I am a white, Appalachian, male (WAM for short). I played college baseball at Presbyterian College in Clinton, SC where I received a BA in Political Science (1999). I graduated from West Virginia University with a MS in Phyiscal Education with an emphasis in Athletic Coaching Education (2001). I graduated from Union Theological Seminary and Presbyterian School of Christian Education with a MDiv (2007). I am a Teaching Elder in the Presbyterian Church (USA). I am married to Beloved (who is also a Teaching Elder). I work at Presbyterian Church in Nebraska. I am ADHD and extroverted. I am a type one diabetic and prefer stream of consciousness as opposed to well formed thoughts.
I am a DIE HARD West Virginia Mountaineer fan! Let’s Go…
I was in school for 21 years of my life, which means that I know for sure that I don’t know a lot.
"While Jonathan Kimble's actions broke no laws or regulations, the University has discussed this with him and he agrees that it would be appropriate to forego using the musket in this way in the future," said WVU spokesman John Bolt.
West Virginia University football coach Dana Holgorsen has announced that freshman receiver Travares Copeland has left the team for personal reasons. Holgorsen will have no further comment.

From the Seahawks site. This might get me off my butt to see a game.
This made me think, we'll be alright.
The wheels in the sky keep on turning...I don't know where I'll be tomorrow...The wheels in the sky keep me yearning...I don't know, I don't know, I don't---Thanks Journey for this update to the WVU Defensive Coaching search
This is my hope for Nov. 25th around 7:35 PM EST
In the visitors' locker room, the entire Louisville team was heard singing John Denver's "Country Roads" -- West Virginia's unofficial theme song. Wow, but we deserved it!

"We’re all talking two weeks ago about how much difference the fans and crowds going to make to the LSU people," Holgorsen said. "Well, LSU played well in front of 62,000 of our people and then turned around and went home and played a 1-4 Kentucky team at noon with 95,000 people there. You want to talk about an elite program? That’s one. I don’t know about this place."

I'm a mess. After reading this, I'm thinking maybe we won't rattle Lee. Nobody talk to me til Monday!
Thought y'all might like this one. I was at #3! Anyone else?
I've been thinking about this since I watched LSU pound Oregon the first week of the season. I'm nervous, nauseous and pretty freaking excited for this week in Morgantown. Basic, armchair...
I was reading some of the ideas and thinking what a bunch of morons these guys are! Especially the commenter that stated (regarding the Washington State Flag) "ATTENTION: If anyone sees those morons from Washington State who travel to every single game day with their giant flags, will you please kick their arses out of Morgantown?!!!?! I don’t want any of that stuff near my football stadium!!" I hope these aren't the types of people/things that get on national television representing my wonderful state and university.
Schlabach calls us a long shot, which I could see. I hadn't thought of an expanded Big East. That might be interesting
The Thundering Herd (while my least favorite football team in WV) is by far my favorite biscuit from Tudor's Biscuit World. I prefer the potato on the side.
It appears that Ed Cunningham believes that there is still a rift between offensive and defensive coaches. I don't buy it.
In Morgantown we know how to jump couches.
You know hip-hop's mainstream when...this video happens. I once met a female alumnus from the University of Virginia that was pissed that the students were no longer "dressing up" for football...
Great story about WVU recruit Dustin Garrison.
What I like is he has an eye for the pass and what the defense is giving him. 29th in rushing this year at OSU suggests that if he has the personnel to run he'll run. Based on what we've got I'm having a hard time not getting excited.
