WVU Football Neal Brown Iowa State Postgame | 10/12/24

[@chrisrivera2]

None of these cowards ask him about Rocco Becht? Why wasn't he offered a scholarship? He was better than our QB. Nobody goes after Brown with tough questions. Sickening.

[@Earthether]

Agree totally agree but was that browns fault actually??

[@CMB8819]

I agree with not asking tough questions. Let some of the fans in there to ask questions. Kid gloves are off.

[@chrisrivera2]

@@Earthether I would say after six years he's 32-31 or something close to that. At what point is it his fault? 2-16 against ranked teams? In what coaching profession is that ok?

[@BJtheMountaineerguy]

Because he was barely rated a 3 star coming out of high school. There were barely any P5 programs that even offered him.

[@Greenface35]

The recruiting profiles of Greene and Becht were practically identical. These aren’t the types of questions I would be asking though

[@joeexotic7544]

this team has too much talent to be 3-3 right now and it's very disappointing. ik we have a tough schedule but we should be a 5-1 team right now

[@magicray5088]

Our coaches are good guys, but they need to get us more wins or be replaced. They are good coaches, but not great coaches. I want to hear other coaches dissect our program's weaknesses.

[@bigal25938]

That Becht kid was a pretty good quarterback. He even wanted to play for WVU but he wasn’t good enough. lol

I like Becht but he has really good receivers. I doubt he’s any better than Greene

[@tumbleweedjones]

Becht is of football pedigree. Greene is of baseball pedigree. And it shows.

[@BJtheMountaineerguy]

Neal Brown not putting in a different Center after all of the terrible snaps is absolutely mind boggling

[@thywillbedone1965]

We just got outplayed by a really good team. I thought the coaching wasn’t the factor as much as player execution. It was good to see our defense make some adjustments and get some stops in the second half. It’s always hard to lose, but we competed against a good team tonight and came just short of being good enough to win.

[@hughglass9618]

Trust the climb right?

[@Commentleaver-c6x]

The game was not nearly as close as the score indicated.

[@amandanilles8038]

Neal isn't calling the defensive players, only offense and doing a poor job at that.

Defensive holding doesn’t require a catchable pass and the shove on the interception occurred within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage which is legal. Neal Brown showing his understanding in this press conference….

[@Earthether]

Brown is a quality person but he just doesn’t get it. He is very analytical but can’t seem to call A game to win.. he is horrible w clock management horrible .. And just can’t seem to find the mismatches on defense or create them W his offense which is key

[@chadwaronicki8231]

@@kelseywhitlatch173 the no call on the intentional grounding was pretty wild and calling the holding in the endzone on the ball that was 40 feet over their head was pretty wild. That being said we didn't lose because of the calls... we lost because aiden garnes can't cover, our center couldn't snap, and Garrett had so many opportunities to make plays with his feet and didn't take off. 26 ran like a man possessed. Were those two calls in particular horrible? absolutely. Not the reason we lost the game though.

I understand what you're saying, and I do support Neal Brown. THe frustration isn't in that we lost, it's how we lost. Up 10 with 4 minutes to go against Pitt and blowing it is rough. We looked clueless out there last night. Threw 10 plays away to bad snaps, missing a 20 yard field goal, continued problems in the secondary while getting gashed up the middle. Penn State dominated us, and there's a talent gap there so i'm not trippin about that. I think Neal has what it takes to be a premier college footballl coach, but part of that is being the ceo of a program. Our coordinators are bumpkins. Choosing Leslie over Addae for DC was a failure. Chad Scott is just happy to be there. We need chess players. If Neal can't get some football minds on his staff he's dooming himself. When we fired Vic, we should have retooled the entire defensive scheme instead of having the d line coach try to remember how it goes.
