It was a clear afternoon in the middle of October.
The temperature was in the 70s when the WVU team charter landed for the first time ever at Preston Smith International Airport just north of Lubbock. After stepping off the plane four years ago and crossing the tarmac toward the row of waiting buses, a number of players and support staff stopped to soak in the West Texas horizon. I was among them, smartphone in hand, snapping pictures like all the rest.
