Title: DeCoursy/Underwood/Huggins
Post by: Ptolemy on February 22, 2017, 09:35:22 AM
Mike DeCoursy says that Underwood wouldn't go to KState after 1 year at Okie State, and said no coaches have ever done parallel moves like that. When queried about Huggins leaving KState after 1 year to go home to West Virginia he says, "Huggins didn't REALLY want to go to Kansas State. He wanted to be at Cincinnati."

Such logic!

He did have the whole drinking thing, which deterred other colleges from hiring him.  Of course he didn't want to come to K-State, but we were his only option at the time.  He took advantage of the situation and made the best of it. 


Damn!  He trippin' so hard fans are gonna think he done fell off!

He told me on Twitter that nobody else wanted Huggins when he came to KState.

would huggie have left for WVU after 1 year at K-State had WVU been in the Big 12 at that point?  IDK, but may have made it harder.  There's zero chance to get Underwood after this year, but still, Wednesday's are for the cows!

Ask Jon Sundvold if Missouri wanted Huggins.

I remember I finally got a Huggieville shirt, and then he left like a week later.

It was more than just Huggins.  He had the Beasley, Walker, Mayo package to offer.  Would Currie signed the package?

You're not remembering that correctly.
