I'm sure there's a little bias there... being that he's a high school coach in West Virginia and all...

What a HS football coach from WV thinks about where a kid from Pa will play basketball concerns me - but I will still wait to hear from Pryor's cousin's hairdresser.

I agree my coworker thinks the sun rises and sets in West Virginia....
But the Huiggins factor makes one wonder/ worry?

[Oh8ch]

It is a puzzlement to me how someone who wanted to play ball from someone like JT would also like to play ball for someone like Huggins.

It's been a variable in the equation for awhile. This homer's recently stated opinion doesn't really change where things stand now... which are promising.

In the end of the day, Terrell has the opp. to be the crown jewel of the top recruiting class, with argubaley one of the best O-Line classes ever. Everyone knows what a great line can do for you, that's been proven.

Not to mention future stud receivers to throw to in Stoneburner and Posey with the possibility of Thomas and Scott(unless he moves to D).

Amen!

[Oneshot]

Because of Huggins? He's a good coach but it's not exactly like we have minced meat over at THE Ohio State University.

Thad. Matta.

I thought the word was that Pryor's "people" weren't overly fond of tHuggins and his antics.

Certain aspects of it...agreed.

As I stated earlier in this thread - my impression was that when Huggins was at K-state Pryor told him no thanks - but when Huggins was at UC and now at West Virginia...there is real possibilty Huggins pulls in TP. Remember huggins has been all over TP since he was in 8th grade - way before anyone had heard of him as a football prospect. JO Stright (TP's former AAU coach) is good friends with Huggins. I don't think there was ever any hard feelings between the two - it was just mutually understood that TP (or his "people") would not consider K-state.

That said I still think he ultimatly ends up ! Just that WVU is not to be overlooked - which I realize pretty much everybody has been saying anyway - but perhaps WVU is more of a threat b/c of Huggins and not football? I dunno...I'm just sayin...

Which of these teams is most likely to have both a really good football team and a really good basketball team over the next four years?

A few actually, unless that is what you were getting at.
