HALFTIME: Rich Rodriguez Has Somehow Made West Virginia Football Even More Miserable to Watch Than It Was Under Neal Brown

MORGANTOWN, West Virginia — There was a time when Rich Rodriguez returning to West Virginia was supposed to make Mountaineer football exciting again. The high-powered offense, the intensity, the toughness, the attitude that made his first tenure in Morgantown so memorable. Fans were supposed to look forward to Saturdays again. Instead, watching West Virginia against a 3-6 Kansas team on a dreary November afternoon feels like another miserable reminder of just how far this football program has fallen.

OPINION: Rich Rodriguez Should Stay, But Almost Everyone Else at West Virginia Needs to Go

MORGANTOWN, West Virginia — I’ve been extremely critical of Rich Rodriguez this season, and I believe that criticism has been more than justified. West Virginia football has been an absolute embarrassment at times, particularly on defense, and the program looks nothing like what Mountaineer fans envisioned when Rodriguez returned to Morgantown. But despite everything we’ve witnessed, I wouldn’t fire him. Not now. Not after this season. I still believe he’s the right man to lead West Virginia football.
