[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 131868056, member: 1428007"] You are the naive fool. Players are free to make deals with other entities, not with the school. Now I'm sure some schools have boosters that happen to run businesses and they kind of work together to get players that NIL money. WVU most assuredly does too and they are still never getting a QB that Ohio State, Alabama or a host of other schools want. None of that has anything to do with whether a coach can coach. Neal Brown has NOT won at the P5 level as a HC against tough competition as in the BIG 12. He won at a lower level G5 level. The Sun Belt he coached in was NOT comparable to the BIG 12. VT just let their coach go and last I checked, the ACC payouts at VT have been lower considerably than WVUs BIG 12 payouts, and WVU was often above VT in revenues the last several years too. That's where the money will have to come from unless some booster(s) decide to pay it--that's up to WVU not me. You are ASSUMING they don't have any sort of revenue structure to pay a buyout. It simply is not sustainable to keep a coach that has not demonstrated an ability to do what he is hired to do--win more than the previous coaching staff which people like you felt was not a successful or acceptable level of winning. Yet now you wan't to retain a loser that looks to be leading WVU to three straight losing regular seasons? Why would you WANT to retain a losing coach when you didn't want to retain a coach winning at a clip of 8 wins per season (better than the WVU historical average) and against the toughest WVU schedules ever? Your emphasis on retaining Brown at all costs doesn't make any sense. Obviously coaching is a MAJOR component of team success or you wouldn't see so many schools letting coaches go. The present coach at WVU is not performing what he was hired to do. Don't know why you refuse to accept that. I mean, are you really going to feel better if WVU has 5 or 6 straight losing seasons in a row and falls completely off the national radar and more importantly REALIGNMENT radar? Cause that is exactly what is happening RIGHT NOW. There has been no sign of any improvement in any area--everything is worse than previous staff accomplishments or a few areas are the same (defense for example--still blown out in some games, still give up enough to lose in closer games). Honestly though, what does endless retention get you at WVU? There is no reason 3 years in to expect any different outcomes going forward and WVU cannot afford several more years to get to one winning season. [/QUOTE]
