[QUOTE="wbgvwbgv, post: 129430042, member: 1417056"] Some posters are like a broken record on this site. There isn't any comparison between the Big East and the Big 12. There isn't a lot of difference between Nehlen's winning percentage at WVU and Holgorsen's winning percentage at WVU even in a much stronger conference. And as far as bowl games are concerned, Nehlen went 15 years without a bowl win ( he was only here for 20 years). There are certain fans that are going to dump on the head coach regardless of who it might be or what their record is or what schedule they play. Nehlen is only great now because he isn't the head coach, but when he was he got dumped on just as much as Holgorsen and probably by the same low information crowd. To imply that Nehlen didn't have any bad losses in his 20 years here is ridiculous. Lyons will give Holgorsen a contract extension after the season (through 2020). I would prefer that he did it now because that would benefit recruiting and stop some of the poaching of our assistant coaches. WVU might not be able to knock off teams in the Top 15 on the road, but they are a competitive this year by any reasonable measurement - hats off to the coaching staff. [/QUOTE]
