Dana Holgorsen is an Idiot
It's true - according to WVU head coach Dana Holgorsen, Marshall and ECU are taking food out of the mouths of his players:
"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."
It's a shame that neither ECU nor Marshall plays them this year. I hope that either of you absolutely curb stomp them the next time you square off. Hopefully my Tribe can give them more than they're expecting in the opening game.

I don't think us or Marshall will get another shot at Holgerson. He will be run out of WVU after this year and the @$$ kicking they will get in the B12

Yea he will be 0-8,1-7,2-5 in conference. He will be fired, Oliver Luck needs to be gone to. I hope we play them in a BCS Bowl though.

Shame on you ECU and Marshall. How can you live with yourselves?

Probably because his players hadn't eaten that day.

He said that because those schools voted against the player stipend not because he thinks they suck or anything like that.

How much is Holgorsen making? Is it illegal for the coach to buy the players' lunches?

They never recovered that year....poor bastages.
His comments are so out of line that it reeks of resembling those from the renowned Riley Cooper.
WVA has as much chance of ever winning a b-whatever title as MSU or UM have of winning the SEC.
What a fkn moron that guy is...

Are you sure they voted no? I heard only a couple of FBS schools voted no and I'd be surprised if ECU or Marshal are among those schools. The $300 a game is less than $300k a season. Even at the most cash strapped programs, that's less than 3% of their total budget.

Yes, it is. Georgia got put on probation a few years back after their head coach paid for raises for his assistants out of his own salary after the university board voted no. Coaches can not use any part of their salaries to aid players or staff directly.

Marshall and ECU voted NO for 2 reasons 1)It's against the law and could start a tax exempt status downward spiral and 2)It doesn't comply with Title IX and could and would start lawsuits of women for women athletics wanting included.
Utah, TCU and a few other Power 5 voted against it also.
