Osu-wvu

[JBaker]

Marcus Smart just picked up his third foul 2 minutes into the game.
If WVU can take advantage they might have a shot at the upset.

WVU versus OSU without Smart is a matchup of two bad teams.

I just tuned in so didn't see the calls. But Smart will learn that you don't always get away with the aggressive style he plays when you're on the road in the Big 12. Putting Marcus on the bench with his third this early in the game, could prove to be huge for WVU.

WVU might be the worst offensive team in basketball history, so it's not mattering so far.

We should press WVU for 40 minutes when they come to Norman.
They have 0 ball handlers, and 0 shooters that could hurt us if they break the press.

Agreed. This has to be an exercise in frustration for Huggins. Nothing he does seems to matter much. This has to be one of the worst teams he has ever coached. WVU have no ball handlers and no go-to players who are capable of producing points when their offense stalls out.

If OU keeps the pressure on them in Norman and forces Kilichi to go to his right, we should win that game fairly easily.

With or Without Smart....they are way better than WV

With the way he's dressing for games, Huggins looks like a coach who's thrown in the towel all the way around.

In the jumpsuit? He has worn that for years.

I thought it'd just been the last year or two.

Either way, it's low-rent.

This made me LOL.

He seems to have given up on diet and exercise.

It amazes me how many coaches give up on diet and exercise. Almost all of them were gifted athletes. They are surrounded be people working out. They should want to set an example for their players but a lot of them seem to never work out.

I don't coach, but I imagine a typical day for them is at least 12-14 hours long, eating on the go, and eating at random times throughout the day/night. Not to mention the incredible amounts of stress they endure. Probably easier to sacrifice 30 minutes of treadmill work if it means that's 30 minutes more of film time on next week's game. I'd like to think I would be able to still work out, but it doesn't surprise me that so many give up the diet and exercise.

I almost wrote this earlier. All of that, coupled with the fact that I'm sure they try to get home to their families when they can, and there probably isn't a log of free time for eating right, and working out regularly.

I don't much care about Huggins' weight, but he can certainly afford some decent clothes that fit. That track suit is an embarrassment; he's a representative of the university and if I were the AD at WVU (which is not likely to happen any time soon, for so many reasons), I'd have a talk with him about it.

Low. Rent.
