No one would expect them to. Their "hidden arsenal" doesn't hide the fact that they have a below average defense. And I wonder why WVU fans just can't get over the fact that they had to play in Huntington? Yes, it only held 40,000 on that game but it was an AWAY game. It is no different than them going to another school other than the fact that it is a smaller stadium. I guess Huntington is just too clean of a town for them. Get mad at Joe Manchin all you want.

[/ QUOTE ] Actually a city being a dump has a lot to do with the economy. Businesses aren't going to open up in a dump. WVU losing a football game doesn't have anything to do with th economy. If your reasoning is correct, WVU will lose a game soon and all of the new businesses that recently open will just fold up?? Riiiiiight.

Thats probably partly why i cant stand WVU, a lot of my peers became WVU fans as soon as White and slaton began their dominaion. However when we are talking about class i think im confused with what your saying. When i talk about High class im talking about the upper tier of people based upon their income. Kinda like upper class? ya know? I know there are classy people all over this state which makes it better than any other state in this area. But just because i have disdain for WVU doesnt mean i dont like West Virginia. I never have liked WVU when i was growing up, never will. I mean i used to cheer for them when they werent playing tech, but lately all i hear is about how amazing WVU is, so i wouldnt mind for WVU to lose so i dont have to suffer. And as for the economics part, we studied this kind of trend in class last week. When an area can give a product repeatedly, such as a string of excellent fishing seasons, or something becomes more popular in an area, such as football, then the economic rise and the reason for the increased activity in the area are positively related. So one goes up, for instance football creating more tourists to the town, then the economy will rise as well. However, if the trend goes down, then so will the economy. Football and the economy really are correlated.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The freshman class is getting larger every year. My freshman year had the record for enrollment at that time and that was back in 2003 before WVU had done anything significant in football or basketball.

Guest BEAVERTAIL Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 a lot of that i just think is the change of the times. more and more people are going to college, especially in the state of WV. Concord has its largest class ever this year. And take no offense to this, but i wonder how many of those freshan return as sophmores? I bet the partying gets to a lot of them.

WV like it or leave it. win or lose i am a mountaineer fan.. when we were 3-8 i went to games when we were 11-0 i went to games... seems morgantown still stood when we were 3-8, i dont get off by the thoughts of my home state university losing a game in football. if we lose the next 9 games im still a mountaineer fan all the way, and will go to every game i can get a ticket and a day off for. and as far as class goes. My wife is from the athens area, went to school at athens and pikeview where she stared in track and basketball, her uncle is a fireman there and her mom and brother live in bluefield and her grandmother lives in princeton. i went to big creek and my family is all from the War area... and we all have class... so not so fast my friend... high class West virginians are everywhere [/ QUOTE ] Well im glad that you are a diehard mountaineer fan, one of my pet peeves is Bandwagon fans. Thats probably partly why i cant stand WVU, a lot of my peers became WVU fans as soon as White and slaton began their dominaion. - dont get me wrong im WVU all the way..but i was like the only fan around Grundy..now you see like WVU shirts and hats and hoodies at school and it almost makes me mad..just cuz like ...im like "YOUR NOT A REAL FAN GET THAT OFF"..haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
