Summary

Chances are you haven't heard from him lately, but please know that Kevin Pittsnogle is comfortable and happy.

The West Virginia University icon has fond memories of his record-setting career as a Mountaineer basketball player but chooses to devote his attention on the future much more than the past.

The center with guard skills that became a nationally known phenomenon graciously declines interview requests. In the new world of athlete brand-building, Kevin Pittsnogle would rather be "brand-less."

In a rare interview, Kevin looks back at his evolution as a player and his current role of special education teacher and basketball coach.

Take a listen down basketball memory lane with one of the West Virginia's all-time greats.
