Judgment day has arrived minions. We are getting some official names and filling our staff. Here are my thoughts, not that any of you give a shit what I think.
Doc Holliday - What an awesome get. Not only was he good enough to be considered the frontrunner for HC, he is also one hell of a recruiter. Getting him to leave Florida is great, getting him to take a position lower than what he wanted is brilliant, and paying him WELL to show we mean business is very encouraging for the future of WVU football. I couldn't be happier about this and the way it's being handled.
Steve Dunlap - Nothing says "little brother" (M.R. or not, they are our little brother) like taking your Defensive Coordinator and making him our safeties coach. Fuck you Marshall! Not to mention this guy is a damn good coach. See Dwight Freeney and some of the old badass WVU defenses.
David Lockwood - This fine gentleman is a former WVU player and great recruiter from the Kentucky Wildcats. This is an awesome pickup. He brings in some younger blood, great ties, skill, and will do a brilliant job for us.
Chris Beatty - This is the one I really love that might slip under the radar. This guy is an outstanding HS coach from Virginia, and will really open up our pipeline to the types of guys VT gets (you know, the freakshow athletes, not the child molesting thugs!). Hopefully, we can get some of those dudes here to make our defense invincible. There's a boatload of talent down there, and we could really use that to our advantage. He seems like a confident guy, and really feels like he can market WVU to some highly rated players. But why wouldn't he feel good about it? We're the flagship of our conference, we have a sweet offense, we have a good defense, we win BCS games against the most traditional of powers, and we're close to that region. All combined, this means Chris Beatty is going to load us up with great talent.
So far, Sunshine Bill Stewart is kicking some serious ass with these selections. Not only are we getting great coaches, but we're paying them very well and luring them from good schools (other than Marshall of course!). WVU and Stewart are proving wrong the idiots. We are, in fact, serious about being a top flight program with money to spend on the assistants. I really think we come out of this significantly better than with RR. Way to go Bill Stewart, we love you. Unless we're idiots, that is. Ladies and gentlemen, we are going to have one hell of a staff when this is all said and done!
