I follow the Mountaineers very closely (it's a family thing) and Oscar Tshiebwe was a bit of a drama queen. He wasn't always that way but people deal with publicity and attention differently and it got the worst of him. He became lazy this season so Coach Huggins cut his minutes. Oscar took it personal instead of working hard like he did last season. From what I hear most WVU fans think his leaving is for the best overall. Huggy Bear doesn't put up with players who don't give 100%. And there were outside influences involved as well. Oscar's going to play for Kentucky and Huggins said he's fine with it. Huggy's an old friend of UK Coach Calipari.

Thanks, that sounds exactly the opposite of what is happening to Watson in Spokane. His time was cut, then his starting job, then he worked hard and his scoring went up and he's back to starting. It is sad to see young people get lazy like that and not try to improve areas of weakness, but hope Cal can turn him around as he demands a lot out of his players like Huggy Bear.

Falling Domino Flashback: March 12, 2020, the XFL shuts down due to Covid-19 concerns and basically goes out of business after just 5 weeks worth of games. Then along comes Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and friends on August 2, 2020 and they buy the league for $15 million and vow to bring it back in 2022. I hope so, because I enjoyed the games I saw on TV and they had pretty good attendance.

And this on top of losing their top rim protector too within recent weeks. I hope things turn around for WVU.

West Virginia @ Baylor postponed as well.

I wish there was more news on the why, especially with the travel distance. I'm curious if some of these may be local laws such as Santa Clara and Pacific last week which both played on Saturday, but in the state of California. I also remember a game earlier this year in the Pac-12 where the reason that was neither team, but that the ref's tests didn't come back in time to play the game.

If not positive tests with in Baylor's program, too bad this came out so late as I know both Baylor and Gonzaga still want to play that game from earlier this year that Covid in Gonzaga's program postponed. Gonzaga's conference doesn't play on Tuesdays, so it could have been a game that could have been played and Gonzaga already proved they will make games fast with the BYU game last week when both lost conference opponents. This could have been the perfect time to reschedule the game from December.

laker I expect more FCS dominoes will fall as well. I don't blame them, it's always best to put health and safety concerns first.
