The Sock 'Em, Bust 'Em Board Because that's our custom

Seems Everhart and WVU could have some longevity

If you listened to the gentlemen speak on a teleconference yesterday — that is, if you could hear them over the one dolt who was not familiar with the *6 mute concept and breathed heavily throughout the call to basically cover up and mute everything Bob Huggins and Ron Everhart said — you heard how Everhart’s deal with WVU came together pretty quickly and just last week.

I wonder if Everhart was talking with someone before the “interview” and that someone told him to break a leg. Because the guy broke a toe to get with Huggins previously.

But this had been in the works for a long time and even further back than the little getaway the two had in the beginning of April. If you had some concerns over how long Everhart would be on the staff, if you worried Huggins might be making a third move in as many years next offseason to find the right mix that has seemingly eluded him of late, all because the head coaching itch is too strong for Everhart to not scratch, get a look at this: Everhart does not sound interested in being a head coach again and said he might have left a head coaching job to join Huggins anyhow.

No, seriously. It nearly happened before and Everhart still thinks about that decision and what it meant.

“I messed it up one time before and I was really hoping it would work out better the second time,” he said. “Earlier in my career, I considered it. I really was going to leave a head coaching position to go work with Coach Huggins, and maybe in a lot of ways I regret not doing that at that point in time.”
