Unless you were there, you dont know what you're talking about. The week leading up to that game. Even after we beat Uconn the week before, you could feel the excitement in the air. during the day leading up to the game, and the people were estactic....pre-game the crowd was loud, during the senior introductions, the crowd was loud.....and when we picked off Pitt on the first pass of the game, the crowd was crazy....however, 2 missed fg's, numerous 3 and outs, and turnovers against a 4-7 team while they smack your team in the mouth and take away our shot to play for a National Championship, surely didnt give us much to cheer for......late in the game, when Devine ran the kickoff back to the other 40, and Pat White came back in....the crowd tried so hard to get back in the game, but another 4 and out quieted the crowd....
The crowd/fans were ready.....the team wasnt....

Stewart at his press conference on NLOID, regarding Josh Jenkins (no link, I saw this on ESPN2):
"We're pleased, we're honored, we're thrilled" that Josh picked WV. "He kept his word, and that means a lot around here."

WV assistants will now be making more than the group under RRod last year, but WV's total salaries will be less since Stewart is well below what RRod was paid last year.

6-figure contracts for WVU assistants
Stewart's staff paid more than any of former coach's
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) -- Six assistant football coaches under new West Virginia coach Bill Stewart will be paid more than any of the assistants under former coach Rich Rodriguez, according to figures released Friday by the university.
Doc Holliday, who left Florida to coach the Mountaineers' tight ends and linebackers and is the recruiting coordinator and associate head coach, will earn $400,000 per year in a guaranteed five-year contract, WVU said.

Stewart, Huggins still without deals
WVU coaches working under handshake agreements
MORGANTOWN, W. Va. (AP) -- It's been a year since Bob Huggins' homecoming, and West Virginia's basketball coach still doesn't have a formal contract with his alma mater.
Neither does Bill Stewart, three months after his promotion from interim to permanent head football coach on the heels of a Fiesta Bowl win.
Unlike other universities and professional sports, where getting contracts finalized is a high priority, things appear to be more laid back and old school at West Virginia. Handshake agreements have been good enough for Ed Pastilong, the athletic director since 1989.
"I'm comfortable," Pastilong recently said of such agreements.
Huggins and Stewart, both state natives and staunch backers of WVU, are currently bound by term sheets that pay them $800,000 in the first year of five-year deals.
