Tommy Bowden born in Alabama
Terry in Georgia
Although both went to school in Morgantown and played @ WVU I don't know that you could call them Native WV's. Bobby was only in Morgantown from '66 to '75.

Maybe not native but WV is considered home. Both married girls from Morgantown.
Terry is remarried from time at Auburn. Tommy comes back for visits but keeps a low profile.
Holtz says birth in WV was due to closest hospital only. He only recognizes Ohio as where he grew up so putting him on list has an asterisk in my book.

Grobe did an excellent job at Ohio University. The Bobcats were bad until he arrived in Athens, and have been respectable ever since he coached there.
