I suspect WV will go after the proven winner, Jimbo Fisher. Not that it will work out, but I feel I read somewhere there was interest at least on Jimbo's end.
Gerry Faust went directly from High School to Notre Dame.Im trying to think of football coaches who have gotten a head coaching job at a P5 school without having ever coached at the college level. Seems like a huge risk. Granted, we've obviously all seen it work for basketball.
It's worth noting that he appears to have no ties to college coaching whatsoever. College may not be his gig and he's doing fine in the UFL.
How concerned should we be about the West Virginia opening? Because I have no doubt that if Anthony Becht gets the job, Rocco will go with him. Saw that the Penn State OC is interviewing for the job, so that’s promising
Agree. People seem to assume Anthony Becht would be targeted for WVU's HC. Could be they hire a guy like Jimbo and he hires AB as OC or position coach. Jimbo's 59 so maybe he coaches at WVU for 6-8 years and grooms AB to take over.Im trying to think of football coaches who have gotten a head coaching job at a P5 school without having ever coached at the college level.

If you listened to Williams podcast with Anthony he is totally trying to get a collegiate job. If offered the WVU job I would be very surprised if he doesn't accept. If he accepts then it would be irresponsible of their NIL not to pursue Rocco.
Good grief. Some of you people just like to be miserable and create unnecessary drama. The job is Kotelnicki’s to lose. If he’s interested, he’s the best candidate. B12 experience with KU, and proven he’s capable of winning.
Also, I believe this is Bakers first FB coaching hire so it needs to be a good one. Becht isn’t the big splash that he needs.
About as concerned as I should be that Angelina Jolie is going to slide into my DMs and ask me to leave my wife for her.How concerned should we be about the West Virginia opening?

I read somewhere that Jimbo's buyout is guaranteed no matter what. Even if he takes another job.I'm really curious what happens to Jimbo's buyout if he takes a job
Holy crap aTm.I read somewhere that Jimbo's buyout is guaranteed no matter what. Even if he takes another job.
If not already pointed out, I’d be fine rolling the dice with Moberly next year based on what I’ve seen.
If he thinks his dad gave him the best shot at the nfl, he'd go...and he should. That was a main takeaway I got from dad interview. They stayed not because they love ames... but because they had the best weapons to help Rocco. I am a bit nervous about next year because he loses the top 2 targets.Everybody within the program would be pumped if Anthony got the WV job. I said this in the yearly dumb*** Campbell to "x" thread. You all have inferiority complex issues. Rocco is not leaving regardless of his dad coaching WVU.
You think if Rocco turned down huge $ to go to big name SEC schools he's going to leave to go play for his dad at WVU? We have to get past this crap and realize we are effing here. Like this is it we are finally here after all these years of mediocrity. Embrace it, if people leave it's for $ we can't do anything about it. If you want to win and improve your draft stock we are the place to do it. Rocco ain't going anywhere regardless of Anthony and this thread is f'ing stupid.
Would he at first though? I remember many of the posters on here thought FH was a gimmick hire at the time and then he created transfer U and absolutely revamped ISU bball programIt would be a Holberg type move. Risky on the field, but he’d win over the fan base.
