SPY SCANDAL IN WEST VIRGINIA

by Stranko on Apr 25, 2006 7:45 AM EDT

It took an action of the governor to bring about a football matchup between West Virginia and Marshall, so the stakes are high for this matchup. That means espionage was going to be almost a given, doesn't it? Well, it has begun. A West Virginia student, who works in the building where the West Virginia coaches work, was busted taking copious notes at a Marshall practice. Although the practice was open to the public, the NCAA prohibits opposing teams from attending without permission. In response, Marshall is expected to burn the student's couch.

West Virgnia's advanced scouting team.

This guy obviously failed Ninja 101.

I like that Rodriguez cares enough to cheat, even if his melon is freakishly huge.

Mosshall gets up for these games like it’s the super bowl and WVU thinks they’re cute. I mean why would a pre-season powerhouse spy on a team that last year went 4-7 in Conf. USA?? I’m more afraid of Eastern Washington.

The kid probably watching the filming of “We Are… Marshall” while doodling “I (heart) Matt” in his notebook. McConaughey or Fox. I know that I’d do either.

Is the picture of Miss Garner just a random spy picture, or is is because she is a native West (by God) Virginian?

Perhaps both. Man, did her brother hit the jackpot.

Not only is she from West Virginia, she was in the Marching Band! (Yes I did watch that episode of “Driven”)

The best part is that the West Virginia student tried to pin it on UAB.

oh how I hate jennie garner – let me count the ways – It pains me to see her on this blog. Snuck isn’t a word, Conan.

The goal of every West Virginia native is to grow up, get a degree, move away, and convince everyone they meet that everything they believe about West Virginia is actually true about Kentucky.

No really. It is.

Except for Jennifer Garner. She claims LA now, which is good because she’s a damned moron and she talks like a valley girl.

At least her kid has a normal name. Props for that.

Who cares if she talks?! Is this the Will&Grace edition of EDSBS or something? That damn clausen kid is infecting the place with teh ghey.

WVU was forced into the series with Marshall, and they don’t like it one bit. Far from thinking Marshall is “cute”, alert WVU fans know that Marshall is very capable of pulling the upset, much like they did in basketball in January. 2005 was Mark Snyder’s first year as Marshall’s head coach, and the Herd struggled. But 2006 is a new year, and the college football world will get it’s first real indication of Mark Snyder’s future as one of America’s great football coaches. Beginning on September 9th. Mark it down.

Being born in Huntington and having my dad graduate from WVU, I do think this matchup deserves attention and respect. I was there in 98 when Randy Moss and the Herd almost upset the Mountaineers. Anyway, i dont see it happening this year with Pat White and Steve Slaton. I still cant get over the spying though. Guess its just a Morgantown thing, like burning couches.
