COMMENTARY
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Trust the climb.
It’s hard to think of a better-crafted motto than the one chosen to represent Neal Brown’s first West Virginia team.
Mountaineering is a precarious business. You’re supposed to wear a helmet in case of falling rocks, and attach a rope to slow a fall. From a wide-angle lens, it’s clear the mountaineer is moving up. Up close, though, it probably isn’t always easy to see progress.
It will be important for fans to keep that in mind. Brown has re-energized the fan base and will get the program moving upward in short order.
