Huggins Adds Volodymyr Gerun to Roster
It looks like Huggins found a way to fill Pat Forsythe's scholarship. IMO it was an upgrade...
Huggins Adds Volodymyr Gerun to RosterQuote:Volodymyr Gerun, a 6-foot-10, 240-pound forward from Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine, has signed a grant-in-aid to attend West Virginia University in 2012-13, WVU coach Bob Huggins announced today. The sophomore will have three years of eligibility remaining with the Mountaineers.
"We're extremely happy to have Volodymyr in our program," says Huggins. "He brings us much-needed depth to our front line. We think he will bring an added dimension of skill level to our front line."
At the 2011 under-18 European Championships, where his team finished 5-4, Gerun led Ukraine in scoring (18.2), rebounding (11.1) and blocks (2.1). He posted 29 points and 14 rebounds against Italy. Gerun also posted double-doubles against Finland (19 points, 20 rebounds), Greece (16 points, 18 rebounds), Finland (23 points and 14 rebounds) and Czech Republic (25 points and 10 rebounds). He had 23 points against Greece. In those nine games, Gerun shot 50.0 percent (61 for 122) from the field, averaging 34.3 minutes per game.

Hope so. Sounds like he's going to be a good one as he grows into the position.

There are now 7 forwards and centers listed on WVU's roster. Although SFs Aaron Brown (6'5") and Keaton Miles (6'6") aren't all that big...
