We are reacting to a BOMBSHELL episode of the Old Grad Podcast where WVU football legend Tim Brown and a panel of former Mountaineer trench-warriors sat down to spill the truth. From the legendary (and terrifying) stories of Rick Trickett and Rich Rodriguez to the modern-day recruitment of four-star OT Kevin Brown, this episode had it all. Tim Brown didn't hold back on what it's like seeing his son go through the process with his alma mater. Is Kevin a a day-one starter at WVU? How much have Trickett and Rodriguez changed since Tim's playing days? In this video: The "Trickett Era" stories you haven't heard. Tim Brown's honest take on WVU's current recruiting staff.

The Mountaineers are on a absolute tear in the transfer portal! We are breaking down the last six massive commitments that are set to redefine the roster for the 2026 season. From a ballhawk safety to the nation's leading rusher, Rich Rodriguez is building a "win-now" squad in Morgantown. The "Super Six" we're discussing tonight: Kamari Wilson (S, Memphis): A veteran "ballhawk" journeyman with SEC and Big 12 experience, brought in to immediately fix the secondary. Andrew Powdrell (CB, UNLV): A late-night addition on Wednesday, joining his teammate to bolster the defensive backfield. Devin Vass (OL, Kansas State): A massive 6'6" Big 12 starter who didn't allow a single sack last season—exactly the protection the new QBs need. David Afogho (EDGE, Bowling Green): A productive sophomore pass rusher who adds much-needed pressure to the defensive front. Malachi Hood (LB, Illinois): A physical Big Ten transfer who provides veteran leadership and starting experience to the linebacker room. Cam Cook (RB, Jacksonville State): The headline-grabber. We're talking about the nation's leading rusher (1,659 yards in 2025) coming to the Mountaineer backfield. In this stream, we cover: Why these specific players fit the Rich Rod system. The updated 2026 depth chart—who is safe and who is competing? What's next? Are more SEC targets like TaRon Francis on the horizon? Support the channel:
