Official Nickname Nominations for HC Dana Holgorsen

OK,

After what can only be described as the biggest ass-whoopin’ in College Bowl history, I think we can ALL agree that the future is brighter than ever for the EERs…

That being said, Dana Holgorsen has proven unequivocally that he is the right man for the job, and one of the best offensive minds in the game today.

Accordingly, I think it is time that we put our minds together and finally come up with an official nickname for our beloved head coach.

Everyone in the College Basketball world recognized Coach Huggins and "Huggy Bear." I think it’s time his Mountaineer Football counterpart receives his own unique moniker…

So get creative and post your favorite "handle" for Coach Holgorsen. After we receive everyone’s submission, maybe we can be 5th Year, Country Roads, or WVUIE97 to create an official Nickname poll where we vote for Dana’s new official nickname.

Here is a little bit of inspiration to get your creative juices flowing (Orange Bowl pun intended)…

I call him...

Hulk Holgorsen myself but I like Holgy!

We can then call the team Holgy’s hero’s.

Of course there is also Honeybadger Holgy….Honeybadger don’t care!

God Bless America and the Mountaineers!

nickname nominations for Dana Holgorsen

My vote is for “Professor” because he is an offensive genius. Or, Houdini due to his magic in the offensive world of football.

sorry i cant get excited over a coach that probably will take the next opening out West. We will be stuck replacing offensive and defensive coaches.

Considering he's already building a gnarly house here, and we'll be playing Big 12 teams and such so he can recruit what he knows...

He’ll be here for a while methinks.

How about 'The Holgonator'??

If you make ballsy calls as The Holgonator, you have ‘Holgonads’…..
