Bob Huggins (3), West Virginia. Huggs is chronically underrated, perhaps because he’s not out beating Mike Krzyzewski and John Calipari for five-star recruits. But yet again, he has taken a team few people were talking about before the season and crafted it into a big-time winner. The Mountaineers are 20-5, tied for first in the murderous Big 12 and ranked in the AP Top 10. Press Virginia is a classic Huggins team: all confrontation, all the time. WVU leads the nation in turnovers forced and steals per possession, while also putting opponents on the foul line more than anyone else in the land. The next three games – at Texas on Tuesday, home against Oklahoma and Iowa State – may decide whether WVU can win its first Big 12 title.
