West Viriginia just lost again, this time to Michigan at a tournament in NYC. AP reports coach Huggins as saying "I'm sick of watching guys missing shot after shot and then never coming in early and never staying late. They don't think about coming in on an off day. I've never had guys like this before. I want some guys that care". Later on in the article it says that Huggins has benched Aaric Murray, and did not bring him to NYC for the tournament.

And now another school is standing in Aaric's way of being great? Poor kid can't catch a break!

I guess Huggy was acting real?
Hate to bring up old wounds but I think this puts to bed that notion that Huggy would have done better than G handling Murray. It's a shame because who would pay this young man to play professional basketball?

The Aaric Murray story is such a sad one and the end of it looks like it will be even worse.....

Yeah, that was just a complete teardown right there and I don't doubt for a second it was deserved. I was one of Murray's last defenders, in part because I didn't (and really, still don't) think he was a bad kid, just a really selfish, really immature kid. That kind of kid is salvageable and worth salvaging, but he's running out of time. He's 23, still in college and quickly running out of time to realize he could be a basketball star rather than already is a basketball star.

What a total idiot that kid is. Is he still tweeting classless stuff?
I won't wish him ill, but I also won't lie, the article did make me smile. To have all of that talent and just squander it like that. smh

His twitter says he just had a friend die last week. You knew there had to be an angle where Huggins was being an ass too.
