COMMENTARY
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Those 28 points he scored? Weeks ago you wouldn’t have thought Jermaine Haley capable of such an outpouring. Heck, Haley wouldn’t have thought Haley possible of such.
For too long he fancied himself a distributor first and a distributor second and a distributor third, with shooting way down the to-do list. While selflessness with the basketball isn’t a bad trait, here was a kid who might’ve passed while playing Pop-a-Shot.
“When Jermaine first got here, I remember hearing Coach Harrison yelling at him like 20 times a practice to shoot the ball,” said teammate Jordan McCabe.
