Hi, Bob Huggins. So good to see you. As you know, the regular season is just around that corner over there. Are you confident the renovations to the Coliseum will be done in time?

“You act like you’re talking to Shane Lyons,” Huggins said. “I’ve never been confident about it.”

Oh? Oh. Oh!

“I guess the latest hope — ‘hope’ — is that we have part of it done, which should equal at least as many bathrooms as we’ve had before,” he said. “It’s going to be pretty much two gates instead of four. They’ve done some stuff for parking, which I think that’s really going to help, but you’re going to have two gates instead of four. I don’t know what that’s like.”

Yeah, you do. You’ve seen a sink that needed Drano.

“They acted like they were shocked that they found asbestos,” Huggins continued. “I mean, that blew me away. ‘Well, we didn’t know we’d run into asbestos.’ Well, the whole building is full of asbestos. Everybody knew that. Then I guess there were some structural things that they thought were there that weren’t there.”

I bet there are some mad men around here, because this sounds not great, Bob.

“Honestly, I worry about us trying to be a little more fan friendly,” he said. “It’s hard enough to travel through Morgantown, as we all know, because the roads haven’t changed since, I guess, Morgantown was founded. And then parking and getting in and out of here’s hard, and then we have two less gates and now it’s harder to get in the building. That’s my concern. We can play in it. That part of it’s fine, though our locker room’s not done.”

WVU’s regular-season schedule — now with start times and television assignments — begins at home on Nov. 11.
