No way this starts on time
Espn News likely for the first 3-4 minutes I'm guessing
They came ou with their so clled projected top 16 seeds this was the 1st prediction and they have KU as a 1 seed my friends.- Now I know I'm in the minority probably right now and that's ok but I just don't think we shoud be a # 1 seed right now. I can see a 2 but just not a 1 seed. Hard to justify when Kentucky is a 2 seed and they just dominated us in every phase when they played us
We good.
JCL available, Remy not.
Let's go #Jayhawks ❤💙
🙋♀️
We starting late?

Where's the score?
Somehow that went

Good start. Keep making shots
siiiiighg 44
Anyone else’s sound weirdly quiet?
Why are the booing CB? Did he do something?
Sloppy there cb
out with covid.. but barely have energy to watch the jayhawks. Don't let me down!

Just playing off the narrative that he's a player to hate. Espn been running that campaign since the athletic article came out

@BeddieKU23 It pisses me off...
They'll do the DUI for JWill. Trash
What was Juan doing on that last play? Should have been across half court for CB to throw back to.
@FarmerJayhawk entire production so far has been sort of a shit show
There were more Tech fans in Austin than UT fans. Loved seeing them lose and swept by Tech

West Virginia went almost 5 minutes without a foul. Only at home

I guess Bill knows he can screw around tonight. Mitch, Joe and JCL early.
Need JCL to get hot
Lucky we caught WVU on the road so late in the season, after they knew how bad they were. Their guys don’t look like they’re in it
well where is our buddy that feels joe ought to be getting more playing time ? - - -hmm 1st time he touchs launch's a 3- - AIR BALL and looks at his hand -dam thing hate these hands

You know what's really remarkable is how Boynton has kept OSU players fully engaged. They were scrapping against KSuck today.
let's beat them by 40...
WV 4 --17 shooting
@Jethro said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:
@BShark I heard the bubble pop for Silo today...
Finger lickin good.
Welcome to the SEC, OU and UT. You both got run today...
Glad Huggy shaved
That’s your game Yes
@RockChalkinTexas He looked like the fat version of the Fugitive with the beard...
Wow Joe you got wheels
Weird
Turnovers the only reason this is close
Jalen is a top 10 rebounder in the self era

6 KU TOs to 1 for WVU...
At least we aren't hesitant about driving it
@BeddieKU23 said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:

It's an elite trait for him on a team that doesn't have a lot of guys with elite traits.
This game has a physicality that's just getting out of hand
the black hat? ESPN is really pimping the Little Man Fran narrative...
Foul much
Just stop feeding it to Dave in the post. Please....
Cb going for a record in turnovers tonight
This is really not fun basketball so far. Nobody feels engaged except maybe Och
Juan should have taken that wide-open 3
Going to go out on a limb here but I think this team is better with Och on the floor.
We have an 18-8 RB advantage, yet WVU has 50% more shot attempts....
@tundrahok said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:
Juan should have taken that wide-open 3
No. He punished the d in a different way but Dave needs to finish.
when is the last time we have had a team that is this loose taking care of the ball ? - -i I can't remember this poor of a ball handling club , really gonna cost us down the line. - -Look at the possessions we lose for this. We tighten that up and this would be more likely then not about a 15 point lead right now. these types of things just let's teams a poorly offensively as Wv think they got a shot
If we can get over 60, we'll win. WVU's offense is "offensive".
@Jethro said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:
Welcome to the SEC, OU and UT. You both got run today...
I think K/State and OU just took themselves out of the NCAA's today
Nice
@benshawks08 Dave does need to finish, but Juan needs people to respect him. He has a good percentage from 3. If he makes people defend him, more opportunities will be there for others too.
OCH
Self out of a timeout. Pure uncut happiness
Yikes

You don’t have to shoot the ball to punish a d for sagging off. His pump fake and drove should have been a dunk.
Oh boy jalen
Stop it guys
Lol. Och will never make 90% from the line. Silly announcer!
Jalen ain't Kobe, is he?
Guy in the photog row was open
CB has 4 TO
4 turnovers for Braun. Dude
Did the put helium in the ball today or something? Why can’t anyone shoot?
What was CB thinking? If he was? That Dave could catch that and do anything with it???????
That’s how Dave’s ORB% is so high
@FarmerJayhawk I'll take it...
@FarmerJayhawk I seriously would love to know how of his own misses he’s rebounded 😂
Cb making up for his TOs
Wow cb
BRAUN
Follow your shot😇
Who are these guys?
Wow. Wvu is just bad.
Almost as bad as the team on the call.
Crowd is listless
That's what I'm asking?
WVU is 7-31 and we have a 25-10 RB advantage. We should be up 20+....
Shit!
Ouch
Wow that's a hard play
geez...sloppy joe city...
Pass the ball

Ball hog
@BeddieKU23 We were also bound to starting missing after the 8-12 start. WVU is reaaaally bad.
the team knows they could beat them by 40...they're playing around...
Holy crap - - -AGAIN just unforced turnovers is this basic Basketball 101 - -come on man act like you've handled a Basketball before. The way we are killing these guys on the boards - - they struggle to score but look at how many more possessions they are getting. - -come on dam man
No way he was getting that shot off

So I mean, Bill is putting guys into a position to where they have to do this when Harris is the only guard. Of course...Remy being available would help...
@Jethro said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:

I'd much rather see him than 44. Weird rotations tonight after I was pretty happy with them last game..
Good bucket by mitch there
44 2nd foul. He's trying to help Bill out.
🤬
KJ
Come on harris
Lol didn't play the whole half then gets a 2
We simply cannot finish at the end of a half....
another end of the half meltdown...
17-1 when leading at the half
Just awful ending there
dO WE HAVE anybody THAT KNOWS WHAT A BASKETBALL LOOKS LIKE AND ANYONE THAT KNOWS YOU ARE SUPOSE TO not TURN IT OVER AT THE DROP OF A HAT. - -i MEAN THAT'S JUST UGLY DISPLAY OF BALL HANDLING - jESUS NOW WE GOT WV THINKING THEY CAN PLAY WITH US - -SERIOUSLY MY GOD 10 TURNOVES COMPARED TO 2 IN THE 1ST HALF. -TEN DAM TURNOVERS AND maybe two forced. other then that just wreckless handling.
i'M telling ya we handle the ball like that against a team that pressures us in the NCAA's we are ONE AND DONE no questions
@Jethro said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:
another end of the half meltdown...
Buddy it's only because we have no clue how to handle the Ball. - - WV has 8 more shot attempts because of our turnovers - we out rebounded WV 28-14 but our dam TO'S has given them 8 more attempts
@jayballer67 We have one ball handler in the game. Sit down one of our wings, and let Joe play with Harris and the turnovers will go down.

ya me and you both bud - - Zach has extended time last game and not a second tonight. - -Come on now I'm not one to usually question Coach but umm not one second ?
We have 8 offensive rebounds and they have 8 defensive rebounds. When we miss a shot, we get a second chance half the time. That's cool.
@Jethro said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:

Not so sure - - Juan just dribbles the ball off his foot late in the half - - Joe 1st time he touch's the ball jaks up a Air ball 3 -I think they need to devote a couple of entire practices on ball handling skills basic 101
WVU shoots 29% and down just 6.
Braun has 8 rebounds at the half - McCormick 6 Wilson I think 6 -. I'll bet you this - -I bet we don't have nesr the turnovers the 2nd half. - Mark it down I can hear Coach now inviting the players over for dinner tomorrow and say while were here we gonna practice on dribbling the dam basketball lmao -- just kidding guys
If we don't get these ball handling problems cleaned up -we gonna screw around and be in one of these one point last second shot nail biters
Need to come out swinging
Welp
Jesus
Bring in Clemence NOW
Omg
well we are cursed
Ww needed that Och
Unfreaking real
Perhaps och should get a shot more
Good D, Dave
Dunk that dude
Jesus Dave come on
It's not just that we've turned it over too many times. It's also that we don't force TOs. WVU isn't a great ball handling team, but they only have 2 TOs. 2!!!!!
Breathe
Flop cityy
We are an ugly team.
Fool the crap out of big Dave half?
Nice feed!
Wow pass
We are a beautiful team
How can you be a selfish defender? I don't understand that comment. On defense you just want to stop the other team from scoring.
whewwwww coookin
Nice help D!
West Virginia is really bda , really struggle to score

CB and JWill usually make up for his bad rebounding on the other end which helps.
Sherman lives for the degree of difficulty shot making
Oops.
5 TO's Braun
Self was talking about they need to not only help the helper, but one more step help the helpers helper! That was on Hawk talk
Jeez call fouls assholes
Christan now has 5 turnovers for the game - -BUT also has 9 rebounds

WV shooting under 30 %. - -like they just said were up 10 but if we wasn't turning the ball over so dam much we would be up 20
Huggy going with the bloodhound defense
Get some fresh blood in the lineup.
Redicilous turnovers
Shooting foul lol
Crap
Pathetic
Geez I've got nothing
Lol we just don’t want to be here tonight
getting scary.
12 point lead gone. Unexplainable
yikes
Nice for their fans. We'll give them the timeout to be happy. Now time to get serious, quit dicking around, and put them away.
@BeddieKU23 said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:

Unfortunately, it is explainable - we've seen this movie before....
Maybe Juan will foul out
Wow go to hell ref with that
Woooow
@RockChalkinTexas it's his fault?
Bad call not even close
That’s better
We went over 4 minutes without scoring....
Absolutely lazy defense
These announcers are insane
Getting to the line doesn't help us usually
9 points in the first 3 minutes - 2 in the next 5+ minutes....
Whatever ref
They are letting the pressure get to them inside of dictating the offense
WVU still has only 3 TOs in 28 minutes....
Besides Harris our sharing the ball tonight has been the most disappointing aspect of this game Besides the turnovers. Harris has 4 dimes and the only other guard with one is Yesufu
Does Bill know he has other options?
We don't have an offensive rebound this half...
@BShark said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:

WTF Dave dribble
Omg
10 more WVU shot attempts. Still no ORBs this half....
WooHoo
Davey Buckets
Big play davith
BIG DAVE
Gives Dave 14 and like 8 rebounds
One foot Dave has been pretty damn good tonight, missed dunk aside.
@RockChalkinTexas said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:
WTF Dave dribble
like they was saying that's on the KU guards you don't run off and leave your big man to try and handle the ball. they got to come get it
Dedrick
WVU shooting 31% and we have a 17 RB advantage. Should be up 20...but for stupid TOs...
BS
Billy is HOT
Sad that future KU assistant coach JCL hasn't got any run this half
Refs just stole two points
BALONEY
the refs are stealing points from us....
Wait what?
Stay focused and finish this!
Big Dave gets mauled the whole game, and then they call a foul on him for barely touching a guy...
Fuck these refs
Jeez
Box out
wtf
Jump
Omg
Jalen got knocked down for the rebound, and they call him for a foul.
West Virginia is a team that always seems to have the same archetypical kids on the team. They feel ageless and mediocre every year.
We just broke 60- we win!
Rebound yeesh
I guess we don't like to rebound
@approxinfinity they’re all hackers
Get position
No Zach tonight is disappointing to say the least
Put Dave back in there.

Can't let him catch it
We had 9-2 ORB advantage in 1st half. 12-1 reversal in 2nd half...
That was stupid deep lol
Put him in the pro shooting contest
We just don't want to get anything easy dowe

The KU weakness has been exposed. And Texas was the team to do it. Just push shove and hack the shit out of us and we wilt a bit.
Big Dave is back, baby....
Nice work Dave
@BeddieKU23 do you have a repeat app😂
I'll take this as the national championship
Wut
@Crimsonorblue22 As long as we win, you bet!
Refs suck badly
no way
Good dub let’s go home
Jwill
Wanted the double double
We have 3 with double figures in RBs...
i said we'd win by 12....come on, baby shoes!
Didn’t feel like it, but a double digit win in Morgantown is a good win
Missed a lot of this one due to some family fun. Looks like a good win to me! Rock chalk!
Jalen gets a double double with one made FG...
We turned Morganfrown upside down.
Dave with 19 points & 11 rebounds - -Dave coming on at the right time
Jethrodamus: first team that gets to 60 wins...
This is the Dave we all know and love
@BeddieKU23 are you 12?

Weird game. WVU had 16 more FGA. We had 16 more RBs. Key was shooting 82% from FT line.
@DanR said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:
Missed a lot of this one due to some family fun. Looks like a good win to me! Rock chalk!
Glad you finally made it. Your optimism is always appreciated!
I'm old enough to remember a time when we would've been excited to beat the Hillbillies by double digits...
even though it looked like we were getting pounded on the boards late we still ended up with an 18 rebound advantage & we held Wv to 28 % shooting
@tundrahok said in Huggy Bear Game Thread:

the only thing I remotely heard was they just didn't feel like in this type of enviroment and game condition just didn't feel comfortable with the Freshman playing- -I don't think he could of done any worse then Mitch tonight Mitch was Bad
@jayballer67 We win by double digits, and we play pretty bad. Just wait until we start playing good.

yes sir looking forwrd to tha. - -we got K/ state -- TCu & Texas left at home and TCU & Baylor on the road - - 15-3 is looking like a real possibility
@tundrahok you see post game? He said he went w/experience.
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes, just saw that, thanks! Makes sense. Big 12 road games are tough for freshmen. Firey crowds, especially in Morgantown,with lots of animosity can rattle young kids. We just couldn't pull away enough to provide comfort.
No Zac but glad he isn't hurt.
This was a typical Huggy saying be aggressive on D and hope the refs swallow their whistles. Tweet tweet swish swish Coach Huggins.
The "theory" that is floating around about Zach is that Matt Tait just wrote an article about him. Article written- then he sits. And the same thing happened to Yes earlier in the season. Article written about Yes, then the next game he sits. I don't know if it's true- I'm just the messenger. That doesn't seem to occur with the starters- only the bench guys.
In the second half did we actually run any plays other than go to Dave or I give up until Och goes one on one?

Setting up the transfer portal queue.
Bill was "very pleased", the team "rebounded like men".
Jalen 23-29 from the line in the last month. 79%. You can tell he is really focusing there
Dave with his 7th double double of the season.
Escape From Morgantown!
We tried like hell to give this one away, but very glad the team sucked it up and left with plenty of leftover fried fish.
Boy this team sure makes it more challenging that it should be at times.
