Let’s Give This “Basketball School” Thing A Try

Football?  What’s football?
Comment away.

War Damn Mountaineers!

Late in the second quarter, just before Pat White threw the touchdown pass to Alric Arnett, the WVU offense changed.  Down 17-3, this team (and the staff) had a choice: score points or pack up the season.  From my seat, you could almost see the exact moment it happened.  A four play, 78 yard touchdown [...]

Holy Fucking Shit That Felt Good

One game, makes you sit up and take notice. Two games, gives you a big’ol chubber. The third game, we perform as we did last night and we are back.
While last night’s performance was huge for this team, we need to temper our excitement and remember it was only one game. We looked pretty damn [...]

Villanova Highlights: “Put On”

[Thanks, as always, to Dougity Dog]

Stargate 2008

The title of this article does not reflect my love for science fiction movies that are eventually made into TV shows. No, no, and no. Rather, it is in reference to our recruiting haul so far this season. While we have not been scoring 5 star guys like Heastie and Boyd, the [...]

Next Time, Take Some Pride In Your Work

In what might just perfectly sum up the West Virginia University experience, I give you this beer pong table.

Basically, if you encapsulated all of my hopes and dreams into a piece of particle board and 2 by 4s, you would end up with this beer pong table.
In other news, this table [...]

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. [...]

It’s A Great Night To Be A Mountaineer!

There are too many words to properly express what happened tonight. This is one of the greatest nights in Mountaineer history. It would be silly of us to make any judgments on our coaching situation tonight. Let’s just enjoy the day, night, game, etc. Truly amazing.
Trust me — tomorrow — we’ll [...]

We Play A Mean Game Of Roundball

Stiles, our resident basketball expert, will check in periodically with his thoughts on the season. Luckily for you, this is one of those times. 
I can’t take it anymore. Somebody wake me up when the new coach is hired. I’m too preoccupied with this upcoming test for the basketball team against Oklahoma.
With Charley and 5th Year playing [...]

Holy Shit We’re Good — Basketball Edition

Stiles, our resident basketball expert, will check in periodically with his thoughts on the season. Lucky you, this is one of those times.
Yeah, so, it might be time to revisit my preseason prediction (insert link) for the basketball team. Why? Because the last two games have shown me that WVU is for real [...]

Terrelle Pryor Should Get Used To This

Didn’t think the hype machine would start a week early? Thought the mainstream media might wait a week until the BCS National Championship game was officially set? Well, you were wrong. The hype, or as I like to call it, “The 2007-2008 West Virginia Kicks Ass In Recruiting For The Next Decade [...]

“Chill Son” Returns To Mountaineer Field

From time to time, we at WBGV bitch and moan about the current state of WVU’s fan-base. Not because we don’t have a great one, because we do. We just expect perfection from our fans, and attaining perfection is a little easier said than done. It is nice, then, to be reminded [...]

Dare I Say It?

You’ll get the full rundown later this morning, but for now, I have just one thing on my mind…
