Rodriguez still finding out his group for this season

Rich Rodriguez is still quite in the procedure of finding out what his West Virginia football team has when it concerns the 2025-26 season.The off-season has actually been one filled with modification, with players coming both into and out of the program, as over 70 new players have been added to the lineup. That can result in some obvious changes.” There are days like this early morning’s practice that I resembled, gosh, I thought we ‘d be further ahead, “Rodriguez informed The Triple Choice podcast.” However I’m quite critical anyways. Looking at their every practice so I’m trying not to make all the judgments now. “Still, the seasoned head coach has actually been impressed with the mindset that his players have actually revealed and how they have actually purchased into the culture and message that he is trying to deliver.”They’ve purchased in. They ain’t got a choice, but I think they’re striving,” he said. Rodriguez confessed that while he wants to say that his roster is

set heading into 2025, that isn’t the case as some players have yet to arrive and the coaches are still taking a look at alternatives.”There’s still a lot of unknowns for me to understand where we’re at and there’s numerous guys that have not

played,” he stated. The Mountaineers roster lost a bulk of their beginners from last season’s group so it’s a different dynamic when it concerns discovering what all his team can do. Still, Rodriguez thinks that his coaching staff and the centers remain in place to have success. Throw on top of that the commitment from a revenue-sharing point of view from the school and the pillars are there for Rodriguez to construct the Mountaineers football program. “We’re going to have enough that we can submit a lineup and pay our guys that have made it in a pretty good clip there,”he said. But for now, the greatest variable is time and while

Rodriguez is excited for the future of the program, the focus now is winning football games this coming season. “So I think that we can arrive quicker

than perhaps in the old days, where you’re taking a couple, two, 3 years. Today, is everything going to happen this first year? That’ll be the hardest obstacle,”he stated.
