Bill Stewart Promoted Head Coach

Nice to see WVU keep him as Head Coach. He deserves it and the players really seem to respect him.

Bear may have been the best, but I go back to being at one school only which puts JoePa over the top in my opinion. Having unbeaten/untied teams in 4 consecutive decades at the SAME school is unprecedented, and he was dangerously close to making it 5 straight decades two years ago (but for some odd clock mechanics in Ann Arbor!!). People often overlook the fact that Joe Pa was an assistant at Penn State for SIXTEEN years before getting the head job in '66. He starts his 59th year coaching at the institution next year.
