MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Pat McAfee is one of West Virginia football’s most publicly visible alums, but the former all-American kicker/punter revealed on a recent broadcast of his radio show that he has been in a self-imposed exile from visiting WVU in the decade-plus since his college career ended.
However, comments from Mountaineers coach Neal Brown on Tuesday led to a response from McAfee that indicates the ice is thawing.
“De’s done a tremendous with the ‘For the Brand,’ Thursday night football, a radio show — the dude’s killing it,” Brown said during his weekly press conference.
