Horton, Knapper, Harler, Routt, and a Pep band trombone player may start.

Is the trombone player from Fairmont?!

 

[skygusty_rivals]

Yep. It is the Pride All-Star lineup.

Is there a mercy rule in college basketball?

 

[deedoubleyou]

We are playing harder and more as a team so far tonight. That doesnt mean we can win. We lack experience and dont have anyone with enough raw talent to overcome it except Culver.

 

[skygusty_rivals]

West is capable of a good game, K St. Is banged up. It could happen.

Watched the 1st half. Some guys ain't quitting and playing hard. Saw some good looks and effort in the end of the season after some challenges. That's a good thing.

Some have questioned why Konate has traveled......maybe to keep him "attached" to the team by design? He won't be NBA after this season. Maybe we have Konate, the new 5*, Culver, and rejuvenated sophomores next year. This season may be hard, but we'll be ok next year.

I assume Sags is coming back. No reason that he shouldn’t

We're getting beaten by senior leadership now. They're taking our freshmen to school.

 

[WVUALLEN]

We were there until the 14-0 scoring run when we didn't score for 5 minutes.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Knapper = 4-12 FG's.......that's 33%......

 

[WVUALLEN]

Knapper = 4-12 FG's.......that's 33%......

2-7 from 3 that's 28.5%

 

[spreadoption_rivals80969]

Still not fixed. Anybody have Mr. Fix It's phone number?

 

[WVUALLEN]

I believe the fix he's referring to is for next season.

 

[sg44gold]

So close and yet so far.

Knapper is our best guard. He will be back and further cemented that after playing solid tonight with 10 points, 0 turnovers and a couple really nice passes. He also defends solid.

Another double figure scoring game for Knapper in Big 12 play.

Meanwhile McCabe had 0 points, bad defense, couple bad turnovers, no assists. Haley also struggled. Knapper is getting better slowly but surely. Knapper needs to keep starting and play 30+ minutes the rest of year. He will end up a good player here. He’s only a freshmen. Knapper is better than McCabe and has higher ceiling. McCabe is just too slow, small. Not a good thing.

 

[WVUALLEN]

See what I'm talking about repetitive. Until you learn to accept the facts your final 4 threads will continue to be booted to the top.

 

[WVpride304]

Who cares. With Culver here all year never suspended and Konate healthy and never hurt along with Beetle healthy, never hurt this is a sweet 16 team again. Culver got behind being suspended that long the first 11 games with no practice. Konate year got screwed up with knee injury. If those 2 were together down low here every game 100% healthy along with 100% healthy Beetle we would be very good even with the miss recruits. Konate makes everyone better and he and a Culver would be a wall down low.

If we hit on 1 guard on top of what I just mentioned with a healthy Konate, Beetle and Culver never getting suspended we would be a Final 4 team. Just 1 guard away and those other unexpected things not happening.

McCabe had two assists including one beautiful bounce pass to Culver in the paint. Did you even watch the game? Everybody knows you have an agenda, but at least be truthful.

10 points.....on 12 shots......that's not good by any definition......

 

[WVpride304]

Knapper is coming along. He will be a good player here.

 

[WVUALLEN]

McCabe is as well. Did you watch the game where both were on the court at the same time? No you didn't. Pick a profile and stay on it.
