Neal Brown promises better to WVU fans following sorry performance

COMMENTARY

“You don’t have the luxury of playing football to not work,” said senior defensive lineman Reuben Jones, a graduate transfer who gets it.

Many of his teammates looked like they were on a different page after a hard-fought loss at Baylor 10 days ago.
