ive been to like 6 Gator Bowls and NONE is as low attended as the one on now. It's amazing how few people are there. This used to be a big New Years Day game. I bet that stupid patch aint selling either.

Jimbo wouldn’t have won at WVU. He’s overrated big timeIf Jimbo gets WV job he never leaves if he has success. RROD was a special idiot to be a WVian and leave WVU job. Even Detroit Free Press questioned why he ever left WVU being a WV man and former WVU player. Even they thought that was nuts.
Jimbo and WVU would have eventually been in power 5 conference within 3-5 years anyway. Jimbo never leaves that.
He wasn’t coming. He claimed no interest very publicly. He was FSU’s HCIW.Jimbo is the best play caller in college football.
If we had not of screwed up back in 07 and tried to be cheap, he'd have been the WVU Head Coach in 2008. He would have left within 2-3 great season, but he would have been here. The Hang up dealt in bonuses for on field performances. FSU got wind of it (probably due to Jimmy Sexton) and made him coach in waiting for 2 seasons til he forced the issue and beat WVU in the Gator to give Bowden a retirement win.

I know nothing about the Jimbo situation. I do know though that one guy who was all set to move to Morgantown and become our HC was Skip Holtz (from ECU at the time). The Stewart bowl win and too much alcohol fed to certain folks changed that plan. I know this from folks who were within the athletic complex at ECU. One evening Skip had accepted the job offer and told all that were there. Was discussing which assistants wanted to make the move with him. Next day Bill Stewart was our HC.If Jimbo gets WV job he never leaves if he has success. RROD was a special idiot to be a WVian and leave WVU job.

Yeah, ok. I could tell you a lot more but I don't guess there is any reason to.
He only became FSUs HCIW after Pastilong went cheapskate on the bonuses and FSU got tipped off
I know Jimbo's side of it anyways.
There were a lot of MT seats in that stadium. Time to expand the NC Tournament field and ditch these meaningless games.
I like the use of the word MT. That's cool

This is my understanding too. Skip was going to get the job. He was a hot name at the time.
He might have been the second choice after Jimbo, I dont know much about that but there was talks with Jimbo.
That Stewart hire really hurt the program.

Ok so where is Skip today? How successful has he been?
What I reported is dead on fact from a person who was present when Skip was announcing his decision in Greenville and looking for whom he might take with him. This person was among those he want to come along.This is my understanding too. Skip was going to get the job. He was a hot name at the time.
