Dana has put together a very good coaching staff.

8 wins is great.......but beating up on the other bottom feeders of the Big 12 and not beating at least one of the top teams.....ahhh.......not sure if I would say that is beating "good" competition. Even if we beat K-State, they will be 5-7, correct? Iowa State? Kansas? Texas?

Well - WVU just got a team meeting room & a decent place to practice this year. I would say that TCU & Baylor have:

- better facilities including new stadiums
- better coaches (higher salaries & longer tenure)
- better recruits from their home state
- better financial support from alumni
- better play makers (at least a few)
- better luck the last few years

TCU & Baylor don't win 10 games every year. TCU was 4-8 in 2013 and Baylor was 7-5 in 2012. In 2011 and 2012, KSU had 10+ wins and if they lose tomorrow they will have a losing record in 2015.

TCU and Baylor have won 10 games the past 2 seasons and wvu hasn't come close with recruiting classes similar to what wvu gets. If you look at what rivals has rated both those school classes there isn't much difference between what wvu gets as compared to what TCU and Baylor gets. As for coaching you are right on that point both Patterson and Briles are better than Holgorson. But Baylor was nothing before Briles so that just shows you what a good coach can do. As for facilities just because Baylor and TCU have newer facilities doesn't mean there better. Baylor and TCU may have an in state recruiting advantage but WVU has always had a presence in Florida and Florida athletes are superior to Texas athlete. A troll and Low information poster like yourself would not understand this

its no use explaining to these knuckleheads.

I am still waiting for your explanation about the 4-5 star recruits that K state supposedly has? Since you haven't provided any Information to back what you would claim to be mouthbreathing. I take it that you have accepted your erroneous claims as a lie
