West Virginia University football fans are yearning for a revival of the program’s former glory. For many, the answer is clear: it’s time to bring Rich Rodriguez back to Morgantown. His name is synonymous with success, and his return could be the spark needed to make WVU football great again.
Rich Rodriguez made a lasting impact at WVU from 2001 to 2007, transforming the Mountaineers into a national contender. Under his leadership, the team won three Big East Championships, and his innovative spread offense revolutionized college football.
The crowning achievement of his tenure was the 2007 season when WVU reached No. 2 in the BCS standings and was a mere win away from playing for a national title.
