Pretty neat story about West Virginia, WVU and the Raleigh County mining tragedy. It goes above and actually beyond the way the Mountaineers will remember those who passed away.

Shortly after Stewart’s players signed the jersey, the coach announced that the Mountaineers would wear a helmet in the Blue-Gold spring game with a decal to honor the 29 miners who died in the Upper Big Branch disaster.

The decal will be a white circle with a black No. 29 in the middle of the circle. It will be worn in the spring game and throughout the season.

“We will wear that proudly in honor of those men,” Stewart said after his practice. “We dedicate the season to the miners.”
