OK....And?

Ok, I'm not on twitter. What's the deal?

Surely you already read the thread in this very forum but this cuts to the chase.

Quote:"The major conferences breaking away from schools like East Carolina and Marshall, I think that's got some legs to it, but whether it happens or if I'll still be coaching when it does happen, I don't know," Holgorsen said. "I hope it happens because they're the ones holding us back from being able to feed our players three times a day or from being able to pay them just a small stipend to make their lives a little bit easier so they're not starving to death at specific times of the year."

- Dana Holgorsen

East Carolina fans, be sure to bring up his unmatched ability to lose to Syracuse. His West Virginia teams are 0-2 against 'Cuse and have been outscored 87-37.

Sounds like they need to lower the price of their meal plans if they can't feed their players 3 times a day. We all know that college kids get up extra early to make sure they get some quality breakfast in their system. I grew up in an apartment complex that had a good portion of the Kent State football team with the lineman always living together and they had no problem with eating 3 meals a day. I can't remember his name but I do remember him being #65 would be outside grilling year round in shorts, a tank top and flip flops. If WVU really needs the money maybe we could send them some.

I remember the last time I drove I-79: it was littered with the carcases of emaciated WVU football players and burned couches. Oh the humanity (and sofanity)! Please, deliver the Mountaineers from any association with ECU & Marshall so they can at long last give their offensive line a bowl of gruel!

And you forgot about the beaten PG LSU fans!

I tweeted the red cross last night asking for help for those poor Neer players. I just don't know how we can spend time worrying about starving people overseas when we have starving college football players in West Virginia. It's really a travesty. ECU and Marshall should be ashamed for not allowing WVU players to eat.

You guys really have your panties in wad over that huh? It's Eers not 'Neers btw.

Far from anybody having their "panties in a wad," everybody thinks Holgorsen's wadded panties are hilarious.

IMO none of this crap is worthy of comment. Holgorsen was responding to a BS question he never should have been asked, and didn't have to answer. He was being polite to the reporter, and this crap is the result, which is about par for the course in today's society...

Why are we still talking about this? They were stupid comments, we've had our fun, and now the joke is old. Let it die.

In all fairness I like WVU. The comments from the coach were just crappy.

That's just classic right there.

WVU has always been one of ECU biggest allies in the college football world, not sure why you guys are making a big deal about it. I honestly don't think Dana knows a damned thing about your program and just kinda lumped you in with Marshall and that's certainly not a fair thing to say. He's just not an east coast guy. I think we can all agree Marshall is about as small time as a program can get.

Holgorsen's mouth will cost him his job in the near future.
