Huggins admitted to being backed into a corner when Carter and Miles were freshman. He literally said, "we can't score," so they had to do try something to even the odds. Press Virginia isn't a special style of play like the 90s Arkansas teams. It was done out of necessity in response to a failure to recruit offensively skilled players. Needing twenty turnovers to win a game is not a sign of good things. Imagine Holgerson expecting three interceptions a game to be competitive.
Worst Team Since Hinds, McCune, Forsyth Trainwreck Class....
- Thread starter Captain EER

Knapper's injury hurt from standpoint of having McCabe and Knapper in same class and each 5'10. Knapper should be a sophomore with a year's experience.
Harler should have seen the door after his freshman campaign. We would have an experienced two guard at this point who could play press virginia.
Haley was a last minute addition and clearly no one on coaching side forecasted this rotation of guards were band aids and targeting a scorer would have been useful instead of a 6-7 forward who can't score and shoot who plays PG often.
It's all bizarre.
So do we Blue Lotters...but Wichita State won't even look at our highlight tapes...what does that tell you???
Yes, and imagine the firestorm on this board if people were defending loses to non-P5 schools in football because the defense wasn't holding up its end by forcing 3 picks and recovering 2 fumbles. It's a preposterous expectation.
Poll every D1 coach in the country, give them the hypothetical of needing 20 plus turnovers a game to win, and ask them if they'd conclude their team was in a good state. None would answer "yes."

What? Why would WSU even consider watching WVU highlight tapes, and how would you now that?
Perhaps Wichita should have looked at Marshall tapes? Save them the embarrassment of losing to them last March......
