Open Message to Michigan

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Take a look, Michigan fans.

We still have what you want.

You saw it in Owen Schmitt�s face last night. You heard it in the voice of Bill Stewart. You�ve seen it in the intensity of our basketball team.

You thought you wanted our successful coaches. But you are realizing what you really want is our passion. Not just a passion to win. But a genuine passion to see our guys, and to see one another, succeed. You see an entire state showing all the signs of what sports should teach a person. Loyalty, honor, strength in the face of adversity. And you�ve decided to take a short cut. Steal our best coaches so you can savor the profound emotion that we share with our teams. Well, it just doesn�t work that way.

You can spread your cash over every inch of ground between Morgantown and Ann Arbor, ask every one of our coaches to come be a part of the storied tradition of Michigan. And what you�ll find is this: the ones who come are not the ones that have what you seek.

We are Mountaineers

And Mountaineers are always free. You may take this as a statement about our liberties,, but �Mountaineers are always free� means something else. Mountaineers can�t be bought. Neither can our friendship, our respect, or our loyalty. You�ll not get our best guys with your checkbook. You�ll get the guys that don�t fit in here.

You have tried to steal the brains of WVU athletics, without realizing it�s our heart that you envy.

Sadly, you can�t trade your maize for gold, after all.
