Summary

It’s a pivotal pause in the Big 12 grind for the West Virginia basketball team. Coach Ross Hodge’s Mountaineers finally get their first extended break of conference play—and it couldn’t come at a better time.

WVU may have been showing some wear after a punishing stretch of six games in 18 days, capped by a four-thousand-mile roundtrip swing to Arizona.

In this episode, the “Guys” look back at Sunday’s loss to No. 16 Texas Tech and take a hard look at what lies ahead in the Big 12 stretch run.

Hoppy delivers his Obvious Observations, and listener questions and comments wrap up the show with Textual Healing.
