Always will be.

It's like saying "I had a million dollars at one time, but not now"
Doesn't make you a millionaire.

What would it take for it not to be fool's gold in your opinion? WVU has had the longest run of basketball success in its history between 2008 and now and came the closest it ever has to a national championship since WVU had the greatest player in all of college basketball. 10 NCAA tournament berths (including last year before COVID) in the last 13 seasons and 5 of those times advanced to the second weekend of play. Sure today was a ****** loss, but your broken record shtick of acting like WVU could easily find someone else to have a better 13 season run than Huggs is tiresome.

TVZ ruined this board with his 30+ accounts. Imagine being an adult sitting on a computer all day making accounts and alternating. Must be mentally retarded or on fake disability to have all that empty time.

ehhh your last sentence is debatable. Beilein could come back and have equal or more success. He turned around both WVU and Michigan, which is not easy to do. While Beilein saved the program and turned it around, I'd say other coaches can keep up what Huggins has done.

We had Beilien and he left for greener pastures. We also almost had Jockitch instead. I'm not saying there are not better coaches out there. I am saying that a majority are not. I am saying that finding a coach that can have Huggins level of success and stay for 14 seasons isn't easy. I am also saying that Huggins level of success at a program like WVU is commendable and a real accomplishment, not "fool's gold." Huggins doesn't have many years left in him and is still fielding teams better than most in WVU's basketball history.

He only comes around after losses with no logical thought.

JB will never return so forget it. If he did he could have be worse than the first time or be the best ever we will never know. Beilien might have saved us from death of Jockitch but Huggins perfected it. We may never have 2 better back to back coaches again. Huggins has better track record at WVU than Beilien. If JB had stayed 15 years instead of 5 and trying his best to leave after 3 years he might have done better. But JB only had a .500 conference record in Big East 40-40 and .634 winning percentage while here. JB started winning and wanted out.

Other Coaches would be lucky to hold Catlett's jock strap. Much less JB or Huggins.

Need to get a Life.
Doesn't Ohio State have a game. Why you worried about your Daddy, WVU?
I forgot you are a Marshall Fan
Wrong again. No coward quite like one who's afraid to post under his most annoying handle of all 35 of them: TrollVanZandt. Nobody believes that you're a Texas fan, so no need to hide behind your d!ck head moniker any longer, TVZ. You gave yourself away again today when you posted about OSU's guards. TVZ is a broken record about Big 12 guards.

I don't know what is going on between you and TVZ. Have more important matters to talk about

As far as Beilein goes...his wife HATED WVU and wanted out. I don't know how John felt, but the stories about his wife are everywhere from those in the know back then.

My point? Staying in a job you love ain't going to happen if your wife is salty about it.

No...John would never come back.

Yeah, don’t think his wife was happy here.
