West Virginia fans will catch their first official glimpse of new coach Neal Brown when he is introduced as the Mountaineers 35th head coach on Thursday morning. While they’re certain to get familiar with Brown’s personality in the coming weeks, it will still be an anxious nine-month wait before anyone sees what his football team will look like.
Fortunately, his former foes in the Sun Belt Conference have a pretty good idea of what fans should expect from the Mountaineers this fall.
Though interviewed separately, Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson and Louisiana-Monroe coach Matt Viator immediately mentioned the same characteristic to summarize Brown’s Troy teams.
