Coach Bill Stewart calls his senior quarterback, Pat White, the greatest winner in college football. At 26-4 as a starter, it’s hard to argue with that assessment, statistically.

Good write about something we haven't heard too much about during the down time. They were a different team when he went out of the game, that's for sure.

i agree with you on alot of stuff here but moreno is no where close to the best personally devine is a better runner and all around player moreno started and he only had 1000 yds devine had close to 700 as a backup.plus devine is tied for the longest run without a td. so while morenos been hyped i think he will not be as good as the media thinks. but white is the best no one can say he isnt with a valid argument while tebow has a heisman he also has 4 losse in 1 season so with white being 800 yds away from the all time rushing record for a qb tebow has 1 record and it just goes to show uf depends to heavily on him

Nice article. I've always been a huge Pat White fan, even when I've seen him steamroll my Panthers in the brawl every year. I wish he would play in the NFL as well, but I think he'll still be great this year, I can't wait to watch.

Major was and is better than White up to this point. He got the the National title game twice. How many times has White done that? I think Devine will have a better year than Pat.

Major only got WVU to the National Title game once, 1988 Fiesta Bowl vs. Notre Dame. They went to the Gator Bowl the following year.

Good presentation of a strong case for Mr. White. Looking forward to watching his season. I'm an SEC fan, and I believe White and WVU are 3-0 against the SEC during his years at Morgantown. The SEC gets (at least) one more opportunity against him this season, this time an SEC team from White's home state.
On one of ESPN's Thursday nights, the Auburn Tigers will be playing at WVU. Perhaps of more significance to Mountaineer fans than the visit of an SEC team will be the fact that the SEC team brings with it a WVU nemesis from last season. Pitt's 2007 defensive coordinator Paul Rhoads is now in that role at Auburn.
Thanks. My POTD.

Indeed, the Maj led the 11-0 1988 season; Jake Kelchner "led" the 11-0 1993 season. That was one rickety undefeated season. Kelchner was spelled by Darren Studstill, sort of a proto-Rasheed Marshall, but slower, who got hit so hard in the Sugar Bowl against Florida that year, he literally was looking out of his earhole.
The closest WVU came to losing a game during the 1988 regular season was by 10 points to Rutgers. The average margin of victory in the other 10 wins was about 25 points.
In the 1993 season, WVU got five of its wins by an average of about four points.
