Separate from his support of WVU, McAfee has been a fan of Greene for years and the two Mountaineers became even more aquatinted when McAfee spent a weekend in Morgantown to serve as a head coach during the annual Gold-Blue Game.
Greene helped lead McAfee’s Gold team to a victory in the spring game.

While the answer to that question might be up for debate, the ratings were leaked on June 1. West Virginia owns a rating of 84, according to the current unofficial ratings that are circulating around social media.
