- This overtime sack was the loudest I have ever heard Mountaineer Field. My headsets generally insulate me from the noise. Not this time. It was deafening …
00:00 - The lives he touched outside the lines will always be better because he was here. I worked w/Neal Brown closely. I saw the good & the bad. The things you heard about what an incredible person he is? All true. He’s not a good man. He’s a great man. Thanks, Coach. Best of luck.
- Stop and consider this in a sports city like Pittsburgh. This record wasn’t set with Notre Dame, Ohio State or Clemson in town. It wasn’t set against the Baltimore Ravens, Green Bay Packers or Dallas Cowboys. It wasn’t set against the Dodgers, Cubs or the Yankees. It was WVU.The largest crowd to ever watch a sporting event in the city of Pittsburgh …
00:00 - Neal Brown was hired at West Virginia less than two weeks ago and one thing is already clear. He gets it, in a way that very few do. People. Not coaches.
- The largest crowd to ever watch a sporting event in the city of Pittsburgh …00:00
- As the story goes, a former Pitt football player working in the marketing dept. came up with the idea in 2008 to start playing Sweet Caroline at games. Why Sweet Caroline? Because he felt the song lent itself to incorporating “Pitt-centric” terms. Boy was he right.
00:00 - Four years ago tonight Neal Brown's first Troy team, banged up & young, lost by 3 to the best team on their schedule. Baylor tonite made the plays an unbeaten team makes to stay that way ... But it was Neal Brown's young Mountaineers who fought like champions. Trust the climb.
00:00 - This is what a coin toss is like at a sold out Mountaineer Field ...
00:00 - We have a guy that does a lot more than coach football, folks. After a tough few months of her latest battle w/cancer, my wife was going thru a rough patch. Today she received this surprise from Neal & Brooke Brown and the entire WVU football family. We're so incredibly touched.
- Your hoops team might be cool … But they aren’t “Beat No. 2 in the country on a day they’re honoring The Logo” cool. Coach DeVries & crew now 3-1 vs Top 10. Wow.
- HBO's Hard Knocks: Rookie Baker Mayfield was told to sing at Browns camp. You'll never guess what song he picked ...
00:00 - Most yards allowed by Virginia Tech in its 13 games this year... 1. West Virginia - 592 2. Oklahoma State -488 The Hokies held ACC teams to an avg. of 302 yards/game. (No. 1 ranked Clemson had 332 against them)
