Episode Details

Can Rich Rodriguez really lead West Virginia to one of the greatest rushing seasons in program history? After Schuyler Callihan projected the Mountaineers to rush for over 3,000 yards, I decided to dig even deeper. I studied every elite Rich Rodriguez offense—from Pat White and Steve Slaton at West Virginia, to Denard Robinson at Michigan, Khalil Tate at Arizona, and the Jacksonville State teams featuring Cam Cook and Rick Trickett. What I found surprised me. In this episode, I break down why I believe the 2026 Mountaineers could rush for 3,425 yards, where that total would rank among Rich Rodriguez's greatest offenses, why the Big 12 has already provided the blueprint, and how Cam Cook, Michael Hawkins Jr., Amari Latimer, and Rick Trickett could make it happen. Is this prediction too bold... or is history telling us it's actually realistic? Let me know your projection for WVU's rushing attack in the comments! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
