Poll: What Are Your Feelings About WVU Extending Neal Brown?

WVU announced on Tuesday morning that director of athletics Wren Baker and football head coach Neal Brown have agreed on a one-year contract extension, that lasts through the 2027 season.

With the extension, Brown will take a $400,000 pay cut to reinvest in the program, per Hoppy Kercheval.

“My first priority was retaining and rewarding our assistant coaches and support staff who have played such a critical role in our success,” Brown said. “I appreciate Wren’s support on that front as well as his continued commitment to me and what we are building. We share a common vision for this program and that alignment is critical to our continued success. There are great things ahead, and I can’t wait to see our incredible fans back in Milan Puskar Stadium on August 31.”

The hype around the 2024 Mountaineers stems from WVU’s surprising success in 2023 and the fact most of the key contributors are returning. West Virginia finished 9-4, including a Duke’s Mayo Bowl win, and 6-3 in Big 12 play.
