The Mountaineer basketball team has entered the most unusual stretch of its season.

With practice time outweighing game minutes, execution, rhythm, and rotation decisions take center stage.

In this episode, the “Guys” break down what matters most in Monday’s game, examine how this extended pause can work to WVU’s advantage, and turn their attention to the latest developments in Mountaineer football recruiting.

Listener questions and comments wrap up the show on Textual Healing.
