Great effort but that loss was on Prohm straightaway. Huggins just owned him the last 5 minutes by overplaying Bolton and pressing the inbounds pass after the 2 FTs that put WV up one. Prohm never has an answer. My 14 yr old son busted up laughing when the announcer said Prohm is great at inbounds plays coming out of a time out. He’s awful. With 20 seconds left we should have been playing for the winning shot, instead we lose by 5. Steve Prohm has no business coaching at this level.

Guessing you've been talking to Pollard about your availability, then?

They played with more effort, but turnovers, rebounding and bad shot selection killed us, calling a timeout between free throws when inbounding is your Achilles heel not saving it against a pressing team WTF.

Wasn’t that a Nader thing?

Not sure about Nader, but Matt did it quite a bit not so much in a corner but usually about half to three qtrs of way between the baseline and half court. But he made the ones when he didn't step out so it didn't bother fans as much. When you still win a lot is forgiven.

Solid effort tonight. If they bring that intensity and D every night they'll beat some teams. Need to rebound better and make sure Harris is heading to the locker room in the last 3 minutes of close games.

Well, part of that is Huggy working the refs all night. I wish Steve had that in him. Self does it too, and it works for them.


I was sitting right behind the kst8 bench in Hilton when frank Martin was coach 1 game. Kst8 had 9 fouls and we had 2. Every and I mean every time the ref ran by frank yelled 9 to 2. 9 to 2. Needless to say the next 5 fouls were on us.

I think our guys came out with good intensity on both sides of the ball. Kudos to them (seriously).

I also think WVU played down to the competition. Add in biased refs and you get tonights basketball game.
