Good for WVU. As a UConn fan, I definitely would like to see these guys continue their success. Michigan University did this school wrong, and they deserve everything they are getting. What did the Wolverine's (in a lesser than Big East conference) do this year?
I wonder what Cincinnati fans are thinking this weekend. Everyone was so eager to dump Huggins after the DUI and now its Xavier (from Cincinnati) playing W.V.U. in the tourney while Cincinnati's basketball program is settling into its pre-Huggins second-tier role.
Thanks for the props UConn fan. It takes this type of attitude to win championships. You have to dictate the game and have the attitude that we are the best team on the floor. I'm not sure if WVU has the arsenal to make it all the way this year but wow what a transformation this year.
I don't know if I can blame Cinci for cutting Huggins loose when they did. The President of the University wanted to change the program's image and the DUI happened shortly after he made his plans known. I think he had to cut him loose to prove he was serious.
That being said. Huggins is a good coach and deserved another chance. I hope he succeeds at WVU and proves that he can run a tight ship without any off court issues.
What are Cincinnati fans thinking? I can't speak for everyone but I think most are saying "Go Mountaineers"! We also think new Coach Cronin is doing a great job so look for us back in the big dance within 2 years, maybe 1!
