The two signed to play for several years home and home. Then WV began to change their minds (Maybe 9 game B12 schedule)and only wanted home buy games (hell no) or move our home games to charlotte (another hell no) So both parties appeared to settle on 1 home and home
WV and Tennessee Both Covet NC recruiting grounds (Tennessee signed several NC players the last few years)
Not much love loss between the two school as of recently. At one time the two schools and fans had a better relationship, but its hard to ignore their constant berating of ECU.

His nephew is gonna play for Memphis.

Just wait until his uncle finds out.
Clay: "Hey Uncle Dana, I'm going to Memphis.. they offered me a scholly."
Dana: "Congratu....wait...Memphis? Don't they play ECU?!?!? Come on kid, you're a loser! You better leave this thanksgiving table RIGHT NOW! You're directly responsible for taking food out of my players mouths!"

I get the neutral site games are all the rage and they only have 3 out of conference games due to the Big 12's schedule but don't say you are trying to schedule up and have those 3 as part of your out of conference. That is laughable. Play ECU, MD and Tennessee or VA Tech. That would be an NFL like schedule on top of the Big 12 slate. Although they are more likely to go 2-10 with that schedule than reach a bowl.
Towson beat UConn by 2 td's last year and made it to the FCS title game , GaSouthern beat Florida last year. Definitely not 2 automatic wins for the Mountaineers
Great point. I will bet the "neers would not have scheduled those if they knew those outcomes earlier
