Pat may be right but he needs to stfu. Great player but he has never deserved the hero worship he gets from our fan base

The defense sucks so the solution is to hire... Lane Kiffin? GussingWhite see the game that got Kiffin fired in the first place? Might as well hire Texas' former defensive coordinator to sure up the rush defense too.

That twitter message is in the article i posted. I interpreted the Kiffin hashtag to mean he was equating DH with Kiffin, meaning that just like USC pulled the plug on Kiffin, WVU needs to do the same to Holgorsen. Not that he wants WVU to hire Kiffin, which would be a really strange idea, eh?

What am I missing? This is only his 3rd season. His first 2 seasons were decent. What's the rush to fire him?

You're just joking, right? Name me 5 better and more important players for WVU in the last 25 years.

His first season was a smashing success. His second a failure.

Every one who says something negative about Holgs is being a jealous hater. Thats what we were told last week

I'm talking about off the field. He's not the saint that our fans make him out to be.

Tavon Austin, Geno Smith, Stedman Bailey, Steve Slaton, Owen Schmitt, Pacman, Chris Henry, and Don Barclay. I could go on with the list. But you get the point. Pat White was a very good player for WVU. But it was simply due to the system he was running. Everyone on that list has had a better NFL career than White, and I could name a dozen more if I wanted...
I agree with OGB. Pat White needs to STFU on this. He's not involved, and is simply reacting as a fan of the program, without thinking through everything involved...

WVU fans will throw one of their greatest players ever under the bus in order to carry the water for a degenerate drunk who's burning their program to the ground. Sad.

You have it backwards, one of our greatest players is throwing our program under the bus. What good can come from his comments?

It's amazing how many experts on WVU's coaching issues we have, both here on this board, and within our own fanbase. And IMO everyone is a t-shirt fan...
