Why West Virginia can win the Final Four

West Virginia has shown that it is among the best teams in the country. Winning the Big East tournament and the management of Kentucky, with its full range of youth is rapidly taking over the NBA, in the Eastern Region final should have erased any doubt.
But Monday night, shortly after the final buzzer, the Mountaineers faithful to sing about how their country is "almost heaven", because Indianapolis will be paradise on earth.
More than half a century after Jerry West Club WVU lost a heartbreaking final in California, a school that has produced the man who is the NBA logo will take orders for T-shirts NCAA.
Why?
Bob Huggins' defense never rests, and the players that coaches are also mentally tough as they come.
Neither injuries nor the routine play in the Big East, or what some say was the injustice of being given a No. 2 seed and playing in the Eastern Kentucky area stopped the march to the title.
And earlier this month of April during the same.
"However, we found a way to win," said Butler Da'Sean top scorer last week. It was after a regional team that starting point guard Darryl Bryant was with a broken foot suffered two days before the showdown with Washington's Sweet 16, and the Mountaineers could not make a basket with two points in the first half against Kentucky, but still led at halftime, along with eight triples, their defense did not allow the Wildcats to get the ball inside and closed, literally, three shooters points in Kentucky until the game was virtually decided.
Much has been said of Huggins 1-3-1 zone with long, athletic players on the wings force the enemy into bad shots.
This area will probably show again this weekend, but the Highlanders will probably not be afraid to play man to man against the Duke, and they have players to do.
These are the players like Butler, Devin Ebanks, Kevin Jones, Wellington Silva, John Flores and the last hero of the Mountain State, guard Joe Mazzullo, who got his first start of the season against Kentucky in the absence of Bryant and responded to 17 points for being named MVP in the region.
Huggins said he told his players the day he returned to his native Morgantown returned to his alma mater to win a title. It was something that eluded him during his tenure in Cincinnati and something away from WVU barely half a century ago the 71-70 loss to California.
It took only three seasons Huggins for the program for the doors of this title. Monday evening, one of the worst teams in the nation will be called something else - national champion.
