Thanks for clarifying Vette. You lost me on that one. Huggins post game when asked if this win in a tournament like atmosphere meant a little more... shrugged his shoulders and says, "we go play Kansas in the Phog then two games later we play Texas Tech, last year's national runner up".VetteMan wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2019 10:58 pmI was completely wrong in the above post that I posted earlier. I had Huggins on my mind, and instead of saying when he was the head coach at Cincinnati, ( Not WVU ) is when the "Damon Flint" incident occurred. For quite a few years I think that there were hard feelings between OSU and Cincinnati, not WVU.VetteMan wrote: ↑Sun Dec 29, 2019 8:45 pm This outcome does not surprise me at all. You also can not have 22-24 turnovers, and a large amount of them be unforced turnovers. Wesson may be 6'10", but in no way shape or form is he a physical player at all. I know that Huggins and WVU like to play physical, and there front court are big enough to do that. Things are only going to start to get tougher from here on out, playing on the road in the Big 10 is never a cakewalk. I also think that this game means more to WVU than it does to the Buckeyes. For quite a few years the Buckeyes and WVU would not play each other, especially in basketball. There was bad blood between the two schools for quite a few years over the "Damon Flint" recruiting situation. Even though we play them in football and basketball now, I still think there is no love lost between the 2 schools.
Probably meant more to Culver and McBride being Ohio guys. Huggs been around long enough to know you never get to high after a win or to low after a loss.
