I could not believe these two cornholes yesterday on the radio. Colin Cowherd said ” There may be only one player on WVU’s defense that could play for Georgia.”
He also said ” If it’s Ohio State and USC in the Rose bowl that will be the best game”
Herbie said ” Ohio State will not get any credibility for beating PHHHHHHHHHH West Virginia.” He actually made a noise of disgust before he said West Virginia. Don’t believe me? Listen to this crap [Podcast]
Cowherd then said, “We just need to embrace this season as the year of the one year wonders and all the big programs being one year away. Everything will be back to normal next year.
The pre season top 5 will be USC, Florida, Ohio State, LSU and Georgia. We won’t see the low tier programs next year.”
Herbie agreed. I say Fuck you, you shameless homer.
That makes me sick. Ohio State has notplayed any team of consequence all year long and then lost late in the season on their home field to an unranked team – and now Herbstreit would be upset if they were to win the national championship because it would WVU they’d beat??? He should get slapped in the mouth for that one. And he doesn’t have to worry about a lack of credibility for beating us, because they’re not going to. Man, I’ve been wanting a WVU-OSU title game, but their idiot fans are making me root against it just so they miss out on it, and get killed by USC.
I think these people are idiots, and they know they are. The problem with ESPN and most of these radio shows is the fact they no longer discuss sports objectively. There is nothing wrong with giving their opinions, it’s just the way the deliver it. They all have hidden agendas, and it’s all about ratings. The reason they try to bash us is because they know we have a large fan base they will call, email, or write the show and tune it, this gives them ratings, and some sense of accomplishment.
It’s all about saying shocking things, and the fact that they say something different every week about the same thing proves it. They don’t want to hear facts, they don’t care that WVU has only lost 3 or 4 games in 3 years. They don’t care that we smacked the might SEC Champion in the Sugar Bowl in their own backyard and then led the comeback against the mighty ACC.
Then they want to talk and say we have a gimmick offense, it doesn’t work, but then you look around and there are 15 different versions of our spread in the Top 25 alone. Yes, Herban Meyer learned the offense from Coach Rod.
They don’t want to hear why 200 coaches come to Mo’town every year to get advice and learn the basic principals of the spreak offense from the Gold Standard RRod. They don’t want to talk about how every open coaching position they all wish they could get RRod, they don’t want to talk about how the supposed “Big Boy” programs like Alabama get pimp smacked and turned down by a lowly WVU coach.
What you’re hearing now (especially from Herbstreit) is how they REALLY feel about West Virginia (or any Big East program). They don’t mind talking us up when we’re an upstart little program that’s no real threat to their traditional powers. But now that we’re a real threat to become one, their true feelings come out.
At least Cowherd is consistent — He’s always been a tool — I’ve posted on here before that he’s not worth the time spent typing his name. He’s a failure as a journalist and can only justify his existance by being inflammatory — and with us, he knows he’ll get a response (i.e. an audience).
Herbie is the worst kind — He’s basically a phony — Unless you’re name is Ohio State (or other Big 10 program) or USC, you have to take any good word he says about you with a snow shovel of salt — because once it becomes clear that you’re a real threat to his gestalt, he goes on the attack……
Herbie is one of the big reasons I hope OSU does not get to the national championship game……a one loss Big East team gets in over his one loss Buckeyes — let him chew on that until next fall….
or he can chew on this right now:
I’ve said it before and I will say it again, if any of the teams out there think that WVU isn’t very good, call our AD and put us on your schedule. That is if you got the balls….
