PARKERSBURG, W.Va. – Fans turning out to see Neal Brown at West Virginia’s annual coaches caravan got a pretty good idea of how comfortable the Mountaineers’ new football coach is in his new surroundings. For that matter, they also learned how comfortable he was before he even arrived.
Brown revealed that he didn’t exactly go Gucci for his interview with WVU president E. Gordon Gee and athletic director Shane Lyons.
“[I] interviewed for this job in blue jeans,” Brown said. “How West Virginia is that?”
A packed house turned out to a local restaurant for the caravan’s Parkersburg stop, which was filled with the generally good vibes that have followed Brown around the state since his January hire.
