See see!!! I give Wanny credit for following through on his evaluation of why his team gave up 800 yards of rushing to WVU.

One Friday, they ran up the hill from Second Avenue across the Swinburne Bridge into Oakland. Another time, they ran the steps inside the Cathedral of Learning -- all 36 floors -- twice. One time, they showed up at 5:30 a.m., only to be told to run down the walking path next to the Monongahela River, even though it was dark and cold. Their instructions were to keep running until they ran into the other coaches -- who were a few miles down the path.
The only other rule is that coaches can't ride the buses because Wannstedt said: "I want the players to be able to grumble about it and air their grievances, and they won't do that with coaches around. Open communication is a good thing, it really helps bring players closer together."
Last Friday, about 85 players ran up the steps -- one player counted somewhere in the neighborhood of 180 -- from the bottom of University Avenue to the top despite a chilling wind. They did that 10 times, while injured players who can't run, did their crunches and sit-ups and stretches on the sidewalk at the bottom.
