The Shotgun/Throwdown: Monday (4/19/10) Edition

Bayside_20blonde_medium

Welcome, By-Godders, to the Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU's nationally recognized best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor and daily distractions.  We're being brought to you today by Shipwrecked Bayside Blonde Ale, in honor of today's Miss Throwdown.

Spring Practice marches on.  There was a scrimmage over the weekend and the injury bug is still sticking around, it seems.  There was also an award for Huggs announced over the weekend.  I've got you covered.  Email your tips, suggestions and requests or Tweet at me.  See you after the jump...

It Doesn't Appear We Lost Much....

…when we lost the Terrelle Pryor sweepstakes.

Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.

Lamb

I really thought Huggins would land Doron with the season we had. I am getting frustrated that we gabby been able to land more blue chip recruits. How did he do it at kansas state and why won’t they come to Wvu? Someone jump in and explain.

Well if you listen to the guys from CFT
