On Wednesday, Stewart stressed character when he announced the signing of two dozen recruits. He pointed to former Georgia Tech coach Bobby Ross, a friend and mentor who instilled in him the desire to find players of solid character.

Stewart talked Wednesday about expectations off the field, citing West Virginia's 48-28 victory over Oklahoma in the Jan. 2 Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Ariz. Stewart was then the interim coach after Rich Rodriguez had left for Michigan.

"We were in the desert, had casinos over here, dance halls over there. Pockets full of money," Stewart said. "We had 125 young men. Eight days, seven nights -- one curfew bust.

"Coaching did not win the Fiesta Bowl. Chemistry, teammates, character, doing things the right way, being accountable, being responsible. That's the reason we won the Fiesta Bowl."

Stewart appears to be taking a tougher stance on disciplinary matters than his predecessor.

its nice to be respected!
 
Very nice to hear of his reference to BR. :biggthumpup:
 
For those on the Bobby Ross team, I believe I heard that the statement below was the first thing Ross said to the Team, "hats off, feet on the floor". The Seniors did not like that tone from BR.

Is this a true statement about Ross?

No. It was Bill Lewis. Yes, it didn't sit well with the team:
