WVU fans voted with their feet, and stayed home.

Either Neal Brown is gone or 2023 is another wasteland season.

Worst WVU coaching career winning percentage in 43 years and 4th worst in history!

Enough is enough!

I’d imagine ticket sales will decline drastically if the powers that be don’t take any action on this.

Missing out on about 30,000 fans per game is missing out on a lot of money. Not just in ticket sales but food or beer as well. Not too mention, the look and feel of a half empty stadium to TV viewers and recruits. All things considered, 16 mil might be a steal to get out of what we've become under Charlie Brown.

Senior day at home, top 15 team coming to town, and fans arent even excited enough to fill 2/3 of the stadium. That is not WVU football.

I went to The Baylor home game because I had an opportunity to do it while I was in town for work. This is the first home game I was in attendance since we played Cincinnati when Coach Stewart was at the helm. I used to have season tickets but kids and family now use much of that time. I cannot get over how awesome the stadium looks, the experience, the accessibility to beer, food, etc… and the lack of alcohol related incidences. It was an amazing game and amazing atmosphere, it was also almost half empty…

We need a splash higher and we need one bad. We really need, in my opinion, Matt Rhule. The new Athletic Director has his hands full.

We need Buckaineer for AD. I think someone said the AD must kiss the BOG's ***. I can't think of a more experienced person when it comes to tossing dudes' salad or smoking their poles.

I can remember being at the field in December 2010 for the Rutgers game while Bill Stewart was coach and people weren't happy averaging 9 wins a season, and the attendance was a little over 40,000 (actual attendance and not announced). We all know what happened after that season.

So, what's changed?

What makes Rhule a "splash"?

First the transition to the air raid, and now the addition of Neal Brown and his player-led woke fantasy team. Time to hire a real coach who is proven and stop following the trendy crap.

Next AD is going to be female. So much for your plan of not being woke fantasy.
