Joe Manchin visited our plant here in Washington Wv today. I was part of the plant leadership that hosted him. I told him
That I noticed he was in Morgantown yesterday and was with Nick Saban. I asked him if he was giving any thoughts about becoming the WVU president next year. He told me that he has been hearing rumors but he really hasn’t thought about it but anything was possible. I asked if he could talk Nick in to coaching a couple of year. He said they were good friends, but we couldn’t afford him.

He went on to say that he tried to get Jimbo to come when he was leaving Florida State, but it fell through. He said Jimbo is really bitter about Texas A&M and he knows he would consider coaching WVU. So, I asked him if he would become president, talk Nick into AD if Wren left and Jimbo as coach. He said that he didn’t think Nick and Jimbo could ever work together again, but he would perhaps consider president because he loves West Virginia and the university. Was an entertaining conversation.
