West Virginia has a new head men’s basketball coach in Ross Hodge.
And while the leader of the football program Rich Rodriguez hasn’t met him yet, he does have an idea of what Hodge has been about during his career.
“I know he’s a winner. He’s won wherever he’s gone,” Rodriguez said.
Hodge has gone 46-23 in two-seasons atop the North Texas basketball program with his team having a chance to add to that total April 1 in the National Invitational Tournament Final 4 against UC Irvine.
He had served six seasons before being tabbed to lead the Mean Green as the associate head coach there and also has stints as an assistant at Arkansas State, Colorado State and Southern Mississippi.
