While this is a feel good story, its not all true. First of all Rich Rodriguez was born in Grant Town, WV (I'm pretty sure he never lived in Chicago). So it would be really odd if he'd never heard of WV. Secondly, Grant Town is 15 miles from Morgantown. His high school, North Marion, played Morgantown HS and University (Morgantown) HS in both football and basketball, so odds are pretty good that he had been to Morgantown before he became a student there. Also, Glenville State is an NAIA football team and they didn't win a national championship (although they did play once in the championship game). Some of the story may be true, just knowing those facts are wrong makes me question the rest of the story.
