Don Nehlen — Hall of Fame Football Coach
Don Nehlen is widely recognized as one of the most accomplished and respected coaches in college football history. Before arriving in Morgantown, Nehlen built a strong coaching résumé with successful stops at several major programs, including serving as an assistant coach at University of Michigan and later as head coach at Bowling Green State University, where he developed a reputation for disciplined teams and innovative offensive strategy.
When Nehlen arrived at West Virginia University in 1980, he brought a vision and leadership style that helped transform the program and elevate it onto the national stage. Through strong leadership, recruiting, and a clear long-term vision, Nehlen helped transform the program into one of college football’s most respected teams, guiding it to multiple conference championships, major bowl appearances, and consistent national rankings.
His leadership reached historic heights during the undefeated 1988 regular season, when the team advanced to the national championship stage in the 1989 Fiesta Bowl — one of the most memorable seasons in college football history. Nehlen’s lasting contributions to the sport were later recognized with his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as one of the game’s most influential coaches.

Major Harris is widely remembered as one of the most electrifying quarterbacks of his era. A native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Harris first made his mark during his standout high school career at Brashear High School, where his athleticism, speed, and playmaking ability quickly established him as one of the region’s most exciting football talents.
Harris continued to develop his reputation at the collegiate level, where his dual-threat style of play brought a new level of excitement to the quarterback position. His combination of speed, creativity, and passing skill helped elevate his team to national prominence during the late 1980s, including an undefeated regular season and a national championship appearance.
In recognition of his lasting impact, Harris was later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as one of the most influential and dynamic quarterbacks in college football history.
