Bronco Mendenhall resigns

[Boston Vol]

This came out of nowhere. I’m pretty disappointed, but he has the program in a much stronger position than when he took over.

 

[05_never_again]

I thought that was a very peculiar hire from the beginning. He didn't really seem like a good fit there, even though he didn't do poorly.

 

[perico]

He had a lot of backers in both our Dooley and Butch coaching searches. Don’t think he’s an SEC coach but he’s good nonetheless.

 

[hog88]

This came out of left field.

 

[LouderVol]

Wow

 

[peaygolf]

Marques Hagans maybe get the promotion?

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

IDK, this just reeks of a college and coach trying to separate amicably. With va tech making moves, and west va about to make moves (meaning winning on the field)... can't say I blame them. The coaching market is hotter than the real estate market.

Brown leaving WVU? Or has he got a good team for next year?

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Brown is building a team. I like Brown, and so does wv. It's taken a minute to get it right tho.

If he doesn’t win at least 7 next year then he will definitely be leaving.

[Dudleys87]

Couple years and he’ll be back.
Came from the west so I’m sure he’ll end up back out there somewhere.

Mullen to UVA.

Richardson to UVA

0-12?

Pretty sure Richardson won’t be following the guy who mismanaged his snaps.

We go 0-12 regardless.

Mullen to UVA.

I know that you were probably being facetious but I’ve actually seen his named tossed around.I personally don’t believe that’s a good fit. Bill O’Brien, Jeff Monken, and Curt Cignetti seem more in line with what UVA would want.

Of course not. That was criminal.

 

[VolGirl81]

I’m shocked by this unless he misses Utah area/west coat. He does a lot with horses and has a horse farm outside hooville. I thought he was a great fit for uva.

Any Virginia players that Tennessee tries to get??????????????????

They have a TE from Chattanooga Boyd-Buchanan committed that we offered under Pruitt, but I don’t think Heupel was interested.

 

[Firebirdparts]

You know an alum with vast coaching experience? Derek Dooley. That’s a match made in heaven.

Hahaha, that's always a first question when a job opens up.

He wasn't on hot seat was he?

Sadly when a coach resigns out of the blue and not known that was forced out. 2 things. Either health problems or something unethical happened whether violations or like harassment or inappropriate relationship of a female staffer. Hope its none of those things and he just wants to retire. But odd to resign with no details known by anyone.
