WATCH: WVU Team Reacts to New Coal Rush Uniform

The new alternate uniform appears to be a hit.

After many years of debate and speculation, West Virginia finally did it. They now have an all-black uniform for football. The new look was revealed last night on social media, but prior to the public reveal, they allowed the players, coaches, and support staff to get the first look.

The uniform is to pay homage to all of the hard working coal miners in the state who have sacrificed so much in their lives. As to when these uniforms will be worn remains to be determined. The rumor floating around is that they will debut them in the season opener against Penn State, but that has not been finalized at this point in time.
