At 4-4, how the final four games of the regular season go for West Virginia could decide Neal Brown’s fate. Brown has had an up-and-down tenure leading the Mountaineers. While he looked like a goner two years ago after his former boss Shane Lyons was fired, Brown somehow survived year one working for a new athletic director in Wren Baker, who came over from North Texas to replace Lyons.
While I wrote about how Texas A&M offensive coordinator Collin Klein could be an ideal fit to replace Brown, that may have been a bit premature. Then again, so would the nature of firing Brown at this time, simply to hire the big name out there with strong West Virginia ties. Yes, I am talking about Clarksburg native and former Texas A&M and Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher taking over.
On a recent episode of Couz’s Corner, host Justin “Couz” Walker, who covers West Virginia sports extensively, shared with his YouTube viewers some precious intel on the WVU coaching situation. He divulged that if West Virginia were to move on from Brown that Fisher would be “highly interested” in taking over the Mountaineers program. Fisher seems like he is ready to come home to West Virginia.
