Basketball Coaching Carousel

My guess is they do the interim coach to try and hold the roster intact. Given most of those kids were lured with Nil money as long as that stays in place it's likely the best result. They could soon be looking for a football coach as well so the new AD needs to get the hire right.

Didn't they just fire their associate head coach just recently? That would just about diminish any possible internal candidates. Going to be interesting to see how this plays out.

The big NIL donators want a return on their money.This is just one more problem which the NIL has brought.

Larry Harrison and that whole thing was extremely weird and I don’t think that was Bob’s call. Details never came out as far as I know.

No I know it wasn't Huggs decision to let Harrison go but with both he and Erik M. gone there is no one in line to
to replace Bob. And that NIL money just might remain intact if these recruits decide to decommit. But true, they are going to need a name to keep things from unraveling.

NIL donors equals pay-4-play. I am so disgusted by the turn of events in WVU, which is a microcosm of all college sports. I'm 100% for the kids `being able to make pocket money to eat, go on a date, or go home to visit family/friends, but it has gotten out of hand.

Penny, Penny, Penny. Hands caught in the recruiting cookie jar again.

Penny, Penny, Penny. Hands caught in the recruiting cookie jar again.

3 games may seem minor but the case is being documented.

Yes I know, just like all the other cases he ( & Memphis ) has documented.

3 games may seem minor but the case is being documented.

And they will just be the early cupcake teams that he will miss.

I think Penny is working to get his own day memorialized. Every June gets him an automatic suspension for violations committed. See NCAA infractions ( not UC) #16
