One year ago, West Virginia put an utterly unwatchable product on the floor. Notoriously, I would spend Monday nights live tweeting The Bachelor instead of that week’s featured blow out road loss. I don’t think Bob Huggins would have blamed me. It was a joyless slog of a season with a team headlined by players who had inexplicably absorbed nothing from two or more years spent in the same room as Jevon Carter and Daxter Miles (and no, this does not include Sagaba Konate).
Yes, they ended the year on an upswing after the aforementioned players were, in the words of Fran Fraschilla, jettisoned into oblivion.
