WVU football: Ryan Nehlen continues family legacy in Morgantown

The former WVU football player has a new job as offensive analyst, according to the Dominion Post. Nehlen will assume the role vacated by Dan Gerberry, who was promoted in the offseason.

Nehlen is the grandson of longtime WVU football coach Don Nehlen. Ryan’s father has more than 30 years experience as the Mountaineers’ equipment manager.

Nehlen was most recently a graduate assistant at Michigan, where Don was an assistant before his head coaching roles at WVU and Bowling Green. He is a Morgantown native and knows the land well. Plus, as a former player, he knows the ins and outs of the operation.
