WVU once again has taken it upon itself to bring the broom out against the herd in the "classic" aka... state government home game. Anyway, the women were first up and played a back and forth game with the Marshall ladies, but in the end they settled the matter quite nicely 74-65. The Men after trailing 4 to nadda decided to dish out a laugher against the Herd. The men were out in front by as many as 21 but the Herd hit some long balls to make it closer but the Eers managed a sound double digit win 87-76. It was a night where "Truck" Bryant really took control playing a better brand of defense than he has all year. It was nice to see him perform well on both sides of the ball. His teammate Da said, "Truck scored; he played defense solidly... He just has to play more consistently on defense. But he had a nice little thing going on.'' Huggs felt that WVU got what it wanted from Marshall. I gathered from his post game interview that he was underwhelmed by some of the intensity that let Marshall get the game close to single digits but he was "happy" to see the team close out the win. Now on to the painful Big East Schedule.
On another note rumors are starting to surface that Joe Alexander is on the trading block. From Milwaukee to Memphis, as details become available I will forward the same to you.
