(Update: No Miles tonight.)

Daxter Miles, who left Saturday’s win against TCU with an apparent right hamstring injury, did not practice Sunday. We’re not sure if he practiced Monday and/or traveled here to Austin, Texas, for tonight’s game against No. 24/No. 25 Texas. Bob Huggins updated the situation before practice and the flight Monday, and WVU isn’t inclined to offer more than that. But if Miles did not practice, he did not travel and will not play.

This happens just when the Mountaineers, now No. 10 in the media poll and No. 11 in the coaches’ poll, pulled of a seemingly successful lineup change in February and when it looked like they might be back to normal as they near the finish line. Then Miles blew out a tired and needed to be carried about the Coliseum. “It’s always something,” Huggins said.

And this is something, not because Miles has been spectacular and irreplaceable, his 20-point game against Baylor notwithstanding. His absence would cause some ripples affecting the starting lineup, the bench, Jaysean Paige, Esa Ahmad, Jon Holton and Nate Adrian.
