They’re bitching about UNC, while they should be complaining about teams like 20-12 Vandy & 21-11 Xavier.

UNC is an easy target given their AD connection as the Chair of the selection committee. Not saying that’s right or wrong but the optics of that are bad.

WVU should have been in the field, but the governor doing this is just dumb and embarrassing.

Morning update here is that this is probably happening. Rumor is a few top donors are throwing around some cash for NIL/etc

This has absolutely ignited a fire within the WVU fan base this week, not that there wasn't already one, but the fan base is sick of him and his continual no shows in big games. He's something like 3-17 against teams ranked in the top 25 during his tenure, and the 3 teams he did beat ended the season unranked. Like someone else said, there's a fundraiser going around to fly a Fire Neal Brown Banner over the tailgate/stadium on Saturday. There is no coming back from this for him.

As someone that drives nearly 400 miles and 7 hours one way for WVU home games, I thought his comments were a punch in the gut. I cannot wait until this clown is no longer HC.

re: Did You/ Do You Smoke Cigarettes?

Posted by Mountaineerfan7 on 10/5/24 at 1:18 am

Not to sidetrack this thread, but smokers, what do you think the best advice or tips for someone trying to quit smoking are? I know you have to want to do it, but what else helped you the most to quit? Do the patches really work that well? I've never smoked a cigarette ever in my life, but my mom is a pretty heavy smoker. I'd love to help her quit.

Hope this is the appropriate thread for this pic. Figured some of y'all might find this interesting. This is a picture of US Troops stationed in Jeffrey, WV in Boone County near where I grew up. This was during the Battle of Blair Mountain, which was nearby.
