Another Press Conference Slip: Brighter Days in Arizona? Neal Brown Needs a Break from Morgantown

[@ygrezzie]

If he wants a break then give it to him.. Permanently! #FireNealBrown

[@shaggyofwv]

He’s pissed at the fans for calling out his terrible coaching, so he keeps taking jabs at us in his press conferences. This guy has never taken responsibility for any of his poor decisions. #FireNB

[@Greenface35]

Yeah and then our AD sends a letter saying we need to continue to support this team and NB. I’ll continue to support the team’s failings from home. Y’all know better than the fans anyway

[@pitchshot2868]

@@Greenface35 AD is just like NB and needs to follow him out the door. WHY to all these AH show up at WVU ?

[@magicray5088]

I didn't like him saying, its good to be away.. ... NObody is against Neal Brown ... Neal we are against our Football program playing the way they are... your softness is killing me...

[@6Years7YearsNope]

Can’t have it both ways. Confusing statement. That’s like saying you hate your marriage but love your spouse.

[@itsnotokgolf]

The worst part by far has been the apathy from the players on the field. We don't even look like a team who gives a shit. Even when we were off before we at least had guys who acted like they wanted to be there. Under Neal Brown, we're not even Mountaineer Football anymore, this is just some cruel f-kin joke at this point.

[@Greenface35]

Apathy from the players is when you know the coach’s messaging has gone stale

[@Goeers206]

You don't think the toxic fanbase and how they have been acting hasn't influenced the players? Why would you want to play for so called "fans" that not only talk ill of them, but also harass their families. You all are just as much a part of the problem.

[@Greenface35]

@@Goeers206 I haven’t harassed a soul

Just got the uniform reveal for the Arizona game. I never really cared for these ' reveals' to begin with, now I care even less. Anyway, wardrobe obsessions seem a bit effeminate to me. I just want to win . How about that for a change ? Not just Arizona, I wont be satisfied until we start beating ranked teams.

[@6Years7YearsNope]

I could care less abut the uni reveal.

[@amandanilles8038]

As a lifelong Mountaineer fan, i say LET'S GOOOOOOOO. As a fan under this Coach, I say JUST GOOOOOO NEAL BROWN! If he had any kind of honor, he'd just resign.

[@jonpark6650]

NB is not under the microscope for being edged by Top 25 opponents. NB is under the microscope for being THRASHED TWICE at home by two Top 25 opponents. After getting trounced by Penn State last year at Penn State, NB went to work to welcome Penn State to Morgantown this year. NB's efforts in getting talent, preparing the talent, coaching them up to get some payback led to an even BIGGER TROUNCING in front of the WVU HOME CROWD. NB then followed up after jumping on Albany with a dramatic collapse at PITT after being 10 points up with less than 5 minutes to go in the game. Fans still hoping to see the season salvaged even yet, saw NB lose the next 2 out of 3, the losses coming at large home crowds. These losses were no doubters and were embarrassments to the WVU program. After reflection, NB reminded us that tailgating was still fun with little hope of things on the football team being addressed or turned around which leaves WVU faithful looking for an answer........

[@6Years7YearsNope]

Soooo the end result is he’s not a good coach?

Hey man if it was me I would like getting on the road and release the pressure lol!!

[@timothygreen7708]

I have always been positive but even I think now that it's time for a change however keep your heads up I think we will be there Arizona 24 to 17 if not more and I've always loved your guy's show I hope you read this.

Just now huh?

Neil Brown, “Wait, it’s under promise and over deliver?”

Maybe it’s the Jordan Lesley era …. Maybe ?

[@davidwilliams4498]

Looks like GG an our NFL left tackle won't be playing. Gonna find out if Nicco is the answer next season. A game we have to have our DB pass defense has got to stop waiting in the zone an get up an challenge receivers. We clearly would be 5 an 2 even if our DB pass defense was kinda average. Nothing new even Holgerson was booed out of town for pass defense getting lit up. Look up the scores on Holgerson record an you will clearly see bunch of games offense scored plenty to win though defense got lit.... Everyone knows brown won't get rid of his Joke zone buddy from Troy I guess he gonna go down both together. Been a WV football fan big time for many decades an I been really wanting WV to fix the DB pass defense. It hadn't happened in years. The group as a whole we have had a few DB go to NFL though 1, good player can't save the other few from getting lit up ..

[@bobfox2733]

Part of a good pass defense is the D line able to get pressure on the Qb which doesn’t happen very often. The quicker a pass has to be thrown the better chance for incompletions.

[@IndyGuy65]

WVU v Az will be better than watching FSU get killed by Miami. Go Mountaineers.

[@BigE7375]

Let's look at this in a positive way for just one minute. This is the Guantlet part of our schedule. We were predicted to go 0-4 in these games if we can finish at 2-2 this is actually a win for the team. I agree it's not good enough. But just pinde3 on thay for a bit

[@6Years7YearsNope]

Let’s not look at this way.

[@rollme1kenobi768]

Is Marshall putting out psa's? Wren i read your letter. I DID MAJOR IN FINANCE. Wvu - Neal Clown = $$$$$$ the university desperately needs apparently.

[@tutnod2449]

You all haven't trusted the climb hard enough. It's your fault.

[@scott68fl]

I'll sub as long as you're not in the, "Who can kiss Neal Brown and Wren Baker's ass the most?" competition! These 2 clowns have ruined the wvu football brand and the wvu sports media industry is 99% to blame!!!!

[@petewilcox3354]

he is in way over his head at this level. has been from day 1.

[@tutnod2449]

Reality check #1: Brown isn't even paid in the top 10 in the Big 12. Reality check #2: Brown has won more P4 games as a head coach than any of you. Reality check #3: No programs are entitled to wins, including WVU. Reality check #4: Whining and complaining over a form of entertainment makes you look foolish. Reality check #5: WVU has a ton of Fairweather fans.

[@gsmyrna7469]

You are making a mountain out of a mole hill. And want he was talking about was his player listening to all the negatively on campus

[@6Years7YearsNope]

Yeah but…….

[@bb-fe9ur]

We have 12.7 million left in his buyout. Gee needs to go too, what an idiot ever approving Brown's unbelievable buyout contract for a mediocre coach. Lyons must get some $$ if Neal is fired. Im surprised they've beat anyone. People blame the offense but his crap defensive strategy has been killing ever chance his offense ever had. I didn't want Brown from day 1, I wasn't impressed with him at Troy. Last years team won in spite of Brown not because of him

[@pitchshot2868]

Funny Gee’s 150 VP ‘s and not one was or is going to be let go as long as he is their?

[@-The-Stranger-]

I mean put yourself in his shoes, the fans are pooling money to fly banners that call for his head. What if you went to work and your customers were doing that? Would you wanna be there? No, and you'd probably say a lot more divisive crap about it than he is. Let's be honest with ourselves and be consistent. Be angry with the program all you like, but let's not act like the guy is being treated well at home. Not when your player's and their families are being literally harassed by crazed fans inside a freakin' supermarket.

[@6Years7YearsNope]

So what are you really saying?

[@Goeers206]

@6Years7YearsNope It's really not hard to understand. Why would you not want to get away from a toxic environment and get a break from it all? No one likes constant negativity, and you all act like the players and Brown enjoy losing. It's disappointing enough for them to not have to be surrounded by constant trolls. Since when has berating and belittling people ever made them better?

[@Goeers206]

@si018 So because he makes money and the players have scholarships and NIL deals, they should have to be subjected to so called "fans" acting like disgusting individuals towards them? The only true disappointment this year is the vocal fanbase of degenerates that think the interactions between the fans and the team, staff, and their families is acceptable behavior.
