MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — It’s homecoming week for a pair of Kansas State alums on West Virginia’s coaching staff.
Mountaineers defensive coordinator Vic Koenning isn’t working on his first football fixer-upper. He was a senior defensive end on K-State’s first bowl team in 1982 after being recruited to one of college football’s losingest programs.
“Manhattan’s a beautiful town,” Koenning said. “I have a lot of great memories of playing there and going to college there. I don’t have any negative thoughts [about] there.”
He returned as the Wildcats co-defensive coordinator in 2009, and hasn’t been back since that one-year stint.
