It has been a very disappointing year for WVU football fans. The Mountaineers started 2-4 and have been outscored 144-58 in those four losses. And it appears several people around the country are waking up to just how bad it has been for West Virginia under Rich Rodriguez in his first season back in Morgantown.
Earlier this week, Sports Illustrated's senior college football writer Pat Forde ranked notable first-year head coaches and how their seasons have gone to this point. And coming in next-to-last on the list was the Mountaineers' head coach Rodriguez.
To no surprise, Bill Belichick – a legendary former eight-time Super Bowl champion and current head coach at UNC – ranked as the worst on the list of first-year head coaches.
