Another coaching vacancy? Rumor is WVU's Bill Stewart will retire

    No AP link yet, but it is all over the Mountaineer boards.

    Finally a HC gig for Bud Foster?

    I have a lot of friends who are Wvu fans and they all have defended Stewart to the death since he has been there, even though he has done a pretty average job since he has been there. Case in point, this year. They should have run away with the Big East. Needless to say my friends aren't defending him anymore.

    Doc Holliday would be my guess for the next HC

    They'll be happy to get Dick Rod back.

    Classy, yes, but very stupid IMO. You should never make a decision based on emotion and that is exactly what they did with Stewart. He had never been successful either in previous coaching stops

    Reports out that Stewart will not retire and will return next year.

    Same thing with Clemson and Dabo Swinney.

    WVU is reporting Stewart won't retire though.
