It's been 2,156 days since the West Virginia Mountaineers won a basketball game against the Baylor Bears. Does that drought finally come to an end today?
Baylor has won seven straight games against West Virginia, including four straight in Morgantown. They may be a team with a poor record, but as long as Scott Drew is the coach in Waco, you can never count them out.
A desperate Baylor Bears team will stroll into Morgantown this evening, looking to put a huge damper on West Virginia's hopes of making the tournament by handing them their first home loss of the season.
Much of West Virginia's 2026 recruiting class is in place, meaning the February signing period should be a relatively quiet one for Rich Rod and Co. Others around the country may be a little more active, which could shuffle the recruiting rankings in the coming weeks, but as of this morning, Craig Haubert ranked WVU's class No.
For the second time in this 2027 recruiting cycle, the West Virginia Mountaineers have lost a commitment. On Thursday, four-star running back Armand Hill (5'10", 185 lbs) of West Mifflin, PA, decommitted from the program, bringing the class back down to zero pledges for the time being.
It hasn't been perfect, but Ross Hodge continues to win. Tuesday night was a perfect example of that as the Mountaineers got out to an extremely slow start and saw a 10-point lead evaporate in the second half against Kansas State, thanks to the Wildcats knocking down some shots and West Virginia going on a seven-minute scoring drought.
With last night's narrow win over Kansas State, West Virginia has kept its NCAA Tournament resume in decent shape, although there's a tremendous amount of work to be done.
Not every win is a Mona Lisa. Sometimes they're just downright ugly. Last night, that happened to be the manner in which West Virginia took down Kansas State, 59-54.
The streak stays alive! West Virginia took down Kansas State in a scrappy battle Tuesday night, 59-54, extending their home winning streak to 16, which dates back to last year.
The West Virginia Mountaineers (13-7, 4-3) return to the Hope Coliseum after a two-game road trip to the state of Arizona and host the Kansas State Wildcats (10-10, 1-6) Tuesday night.
The next game on the schedule is the most important one. You've heard Ross Hodge say that umpteen times now, and he's right. While Kansas State may not go down as a signature win on the resume, it could be a stain if you allow them to come into Morgantown and beat you on your home floor.
In the early to mid-2000s, the West Virginia Mountaineers were among the top teams in college football. They showcased a dynamic offense that many have since attempted to replicate.
