It's an information-packed and entertaining visit with the man in charge of WVU baseball. 

The story of WVU football player Eddie Vesterinen reads like a movie script.  The teenager, who saw an online video showing massive collisions in American football, began a quest to learn about the game. 

It began a life-changing journey for the native of Helsinki, Finland who is ready to begin his final season on the Mountaineer defensive line. Along the way, the affable and multi-talented Vesterinen has defined what good can come from the opportunity that college athletics offers. 

In this episode, the "Guys" learn about Ed's fantastic story, which includes a live musical performance.

When it comes to longevity and consistency, he's West Virginia University's Cal Ripken.  

Randy Meador's touch has been part of West Virginia University basketball since 1984.  It's the longest tenure by anyone involved in program history.  His 41 seasons as head athletic trainer have been defined by professionalism and dedication to his craft. And, oh yeah, he NEVER missed a single game.  Not one!

The Ohio native will never be officially credited with any coaching victories, but his behind-the-scenes work led to countless wins for the Mountaineers.

That's not hyperbole, it's the truth.  Actually, it was more than one kick to Florio's backside, but regardless, the impact is still being felt today.  

In this episode, the "Guys" spend an entertaining visit with the founder of Pro Football Talk. While his passion remains the NFL, his non-football writing continues to gain popularity.  

It's a enlightening and fun conversation with one of the most interesting guys to appear on the podcast.

Wren Baker is the 13th Athletic Director in West Virginia University history. It’s fair to say none of his predecessors have navigated the changes and challenges that he’s encountered.
 
Forget about the “normal” requirements of the job, Baker is also leading WVU in the transition from college amateurism to a pay-for-play model.  It’s uncharted territory for everyone involved and, for Baker, just another challenge that’s being handled with both confidence and optimism.
 
In this episode, the “Guys” dig deep into the new world of college athletics and learn Baker’s plan for how WVU athletics will compete in a very new world.

Little has been heard from Zac Alley since his arrival in Morgantown.  West Virginia University's defensive coordinator is a rising star in coaching circles. 

You could say Alley's decision to join the WVU program is Rich Rodriguez's biggest recruiting coup yet. Alley's departure from Oklahoma gives Rodriguez the aggressive attacking nature that pairs well with his fast-paced offensive attack.

The West Virginia kid from the small high school became one of the most recognizable names in WVU history with one single kick of a football. 

In this episode, Bill and the "Guys" celebrate the 50th anniversary of that play and the dividends it continues to pay. 

Treysen Eaglestaff has a story. 

The self-described chubby high school kid has blossomed into one of college basketball's top scorers. 

That's why his entrance into the transfer portal produced numerous scholarship offers, which included Kentucky, Kansas, Gonzaga and South Carolina.  

Instead of 'blue bloods", Eaglestaff chose the Gold and Blue of West Virginia and will be part of Coach Ross Hodge's debut season.

In this episode, Eaglestaff shares his obsession with improving and an improbable journey from North Dakota to Morgantown.
