You guys are overlooking the WVU/Charlotte connection.

Tons of West VA alum live in and around Charlotte. Oliver Luck is the AD. A short drive on Sat after games or early Sun am and he gets to see his son play.

You can buy me some Newcastles later for this brilliant and epic insight that I'm sure Peter King and Jay Glazer overlooked.

It's about a 6 hour drive to Morgantown from Charlotte.

The following NFL cities are all closer to Morgantown in terms of driving distance:

Pittsburgh

Washington

Baltimore

Philadelphia

Cleveland

Buffalo

Detroit

Cincinnatti

Indianapolis

I just don't see it as that big of an advantage. The guy would hop in a jet. It's not that close.

Only 3 of those teams need a QB and they are a mess.

I think the advantage if from WC teams like the 49ers.

Harbaugh's family is on the east coast. Anyone know where his wife is from?

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
