No, that would be expected if the WVU players pushed for Rodriguez to be fired and replaced with Stewart. The fact that Rodriguez quit of his own volition, and the players then had any particular preference for Rodriguez's replacement, doesn't make it "expected" that they'd have issues with Rodriguez's coaching style.

This should be obvious. Now that Rodriguez is no longer his coach, Pat White stands to make no gain nor suffer any harm as a result of whatever comments he makes about Rodriguez. Current Michigan players, in contrast, are likely to pay a price for publicly criticizing their head coach - as would be the case at most any school. That doesn't automatically mean that any compliments Michigan players pay to their coach are insincere, but there clearly is a difference in the amount of honesty that can be assumed in the two situations.

RR got his second QB in Shavodrick Beaver.. After Newsome committed, it was basically a race to see who would commit to fill in the 2nd QB spot between Forcier and Beaver.. Forcier wanted to take his time a little bit so Beaver jumped at the spot.. I don't know if a 4* QB would want to come in with two other 4* QBs when he could be basically be guaranteed playing time (Not guaranteed, but you all know what I mean if their the only QB coming in) but we got the 2 RR needed. A 3rd would be very interesting if the instance came up.. We're still in dire needs of 2-3 DEs this year..

Hope you get 12 more just like them.

I'll never understand QBs going to the same school. RBs? Fine...you need more than one. WRs? OLine? Of course. But QBs? How does that work?

Well, Newsome and Forcier he sold them on the Tebow and Leak duo.. They both like that.. and Beaver he sold him on "If you come in and work hard, you'll play." Beaver said he's fine with 3 QBs coming in this class and Newsome said a while back RR said he's taking more then 1 QB and he's fine with that as well. It all depends on Forcier.

Good. Bring more in. QB controversies and QBs transferring in anger will do the program good.

Of course, those QBs will be fat and lazy.

I'll be shocked if Forcier leaves the west coast, though State Penn fans are harboring delusions of reeling him in.
