It's about a little lower than halfway down in the middle of the screen if you have trouble seeing it.

I am just shocked it wasn't Huggins....

What do you expect to happen when idiots rush the court

What do you expect to happen when idiots rush the court

Fans rush basketball courts and football fields all the time. There's no "excuse, period!" for a player hitting a fan, unless he had to defend himself from harms way.

What? The fan did nothing to warrant that. You could tell when he got hit, he looked around is if to say "what was that"?

Remember, it happened at Edwards Stadium with the Miami coach.

I have no problem with fans rushing the court. I've don't it. Let the players leave the court before you do it. And we have no clue if the fan did nothing wrong  I'm sure he was talking junk. I'm not excusing what happened but it was 100% preventable

So even if he did say something as he was running by gives the player the OK to punch him> This was all on this WV player. And I have NEVER seen a football game or basketball game "wait" until the players leave before storming the court. The player was wrong period!!!!

Well, what is to be expected.  When Huggs teaches them to play in your face, physical, knock down type of basketball then why would you expect them to react any differently in situations other than the way they play for 40 minutes on the floor.  Huggs' players "ride" and mug opposing players with the fall 94' down the floor.  When Refs start calling the game a little close, then Huggs is constantly berating them, gesturing, yelling, etc. up and down the sidelines.  I find it ironic that Danny D. yells out from the sidelines, never uncrosses his arms, and gets T'ed up.  Huggs gets a bad call, in his eyes, and goes on constant 5-10 minute rants, with nothing called.  I guess some coaches with longevity and a lot of wins get special treatment, but the NCAA would vehemently deny this. 

Huggs' T (rhymes with Huggs).  I know the negative connotation that word carries.  But its an attitude and method of play that Bob Huggins seems awfully proud of, sad to say!

I was thinking the same thing when I watched them play Texas Tech.  Why does Danny get a T and Huggs gets by with verbal assault.

not sure but, we certainly don't expect them to be assaulted.

Hugging bear teams are punks! Watch it every team will be on them to knock them off their game!
