- 🟡🔥 BREAKING: WVU’s Jahiem White Vows to “Shock the Nation” as Mountaineers Eye Big 12 Title Run Under Rich Rodriguez 🔥🟡
Morgantown, WV — July 9, 2025
In a fiery moment at Big 12 Media Days, WVU star running back Jahiem White boldly declared:
> “This year, we’re not coming to play safe. We’re coming to shock the nation.”
This comes just hours after head coach Rich Rodriguez made his highly anticipated return to the national spotlight, facing media scrutiny and responding with a steely grin:
> “We’re not rebuilding — we’re reloading.”
The remarks sent shockwaves through social media and sports talk circuits, as national analysts still project WVU to finish near the bottom of the Big 12. White, coming off an 844-yard season, isn’t buying it — and neither is the locker room.
Insider buzz suggests WVU may unveil a brand-new offensive look at the season opener — something “Rodriguez has been cooking since spring,” one assistant coach teased anonymously.
Meanwhile, former Mountaineer JJ Wetherholt’s Triple-A promotion and NBA Summer League standout Javon Small are only adding to the growing sentiment that WVU athletics is on the verge of a renaissance.
