A Mountaineer Rorschach Test

by 5th Year Senior on Dec 10, 2009 1:54 PM EST in Mountaineer Football

I know some of us have been out of school for longer than we would like to admit but just relax. The test is not hard at all. This test is not pass/fail, in fact there are no grades at all.

All you need to do is, tell me what you see...

Do you see...

A. A team ranked 16th in the nation?

B. A stain left on the stage after a boisterous performance by a Morgantown stripper?

C. Jeff Mullen’s newest offensive play that develops well behind the line of scrimmage and gets stuffed for a 2 yard loss? OR

D. Two Pitt "fans" playing tummy swords to determine which Steelers jersey they will wear to the bowl game?

Maybe this test is tougher than I made it out to be...

I see a team that is ranked 16th in the nation and playing in the Gator Bowl. Nine wins is certainly not the best season ever but I’ll take it this year.

I also see a bit of disappointment. I think back to our two close losses and realize, it could’ve been so much better. Then I remember our coach is only in his second year and is about to bring in more top recruits to fit his system. Things could are looking up!

Of course, I also see a stain. You may think it is nasty but Hummer’s has a great breakfast buffet. Don’t tell my girlfriend and NEVER try the "house" syrup.

I see a team with a better than average chance of ending the season at 10-3 and ranked in the top 15 nationally. But that’s also what I saw last year.

Coaching

I lived in hell for 27 years in that god awful place called Huntington. Had to listen to all them retards talk about how great MArshall was and that they could beat WVU any given day. My fear now is that there going to get a better coach and build the program up and might I said might beat us down the road. We need to get Ed out and get the guy that owns the Diamondbacks in as our Athletic Director. Then go out and spend the money to get Meyer, Trickett, Stoops in as out head coach. Not knocking Nehlen but those years were awful get to a bowl game and lose. WE NEDD TO HIRE A TOP COACH, or GIve Holiday the the headcoaching position and hire trickett as our line coach, secondly and pay all the assistant coaches more money to keep them here, instead of Mullen, and go out and get a offense coach tha knows what the heck is going on.
