I really enjoy teams that recruit players that are thought to be “2nd class citizens”, renegades, JUCO failures and/or other diminishing characteristics. It’s a major reason I loved Huggs before he came to WVU and also why I have always loved Kelvin Sampson, Jerry Tarkanian, etc.
These guys are junkyard dogs. They are usually insanely lengthy, very athletic, can or cannot shoot and they play with insane enthusiasm and effort. These are the sorts of players that aren’t soft and can allow verbal bashing ricochet off of them and allow for internal improvement.
Go Cougs (or Razorbacks) and f*** off Duke and UNC. It would be a big f*** you to the NCAA elite, CBS and Jim Nantz. They wouldn’t know what to do if they couldn’t suck Coach K, Izzo or Roy Williams.
