You may know that West Virginia had hired an Oklahoma State assistant to be its "coach-in-wating" to take over after this coming season. But things have gone awry, as the current coach (Bill Stewart, who took over after RichRod left), had actually asked reporters to try to help get negative press for the coach-in-waiting (Dana Holgorsen). First, I did not realize that Holgorsen was born, raised, and played his college football in Iowa. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_Holgorsen#Personal I must say I was more supportive of Stewart, because he seemed like a classy guy who helped WVU win a BCS bowl when he was interim coach. Also, Holgorsen was at least once (and possibly multiple times) thrown out of casinos, probably because he was intoxicated. Now, with Stewart out and Holgorsen in power, I just feel ambivalent or slightly negative about the whole situation. There is one thing I do know. No matter how much I or others wanted Bob Stoops to coach Iowa, this WVU scenario makes me really happy about the way Iowa handled the transition from Fry to Ferentz.
