I am now correct 94% of the time. WVallen is correct maybe 8% of the time. He even can't even pick his nose right. Brandon Knapper is a stud. I would even let my sister have Brandon Knapper's baby. That is a honor. I would not even let her have my baby.

McCabe sucks hes in over his head. Knapper is the best payer in the B12 and should have been starting day 1. Huggins has held him back. He should run this team and get the start. Him and Konate will take us to the title game. McCabe is in over his head. He's not fast and should be playing D2. If Konate was back and Culver was here all year we would we undefeated with Knapper. Dont even play McCabe. He's in over his head. He's not even a D1 player. Huggins hold players back. He's a bad coach. We need a new coach. -304

It's nice to see Knapper coming on. I was skeptical of him throughout most of the season, but he seems to be finding his groove at the right time for us. Not sure why you have it in so bad for McCabe? Knapper the best player in the Big 12? Wow! Let's just worry about him getting better the rest of the season.

WVU has no guards. Sad!
Hope Huggs doesn’t make the same mistake with David Early, Obinna Killen and Jalen Bridges. All 3 are absolute WV Mountain Men stars. We need all 3 or its retirement time. It’s a disgrace if we don’t make these 3 a top priority.

I always knew Harler was not D1. That’s on Huggs. Knapper is small that was my worry but I thought he would be better than this. He has regressed and I think his confidence has suffered badly. He may not last. McCabe isn’t the answer. Too small and slow.

The answer is Dobbs, Early at guard and Bridges at wing or 3 spot, Obinna at 4. Huggs needs to get all 4 WV stars. These guys are way better than any of the current guards we have.

Knapper is stepping up. I said he lost confidence and that’s on Huggs and staff. He has the ability it’s all mental and confidence. I said all season he is the guy and I’m right again. It’s starting to show. I was worried Huggs had ruined him and that he would just get frustrated and leave with other players. That won’t happen now cause Huggs is having to play Knapper now after screwing him over the first 3 months of season. Huggs needs to build him up. He can help us win. Start Knapper. He’s our best guard.

Are two McCabes on the team? The one I watch works hard and handles the ball
rather well. Of course, he makes freshman mistakes but overall I think he's coming
along well.

NovaMountaineer do you think hard work by McCabe and the strength and conditioning staff work can get him bigger, stronger, quicker, faster next year? I hope so. I’m a little concerned now. He looks so overmatched and he’s already turned 20 back on September 3. I know he’s a high character kid that works hard but do you think he’s too physically limited to get physically better. We don’t need to wait 3 years for him to contribute. He needs to be able to step up next year and help us and not be a liability. He’s a major defensive liability.

Knapper is the best guard we have. I think he finishes strong and gives us a lift. Knapper is going to be a really good player here. Jevon Carter predicts him to be a really good player. It’s all reps and confidence with Knapper.

All of our guards are inconsistent. With the exception of Bolden. Our front court is inconsistent. With exception of Culver.

We go on long scoring droughts because we turn it over so much. You don't have the ball you can't score.

These valuable minutes Knapper will get will pay off by Big 12 tournament if we get Konate back 100% 2-3 games before Big 12 tourney. Get Beetle 100% and get Konate 100% and go win it. It’s wide open. Texas Tech, Kansas, Iowa State, Baylor are beatable. Culver and Konate will be a handful together. Guards will be better with those 2 monsters down low. The twin towers.

I noticed on Saturday that McCabe didn't seem to dribble as much as in earlier games.
Too much dribbling is something Huggs has complained about in interviews. Just seems
that McCabe has responded with trying not to do it so much. Our shooting percentage
has gone through the floor. Looks like guys are passing up some open shots.

Bolden is the best guard we have. Knapper will now be #1 in turnovers since Esa is no longer on the team.

Knapper needs minutes.
The season is loss. Best thing WV can do is try to find something that works and make a run in the Big 12 tournament.

Knapper can play in the Big XII. The turnovers will decrease with more playing time.

Just as long as he plays Defense you can live with the turnovers.

Live with the turnovers? Are you serious Clark? That has to be the dumbest reply ever. Is it any wonder you smell like Pride.

The guy is a freshman.
He is going to get better with more time in the gym and in the game.
West Virginia needs Knapper next year. So let him swim or sink.
I have watched 9? West Virginia games this year and the last few I have noticed that Knapper is probably the best guard to have on the court.


He gives you a foundation with Culver for the next few years.
If anything good came out of this year it is the development of Knapper and Culver.

Knapper is nowhere close to being the best guard. Try something with knowledge pride jr.

Who else you want running the point.
Who else is going to match up against the schools that have 3 guards.
Not West.
#10? Haley I believe doesn't have the foot speed.

Who will your three guards be
Bolden
Knapper
West/Haley

They need Doomes to step up as well.
He has showed potential

With Bolden and Konate out and now ESA and Harris booted. WVU will play a lot of 4 guard sets.

McCabe - 1 (Knapper, Harler, Haley all will rotate the point with McCabe
Knapper, Doomes, Harler - 2 (probably the only at the 2)
West, Haley - 3 (Haley a 3 because it's all we have and he's a tall guard)
Don't really have a 4 now.
Culver, Gorden, Routt - 5

Only 9 scholarship players on the team now and 2 walk on players. All 9 will play

Knapper now leads the team in turnovers since Esa is gone. That's what we need is a TO guy.

McCabe has started at PG the last 4 to 5 games. He leads in Assist and Knapper is not close. Knapper is a 2 get use to it Texas punk.

You would expect that from a freshman.
McCabe doesn't have the potential.
He could get bigger and maybe use his strength but he is slower and weaker than the majority of guards in the Big 12.

His defense is horrible.

Sounds like a Marshall lineup.

Stats only make sense if you understand them...

Knapper is going to lead the team in turnovers because he is a freshman and because he is a guard.
He touches the ball every time he is on the court.

So if you look at touches compared to turnovers I am sure his percentage is much lower than other players

Townsvansandt knows a lot. Trust me. He’s one of the better more knowledgeable posters on here. He’s also noticed Knapper is the best guard WVU has and the most talented guard WVU has. Knapper hasn’t had a turnover the last 4 games. He’s already cutting down his turnovers. His defense is the best by far of the guards. Hands down Knapper will be back and better.

McCabe is done. He’s a border line D2 to low D1 guard. McCabe is West Liberty caliber. Move on. Next. Gone.

Knapper will seize the job easily the last 7 games and already has. He is only a freshmen and younger age wise than McCabe. Knapper had a knee surgery and blood clots all last year. He’s battled that and is going to end up good here.

It is overkill.
Truthfully on the verge of stalking.
A few posters have already said that you are as much of a problem as Pride.
Like I have said....your tactics are not working. Time to go at it another way.
