In the United States, healthcare is tied to multi billion dollar insurance and pharma lobbies. They tend to have a loud voice and influence law makers.

it gets slightly harder because of different states, but the school you go to can put in money based on amortized rates amd then each school is paying a part of it. It would be amazing for Americans if the NCAA was a forcing function to get a national health insurance plan.
I am trying not to get too political but it just always seemed dumb that Healthcare is tied to a state. Even after the laws were removed to allow for states to sell plans to people in other states the insurance companies didn't do that. So any forcing function to help make Healthcare more attainable is a good thing.

It could be done easily by grouping as a conference. Buy prepaid health care plans for limited things such as physical injury and rehab, (to clarify, not to include disease such as diabetes, bacterial infections, etc) for a period of time with the exception of verified long term injuries suffered as a college player.
Yeah, I was scratching my head on how that season happened the way it did.
I thought if we would have went down to Miami right after that and lost/been blown out, that he was done. But I think Hooker and Jerry Kill saved him that season. If not for that little spark down the stretch I truly think something may have happened then.
I was at the infamous 2019 Duke game and between the results and flubbing the '99 team celebration, I thought he had coached his last game as I was leaving Lane that night
While this would appear to be a step in the right direction, I would like to see more specifics before making assumptions.
But clearly a framework of Rules and some level of transparency are desperately needed. The NCAA clearly has been a bad actor for years, but I would vehemently disagree with anyone who thinks the current Wild West shitshow is in any way a meaningful improvement.
Also, I am 100% for the complete and total elimination of NIL "agents" who are mostly untrained parasites on a broken system.
Wanting your guy makes sense, calling the former Oline coach shit is just well so on point for RichRod.
Literally everyone -- tjbhokie? Outoftowner? Leonard who just absolutely could not turn every single covid thread political? All of em
I feel like I've said this before but for the longest time I thought MacGruber and Bender He Who Shall Not Be Named were the same person.
I do miss MacGruber having "Waho's[Wahoos] suck" in his signature though. Yes, it made him look uneducated as all get out. But every time I saw it, my brain would go heh heh, Wayhoes suck in spite of itself
You're a bigger person than me, then. The ones who crossed the line with me, let the door hit 'em where the dog bit 'em.
I'll be nice and not ask if you'd have felt this way about Alum if he'd been permabanned last fall
WVU OL Coach: https://wvusports.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/jack-bicknell-jr-/4474
He rejoined Rodriguez as a member of his staff after the two worked together at Ole Miss in 2019.
and
Bicknell has more than 35 years experience coaching offensive lines at the collegiate and NFL levels and comes to WVU after serving as the offensive line coach at Wisconsin in 2023.
This reads like RR wanted his guy that he worked with before, that also has a shit-ton of experience in coaching some OLs that performed very well.
Bicknell spent the 2021 season at Louisville, leading an offensive line that helped the Cardinals rank No. 22 nationally and No. 3 in the ACC in rushing and No. 21 nationally in total offense. Louisville ranked first in the ACC in fewest sacks and tackles for loss allowed.
In 2019 under Rodriguez as offensive coordinator, the Rebels were one of the top rushing teams in the nation, finishing second in the SEC and ninth in the country.
Bicknell came to Miami after spending the 2013 season as the offensive line coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers. While in Pittsburgh, Bicknell's unit helped running back Le'Veon Bell amass 1,259 yards from scrimmage, the most by a Steelers rookie.
Before joining the Steelers, Bicknell served as the offensive line coach for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2012, when he directed a unit that was instrumental in helping running back Jamaal Charles return to All-Pro form after an ACL injury cut short his 2011 season.
Seems like this guy knows how to coach an OL.
Hopes and prayers, hopes and prayers.
To the extent the Neil Brown era had any success at WVU it was primarily due to the OL which ranged from good to very good, with many players getting to the NFL. Coach Moore was the primary reason for that quality and until I hear a legitimate reason I will always be baffled by the excuse he was not up to WVU's standards. Rich Rod blew that decision in my book.
I miss MacGruber. Everything ended up in a butt/poop/fart reference but he was a good guy.
i miss literally everyone who doesnt post here any more, even if they drove me absolutely nuts while they were around
We absolutely could have, regardless of what StineyDraw48 would've told you. Former player shmormer player, I do not miss that dude.
Yes especially since he was a pre-season freshman 3rd team all acc pick
you hate to see it for a clear Pry-era contributor

I was there too. When David Cutcliffe- the nicest guy you will meet is calling trick plays up 28 in your home stadium with a crap Duke team- in football... you can't fucking coach. period.
