KAren SYpher

What's Karen Sypher have to do with West Virginia or Bob Huggins?

She was Rick Pitino's table top lover in Louisville ......... who went to prison for extortion

As that style of school, they fit with the Big Twelve, although geography and demographics, they fit less. Any of their fans who are mocking other schools is very oxy moronic.

It is Texas and Oklahoma, and Kansas and Baylor that would be the prize for Memphis, although a WVU would be pleasant too...and would have made more sense a dozen years ago when the then eight team Big East football should have been pre emptive before the ACC raping by adding then Louisville, Memphis, ECU and Cincy to make a much more geographical and fairly strong league that would have been attractive enough to hold Miami and VTech.

UConn, BC, Pitt, Rutgers, Syracuse, Cincy
Memphis, ECU, Miami, VTech, Louisville, WV

May have been strong enough. They blew it...and we have what we have.

Back in 2003, a better choice would have been Southern Miss instead of ECU.

Of course, convincing the northeast bluebloods to venture into Hattiesburg would be a major battle.

the students at WVU kept chanting her name after this became public when Pition and the Cards came in to play them.....it was somewhat classless.....something that their student body was and is known for

I think posters here should treat WV fans in the exactly the same way as they are allowed to interact with other posters. It is sure to create a positive impression.

Heard the OKstate chants at our own game directed at Dixon Jr...
Didn't know what that name meant. Why do I still want to turn a fire hose on them.

pretty distressing game, all in all. Pretty distressing chants too.

Calipari told the KY fans that if they did that when Pitino's Cards came to Rupp, he would walk off the court

crossing the line is crossing the line - Huggins never stopped them and they continued throughout the game - too personal if you ask me

Worse than personal. Worse than disgusting of them. Students are there to be 'taught'..even the fan section needs teachin'.

Not a Huggy fan. NOt a fan of anyone who screams at the top of his lungs point blank in a person's ear. That's called abuse. Ear drums don't forget.

Which team will be using our facilities? Or will both be doing so. How do we make ourselves more attractive to the Big 12 representatives who will be in town?

taint us make us bitter.. lol You could try red lipstick, hose and stilettos and a short skirt.
