It has been 17 years since Rich Rodriguez coached on Mountaineer Field with fans in the stands.
That streak will end on Saturday when the Mountaineers collide in the Gold & Blue Showcase. It will give Rodriguez and staff a final chance to evaluate the roster. It's also the last chance for players to shine before the roster is reduced. New rules will allow for just 105 roster spots starting next season. That's a reduction o...

It was a poor performance when it mattered the most. West Virginia's elimination from the Big 12 Conference Championship was both surprising and deflating. A Mountaineer team that defied expectations all season suddenly lost its swagger.
Now what? The good news is that WVU will still receive an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament. The question is whether they can rediscover their winning ways before opening play next week.
