Garnett Hollis Jr was one of 13 transfers into WVU'd program. He spent 4 years at Northwestern before his transfer. Each of his last 3 seasons his stats reflected his development. He recorded 49 tackles and I think 3.5 tackles for loss last season and 1 int playing in every game for NU.
Half of this board is giving them reason to believe that with how "worried" they are. If I was a WVU I'd be optimistic listening to the cowards in our fan base too.
Yeah, saw that. Very foolish on their part, IMO. — WVU had a bit of an advantage with home field and possible “ first game” PSU jitters. This may have effectively neutralized that, now. — Hopefully our team will respond on the field, and not social media.
If he played at Northwestern he should know better how to lose gracefully.....
Fitgerald’s teams always played dirty. Throwing their helmets at knees. Cheap shots.
Cowards? Is anyone here on the team? I think there is simple skepticism. And getting pushed around under Franklin is nothing new.
What style did psu play when they lost to Toledo?
What are you talking about? The last two years they've beat everyone they should have. This isn't Michigan or Ohio Sgate.
Yes they had more success under Fitzgerald than any other coach in their history
What an absolute joke of a response. The performance of Franklin’s PSU pales in comparison to JVP’s. Big games, best teams? Even more so.
How many teams win with a finesse game? Georgia? Alabama? Michigan? Ohio State?
Ohio State does. Bama does some seasons depending on their roster. Oregon and Washington consistently do. Clemson and OU have.
Joe averaged 9-3 a season for his career. He also had a losing record vs Ohio state and Michigan. Go figure.
Who has ever picked us to realistically go 12-0?
What kind of moron transfers from Northwestern to banjos in the distance West by God Virginia?
That Eastern schedule that PSU played beginning when Pitt got good in the mid 70s from the late 80s was much better than the typical Big 10 schedule during that time. Also during that time, PSU had long standing series with ND and Bama and also a series with Nebraska among others.
The same one they played against USC, Pitt, tOSU, Minnesota, Iowa, and Michigan when they went 5-7, that year. . Toledo went 10-1 that year.
10-1 doesn't make losing to Toledo any better--Toledo couldn't even win their division in the MAC
Moron?
What's your definition of a down season? Anything less than 12-0 ? If that's the definition then I would posit that most every coach in college football has had countless down seasons.
More than 2 losses (espeically when they played 11 games) and Paterno had some horrible seasons even between the titles in 82 and 86.
Two National championships and probably deserved at least a couple more. Building a program from an obscure regional team into a national powerhouse, generating a second to none fan base packing 106,000 in to see us play Kent State is all you need to know. Next.
Did we have down years during that time frame?
Based on that measure, even Nick Saban had 10 down seasons in his 28 years of coaching. Just saying.
You think Saban lost more than twice 10 times?
Pretending is not accepting reality. Like believing theast 2 years didn't happen when analyzing 2024
