West Virginia Mountaineers vs Texas Tech Basketball Preview & How To Watch: Struggling Mountaineers Head To Lubbock To Face Red Raiders

What a difference a week makes. Going into last Saturday, the West Virginia Mountaineers were riding high after knocking off the #1 Kansas Jayhawks and flirting with an AP #1 ranking. After two straight losses, Huggs was searching for answers to a common question in collegiate athletics: how to properly motivate young men to approach every game with maximum effort and focus. He alludes to this in the United Playbook video along with some quality Dr. Phil analysis, but let's hope it stays a joking matter rather than a systemic issue. These things can get out of hand quick, but it doesn't seem to be a mental block or slump, but more of attitude thing as Huggins himself suggests.
