John Flowers Loves West Virginia Fans

From everything I have seen, John Flowers is the best entertainer on WVU's basketball team. He started the season by winning the slam dunk contest at Mountaineer Madness, trademarked the catchphrase "So icey!!" and has gotten nothing but 10's for his pregame dances. He is an endless source of laughs.
He seemingly capped it all off with his Irish jig in front of the Notre Dame pep band but once again, he has outdone himself. Today, John Flowers is tweeting all the reason he loves Mountaineer fans. If you want to see the tweets live, follow him @jflow41. If you don't have twitter, just check back here all day for all the reason John Flowers loves West Virginia fans.
My comments about Flowers tweets are in italics.
- I love west Virginia fans bcuz they love us
- I love west Virginia fans bcuz y'all r so spirited!
- I love west Virginia fans bcuz if a fight broke out y'all would rush the court lol
- I love west Virginia fans bcuz there's millions of y'all

Kentucky Has No Clue What Is About To Happen

Charley West was in Lexington, KY today for "work." He took time out of his busy schedule to snap this picture. Is that all he did, or is this the start of a diabolical plan to help WVU defeat UK?
Stay tuned...

It's hard to get people to come to Blacksburg and play home-and-home. West Virginia, they wanted us to play in D.C. and then we'd play in Charleston, W.Va. Well, Charleston, W.Va., is a home game for West Virginia. Washington, D.C. ... is not a [Tech] home game.

Six More Wins To the National Championship

After an 11 point loss at UConn on February 22, things were looking down and I for one, did not think a deep run in the either the Big East or NCAA Tournaments were possible. Then Huggs gave his team an impassioned post game speech about the possibility of being special. The speech changed everything for this team. (6:45 mark)
Since that speech, WVU has looked like a different team, winning six straight games. Granted, the speech did not improve our inconsistency on offense but it definitely made usstep-up our intensity at both ends of the floor. Our guys have been diving on the floor, straining a little extra for rebounds and getting to every 50/50 loose ball.
During this run, I can't remember any of our players taking a possession off. They cut and set screens with a purpose and pressure the ball with a ferocity that has never been seen at WVU. This team is already special to WVU fans but they can take it to a different level with six more wins.
I have a great feeling about our chances. Let's Go Mountaineers!

Welcome, By-Godders, to the Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU's best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor and daily distractions; Now nationally recognized! We're being brought to you today by Moët et Chandon, in honor of a certain Big East Tournament Championship.
"If I can make it there, I'll make it...anywhere." Well, this team made it there. I guess we can make it anywhere. We won this one, but we ain't done yet. "I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps and find I'm a number one, top of the list, king of the hill, A Number One." OK, so we got "A Number 2" for the Big Dance. Lot's of BET Championship coverage to clean out and a look ahead to the big one. No time to rest on our laurels of this championship. There are bigger fish to fry. Beware the Ides of March, people. Keep the tips, suggestions and requests coming. See you inside...
