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 Cusqueña, in honor of today's Miss Throwdown.
Big BIG BIG CONGRATULATIONS are due to Da`Sean Butler and Devin Ebanks!!!! Without doing any research, I don't think WVU has ever had 2 players selected in the same draft before (please correct me if I'm wrong). I've got full coverage of the draft fallout inside, as well as practice facility progress updates and a few FB stories as well. If you have any tips, suggestions or requests, you can send them to me by email or Tweet me. Have a great weekend everyone!!! Jump in...

I"m so excited for Da’Sean…. South Beach is perfect for him, I’m sure he will work his butt off as we see he is already on the espn piece they did on him, on his rehab…. his high character & work ethic will get him in the door, now to take advantage of this opportunity….. I’ll bet a good amount of WVU fans will now be Heat fans….I know I am already…..
If I have to hear the talking heads on ESpeoN say the University of West Virginia again I may scream
