Other Football:

• Shane Lyons issued what every coach wants, a ‘statement’ prior to the Towson game
• WVU hasn’t been ranked for a single week during the Neal Brown era
• Chris Anderson at 247 points out that if you’re the market to hire a new coach you should consider a guy that’s currently a TV analyst somewhere.
• Oh, look. Former WVU players involved in a sideline fight during a former WVU head coach’s game. Things seem to be going well at Houston.
