[QUOTE=".Bodhi., post: 131438872, member: 1683017"] I liked Dana as a "dude" and even the "face" of WVU football. I liked how his persona irked the good ole country boys who still tried to play up the "aww sheeeeet, gotta be camo-wearing, baccy-spitting, kerntry boy to coach ma eers, even doe i ain't never even been da Morgytown." Say what you want about Dana, but he was cool enough to make him a favorite of the guys at Barstool and the less corporate sports media. When your state, school, and location aren't immediate draws, you need something that has a "cool" factor. Dana had that [I][B]potential[/B][/I]. Unfortunately for him, he seemed to have a high school coach's level of dedication...for which I don't fault him. I don't blame him for going 9-5 like the rest of us do. But when your position's peers often go 6-10, you're in the wrong role. [/QUOTE]
