COMMENTARY
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The latest series of staff moves within the West Virginia basketball program didn’t ring too newsy because head coach Bob Huggins has maintained an unusual run of continuity.
Along with racking up 819 wins, Huggins has piled up a mountain of loyalty points, keeping his support crew mostly intact during the past decade in Morgantown (and in some cases, beyond).
Assistant Erik Martin and newly promoted director of basketball operations Josh Eilert each followed Huggins from Kansas State. Associate head coach Larry Harrison has been with Huggins for all 10 seasons at WVU and eight previously at Cincinnati.
