WVU v. Ole Miss

Feel free to comment away.  The Kentucky v. Lamar game is still on Fox Sports South so I have no clue what is going on.

Pounding At The Tad Pad

 
I don’t know about the rest of you but I am ready to put this disappointing football season behind me and focus on basketball.  It is tougher to get pumped for basketball games since there is less alcohol involved but lets change that and drink heavily for every game. 
Tonight, at 9 p.m., CBH faces his [...]

Is this Heaven? No, it’s a Public Restroom

While the rest of you prepare for the Backyard Brawl, I am getting excited for the Mountaineers basketball match up with Iowa in Vegas. 
The game is 3 years in the making, as WVU was supposed to play #3 seed Iowa in the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament in Detroit in 2006.  However, a circus [...]

Jack of All Trades, Masters of None

 
Sometimes we’re Texas Tech with 5 wideouts, sometimes we’re channeling 1970 in a single receiver, double tight end, I set, sometimes, we run fully loaded shotgun, sometimes we run half the team in motion.  But everytime, we suck. 
Offensive identity?  “Bread and butter” plays?  Who needs that when you can just randomly pick plays from nearly every [...]

Basketball Season Is Here???

Is it really time for the first basketball practice of the season? Normally, the start of the season is like a girlfriends period, it always comes at the worst time. This year, however, it comes at a time that will divert some of our attention from a struggling football team. Hopefully, when [...]

The Mock Turtle on Ebanks, Jones

Billy Hahn, aka “The Mock Turtle,” joined other WVU coaches on a trip last week through Charley West (the town, not your author, because that would be gross). During that trip, he had some interesting insights and comments on this most recently signed recruiting class.
The most interesting was this little tidbit (and I’m slightly [...]

Yeah…It’s THAT Good

“The 25314,” I ask myself, “you sexy, good looking zip code, I know Devin Ebanks gives West Virginia a solid recruiting class, but how good is it?” 
Well, recruiting rankings are out for the classes of 2008, and West Virginia – the place to which John Beilein swore you could not recruit – is ranked fourth in the [...]

Enough With The No-Name Recruits

Seriously, when is CBH going to start earning his money and recruit real players to Morgantown? Maybe it’s not possible, considering Beilein said it couldn’t be done.

Oh. Nevermind.
Devin Ebanks, a top 25 player (or top 10, depending on who you ask), has committed to the Mountaineers. Outside of [...]

Devin Ebanks Commits to Mountaineers

…or in other words, our recruiting class just went from top 25 to top 10.
If (and hopefully when) Joe Alexander returns for his senior season, CBH will have some tough decisions on coming up with a starting lineup.  That lineup, whatever he decides, will include Devin Ebanks.
We will have more on this come Monday morning…

I Like Swimming With Bowlegged Women

I’ve only been gone a couple weeks and Mountaineer athletics have seemingly gone down the pooper. What the hell are y’all doing up there? Don’t make me come back up there and straighten you guys out.
Huggins does a face plant at the Charlotte airport. Keith Dewitt pulls his commitment from the 2009 [...]

Hey Gorgeous, Leave The WVU Stuff To Us

As a fellow beautiful person, I find it hard to mock Doug Smock. I mean, look at the guy. Just perfection. The flowing locks, the kept mustache, designer glasses, and that playful grin. The man simply has it going on.
So when Doug talks, usually I listen, but mostly I just gaze [...]

Huggy Bear Gets Some Honey

As everyone know – if you don’t know, you’re a terrorist and you should quit logging onto the interwebs from your cave – Bobby Huggins signed a lifetime contract last Friday, keeping him at WVU until his 65th birthday, and paying him an average of 1.5 million dollars a year.
 

Huggins Lands 6′10″ Standout

The Class of 2009 officially took shape last night as Keith Dewitt, a 6′10″ power forward from Charis Prep (N.C.), verbally committed to the Mountaineers. Along with the recent offer by CBH, Dewiit had previously been offered by a Big East school (Cincinnati) as well as two Big 12 schools (Missouri and Nebraska).
While Dewitt’s [...]

2007-2008 Basketball Year in Review

Sorry, had to let you guys squirm just a little longer on our lame attempt at an April Fool’s joke. We would have gone for a bigger laugh, but we don’t have the wit necessary to pull it off.
………………………………..
At 26-10 (11-7), 5th place in the BE, Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tourny (and [...]

WVU and Sweet 16 — Like Lamb and Tuna Fish

– Oh, yes. They make terrific pair. They went together like lamb and tuna fish
– Lamb and tuna fish?
– Maybe you like spaghetti and meatball? You more comfortable with that analogy?
Actually, I like lamb and tuna fish, so we’re sticking with that.
WVU is back in the Sweet 16 for the third time in four years. [...]
