    SATURDAY PODCAST: Ranking the Big 12 football coaches

    I think you've bought into the hype created by the talking heads. There were plenty of people saying this, including some from WV, but the university never said anything close to possibly firing Holgorsen. I'm also unaware of anyone citing a source from within the university for an article...

    SATURDAY PODCAST: Ranking the Big 12 football coaches

    For some reason I can not get the player to launch. Are the criteria too long for someone to post? Please.

    Ok, now I think you've gone full blown conspiracy theorist. It's no longer that Huggs has told the team play aggressively, they won't call them all because of human nature. Now you're saying that he has actually instilled a bias into the refs that no other team is allowed to play aggressively...

    The plural of that word is pussies not pussys. Of course if the only one you've ever seen is at birth you probably never needed to learn that.

    I can assure you, I haven't missed any part of WVU's last 5 games, nor the ones that preceded those. The TCU foul at the end was just a bad whistle, period. What would you have Huggs do, walk out on the court and ask the ref to call a do-over? Are we now guilty of fouls not called and fouls...

    As I said many posts ago...I'm not representing anything, I'm just a dude on a couch. And for the record, with the exception of my exchange with one poster who initiated a bad exchange, I haven't said anything derogatory about your team, your coach or your fan base. A lot of you are completely...

    You're making a distinction that has nothing to do with what I said. Where did I say a foul wasn't "illegal"? I was responding to someone who said it was "cheating". Let me make sure I understand though, intentionally fouling every single time the opponent brings the ball in late in a game is...

    You're trying your best to deflect from the fact you called me out for something I didn't do and aren't man enough to admit it, so you slither away.

    I'm not sure what I think about that. I'm going to have to go look for some data.

    Oh, I'm not whining. You did exactly what I thought you'd do and that says it all.

    I wonder why they give you "5" fouls...an accident? If a foul is "cheating" I presume you're against fouling somebody about to make an easy layup...or to extend a game when you're down hoping the other team will miss their free throws. Are those cheating and dishonoring the game?

    I must have missed the part where the guy inbounding the ball fouled somebody...I know, I get it, it's just funny when someone makes an impossible statement and says they're not exaggerating. I do get your point though, I disagree with it, but I understand why you feel that way. As for...

    Well, if we can keep it civil, let's start with the fact that you all lost the offensive rebounding 18-8 and total rebounding 48-29...how is that related to loose foul calling? I didn't read many, if any, complaints in the 27 pages of the thread complaining about rebounding fouls. No offense...

    I'll tell you what, if you can find a single post of mine in the 27 pages I just read through that were filled with vitriol where I was gloating I'll apologize. I'll tell you another thing, don't bother looking because you won't find one. Despite numerous instances where I wanted to fire back...

    Big 12 COY

    In my original post I said, "That doesn't jump out as superior coaching." and "Self has won 13 conference championships in a row, definitely impressive." Neither of those is saying he did a bad job and I don't think I made any negative comments about his performance. I just said that I don't...

    Big 12 COY

    As I said in my first post I wasn't making a pick just pointing out that, to those whom much is given, much is expected. I think I understand your pick. In post #25 you gave him credit for recruiting the players he has. In post #32 you're giving him credit because of the job he did with...

    Big 12 COY

    Are you seriously telling me how hard it is to coach 5* kids? If they're such a burden why doesn't he recruit 3*s and 4*s? And roster management? I'm sure he frets every time he looks down his bench and says which 5* do I want to put in.for the 5* I'm sitting. KU doesn't have the abundance...

    Big 12 COY

    Since 2013 his recruiting class ranking averages 6th. His end of year ranking is 5.25. That doesn't jump out as superior coaching. For reference, you all have only had 2 top 40 recruiting classes. 2016 was 39th, and 2013 was 30th. Yet you've finished 17th, 12th, 17th over that same period...

    Huge win for WVU

    Because deep down his players know this is the real Bob Huggins. I always find it a little uncomfortable to watch because I'm not wired this way but you can't deny he cares deeply about his players. More proof is when he got canned at Cincy one of his players who went on to the NBA told Cincy...
