| Having watched WVA for the last few seasons, I am becoming a huge believer in Rich Rodriguez. I have always known he was a decent coach, but I always figured that defenses would catch on and eventually slow these guys down.
Of course he has some special athletes right now, but even still, it looks like the WVA train will not be derailed anytime soon. I am beginning to have fewer doubts about what an RR offense could actually acomplish in the SEC. |

| without white and slaton WVU would be a 5 win team, they make that offense go and we all know they can't play d worth anything. Their depth is also horrible. I think if they played 9 confernece games in a real conference rather than 7 they couldn't compete. devine did look good though did anyone else notice he got caught from behind twice? against maryland? I thought he had elite speed? |
