One of the biggest challenges for WVU head coach Rich Rodriguez since he took the job at the end of last year has been assembling a coaching staff.
One of the biggest advantages was the resource pool granted to him in his contract, allowing him to be more aggressive in hiring coaches and allowing him to build his staff the exact way he wants to.
When Rodriguez signed with WVU, there was $5,000,000 committed for his staff every year of the agreement beginning in 2025 and at least $2,500,00 for every year of the agreement beginning in 2025 for football support staff.
