RichRod Wants You! And You. And, hey you, yeah, c’mon…and…

We already know that Dickie was going after some seriously high quality athletes, based on his tryouts last Spring.   (#38 will always remain my boy.)

But now, Richie Rich wants to get more, and more and more walk-ons, in a hope to simply overwhelm competitors with numbers…

“Next year, we hope we can get (the numbers) up there (to 125 or 130)”

50+ walk-ons?  And they’re going to provide the competition for your schollie players?  Is recruiting suffering up there or something?  (the answer is no)  I just don’t get it.  I mean, I’m all for walk-ons (I was one at ND), but bringing in bodies just to have bodies is just, well, strange.

Will they be there to intimidate opponents?  Is it just to get a new record-breaking number of spectators into Skunkbear Stadium?  Maybe in case there’s a riot, they’ll have a good chance of making it through the blockade?   Randomly weird, Rich.  Randomly weird. 

“More walk-ons!  I want 100,000 walk-ons so every person in the stadium cheer loud – else they’ll run!  I want a million of ‘em so we can have our own Million Walk-On March!  I want to have 4 million walk-ons so I can borrow a dollar from each to pay off my contractual obligation to WVU.  Let’s get us some walk-ons babeeeeeeyyyyyy!  Yeeeee-haw!!!”
