Report: WVU Football Coach Being Retained in Midst of Major Changes

A new head coach comes with staff changes for the WVU football program. To support what WV Sports Now has been hearing, a report by FootballScoop suggests Rich Rodriguez has made some big decisions as he prepares to put together his new staff for his second tenure in West Virginia.

Rodriguez will be retaining Blaine Stewart, who has worked at WVU the past two seasons as a tight ends coach, for an unspecified role. Blaine’s father, Bill Stewart, worked under Rodriguez on his first WVU staff and then took over upon his exit to Michigan in 2007.

This means the likes of Chad Scott, Jeff Koonz, Matt Moore, Bilal Marshall, Tyler Allen, Andrew Jackson, ShaDon Brown and Victor Cabral will not be back with the WVU football program in 2025.
