Round of Reubens

WVU got smacked by Pitt last night. (As Wannstedt watches the Peterson Event Center pull in 12,000 for the game, do you think he takes pride in helping create a Duke-like basketball school?--tummysticks). We really need a good showing in the Big East Tourney or we'll be in the NIT while Maryland is in the big dance. Please God, don't let that happen. The phone calls on Selection Sunday will be unbearable.

Great WVU football roundup from the Charleston Daily Mail:

Spring practice, by the way, will begin Monday. It will end April 7 with the Mountaineers' annual Gold-Blue Game.

SPEAKING OF Brown, a versatile athlete whom colleges also recruited for basketball, there is talk that Rodriguez and Co. will use him as a receiver in some sets in order to get him onto the field.

He is simply too athletic not to do it. Plus, the playing time -- albeit not at his natural position -- might pacify him and perhaps silence those rumors about his impending transfer.

The article also goes into the new coaching staff, slightly, and discusses their ramifications on future recruiting.
