Glad to see Emmitt Matthews return. Even though he left, he did not have any bad words to say about our coaches, or the fans. Welcome back to Mountaineer Nation.
I’m glad Emmitt came back. I hope he speaks about the return openly. I also hope he dedicates himself self to a year of all out leave it on the floor hard nosed BB. More importantly I hope the Mountaineer fan base embraces his return and welcomes him HOME
Huggins is a great coach he wins with less WVU great tradition, we will never be a blue blood but we will be competitive, hard working an Motown will always be a tuff place to play one of the greatest fan bases , don't understand people going public with BS attack players , negative fans hurt recruiting ,need to worry about being better fans ,I understand frustration, but need to to keep in check ,its a game and our guys put in alot of hard work and deserve respect. Been watching ,listening on radio since the late 60's love all those guys GOLD AN BLUE , Great memories.
This makes a lot of sense.Not a lot returners with alot of experience .Emmitt was at WVU long enough to help with that.Shocked but, it makes slot of sense.Always thought he was a good basketball player.With the lack of proven scorers Emmitt can step up and being the man.
We have already signed two big men; Jimmy Bell & Mohammed Wague. We also have James Okonkwo coming back. They were planning to use the last spot on a wing player anyway I believe.
@@zacharyvalloric9076 just need to quit being a hater and how do you know are you the coach no Emmett has alot of experience and yes he will be a leader of the team he has more experience than anyone on the team he has been to a sweet 16 in the NCAA tournament.
@@wvumountaineerlairwithkenn4831 buddy you sound stupid I’m this teams biggest supporter no one spends more money or knows more about this team it’s called loyalty something you know nothing about it’s not ok to go to greener grass then find out it isn’t greener so before you try to clout chase make sense say something original I bleed this team have it in my skin smh 🤦♂️
I love it! He knows what he is getting into. He didnt have to come back but he wants to. I think he can be a great contributor. Plus I never heard anything negative personality wise about him. Excited to see what he can do next year.
well itll be interesting to see his return to us from Washington. I do believe in redemption and second chances so i hope he will do well. great content as always Couz my friend and lets go mountaineers!
Hey Couz! I love it! Emmitt is a good return to Morgantown. As you stated...he can be that leader we need in the locker room and on the court due to the youth on the team. He can also help on the offense and the defense (wish we had Gabe for one more....what a team it would be). Last, Emmitt's return will allow Hugs to redshirt his freshmen. Another thing you stated, there wasn't any bad feelings when Emmitt left or he wouldn't have returned to Morgantown. I bet Hugs is happy having him back too! Hey, will we still have one scholarship to use? Later Couz! Goooo Mountaineers!!!
Definitely not a bad one. In a perfect world, I'd have emmit AND an elite scorer out there. But based on the guys I've seen that WVU has been in contact with, I like emmit the best
Great news. He was a pretty good facilitator/leader when he was here the first time. Sometimes that’s better than any individual numbers. I wonder if this sign that some of his former teammates are thinking about about return as well.
He definitely has the potential to be our best player this year. He has had somewhat regular flashes of his breakout game against Texas Tech as a freshman, and has shown the willingness to to really fight for rebounds. The problem was always consistancy, and that usually develops over time. Here's hoping he is basketball's version of David Sills.
One thing I wonder.... what will the narrative be about Huggs if Jalen blossoms into a star at Baylor the year after Oscar did at UK?? I'm not rooting against the kid, but God I don't want people to think Huggs can't develop players either!!
I wonder the same, but every player and situation is different. Huggs and the WVU staff have a lot to do with Oscar’s success. He learned how to be an elite rebounder at WVU.
I’m late to the party but wanted to express my approval of EM’s return. I never understood the ire he drew in the first place. His return will pay dividends.
To me this is not so much huggs this is more abt Emmitt bc he’s played for huggs b4 and no that Washington wasn’t good and he feel like he knows we can win wth who’s coming in
When the NCAA created the revolving door called the portal they created a mess. Young athletes no longer have to try to make their teams better, just transfer. Crumby life lesson IMO. I am about finished with the faux ametuers in college sports.
He's obviously not that good of a player or he could have chose to go somewhere besides Washington but I don't know why y'all are so happy that he's coming back it's obvious he didn't want to be there or he wouldn't have left him again with so why let him come back tell him to kick rocks
@@CouzsCornerSports okay if you say so but I don't agree with it where was the loyalty when he left the program? Just like these college football players that opt out of the bowl games just because they don't make it to a bowl game they want to be in and leaves their teammates high and dry that just shows the lack of loyalty to their program
Glad to see Emmitt Matthews return. Even though he left, he did not have any bad words to say about our coaches, or the fans. Welcome back to Mountaineer Nation.
Just needed to be closer to home in the state of Washington for a while. After entering the portal last year, he called WVU.
Welcome back Emmitt! Glad your home pal!!!
Very glad that Emmitt decided to come back to Wvu✅
I’m glad Emmitt came back. I hope he speaks about the return openly. I also hope he dedicates himself self to a year of all out leave it on the floor hard nosed BB. More importantly I hope the Mountaineer fan base embraces his return and welcomes him HOME
So far, the response I’ve seen has been mostly positive. There’s always a few naysayers, but so far so good.
I'm glad he decided to come back. He will be a great influence on the young guys and those transfers coming in.

No we’ve moved on
Numbers lie sometimes … 2/4 is 50% … he will use up a slot we need for a big man
We have already signed two big men; Jimmy Bell & Mohammed Wague. We also have James Okonkwo coming back. They were planning to use the last spot on a wing player anyway I believe.
So happy about Emmett Mathews and he has a chance of being the guy to run the team.
No guy that left and came back will lead anything

Plus he knows coach Huggins better than anyone on the team and what to expect.

Welcome back home E! Hope you are ready to take the top off the Coliseum!
Love the vedio couze love emmitt love ur stuff brother keep it up bro !!
Thank you
This is good. He has knowledge on how to play for Coach and knows the program. I see this as an advantage. A little more hopeful for next season 😈
Once a mountneer always a mountaineer
West Virginia fans love their players rather be football basketball etc. and it’s nice to see one of them come back home👍🏻
I love it! He knows what he is getting into. He didnt have to come back but he wants to. I think he can be a great contributor. Plus I never heard anything negative personality wise about him. Excited to see what he can do next year.
I'm not enthralled but I am pleased and I think he will be better in his final season.
That’s fair.
He was one of my favorite players I have met him great young man with a great personality.
I have that same light fixture in my house.
Cool. Those LED lights are the way to go. No fooling with bulbs anymore.
well itll be interesting to see his return to us from Washington. I do believe in redemption and second chances so i hope he will do well. great content as always Couz my friend and lets go mountaineers!
Let’s Go!
It’s a good move
I’m actually excited about this because he loves wvu and he has stuff to prove
💯

No, apparently that was the last scholarship. However, Huggs said he may still add one more? 🤷♂️ Maybe he thinks someone will leave.
Definitely not a bad one. In a perfect world, I'd have emmit AND an elite scorer out there. But based on the guys I've seen that WVU has been in contact with, I like emmit the best
His dunk on tt in the conf tourn was actually one of the best plays ive seen by a guy in a wvu jersey.
It was much needed for WVU. I mean the depth is needed, and the experience will help. It’s the matter of how many wins will that translate too.
Time will tell, but I feel good about the direction they are headed.
good move
He also bring more players to WVU a great addition to our program.
Great news. He was a pretty good facilitator/leader when he was here the first time. Sometimes that’s better than any individual numbers. I wonder if this sign that some of his former teammates are thinking about about return as well.
I have zero problem with him returning , I by far would not say the same about every athlete who's transfered out of here !
He definitely has the potential to be our best player this year. He has had somewhat regular flashes of his breakout game against Texas Tech as a freshman, and has shown the willingness to to really fight for rebounds. The problem was always consistancy, and that usually develops over time. Here's hoping he is basketball's version of David Sills.
I honestly want to see how Jalen bridges does with Baylor if he starts or is on the bench I think he will do good even tho it kills me that he left!
He will start because the likelihood Matthew Mayer coming back is slim since baylor added a transfer forward from byu.
One thing I wonder.... what will the narrative be about Huggs if Jalen blossoms into a star at Baylor the year after Oscar did at UK?? I'm not rooting against the kid, but God I don't want people to think Huggs can't develop players either!!
Yea
I wonder the same, but every player and situation is different. Huggs and the WVU staff have a lot to do with Oscar’s success. He learned how to be an elite rebounder at WVU.
@@CouzsCornerSports yea I was going to say Oscar didn’t suck at wvu but he just got into foul trouble!
A good idea for hugs to bring in it back I think Huggins should pay Matthews for good PR
Love emmitt bro love ur vedios my brother great vedio couze
I’m late to the party but wanted to express my approval of EM’s return. I never understood the ire he drew in the first place. His return will pay dividends.
I was wondering why he left to begin with. He always seemed happy here. I know he is from Washington but ya know
I get it.
WVU just took NT fom GT...I told people we had problems up front and there not sold on some players we have on the DL!!!
Do you think we will add another player?
It’s hard to say. Someone else would have to leave. Emmitt got the last scholarship.
Did WVU get better when Bridges and McNeil transferred? My guess is yes.
I guess we will find out, but I lean toward agreeing with you.
To me this is not so much huggs this is more abt Emmitt bc he’s played for huggs b4 and no that Washington wasn’t good and he feel like he knows we can win wth who’s coming in
That, and him and the kid coming in from South Carolina Stephenson are both from the same place and are very good friends.
Couz I’m twisted on this I love him but he left flat out
I understand. I had no issue with him leaving because he went back home. He’s from Washington.
Wonder why he left Washington?
Hard to say.
Portal is a problem… this disrupts people lives ..it bad
When the NCAA created the revolving door called the portal they created a mess. Young athletes no longer have to try to make their teams better, just transfer. Crumby life lesson IMO. I am about finished with the faux ametuers in college sports.
Wasnt the numbers. His head was never in the game...he put up 11 a game at washington. He was a turnover waiting 2 happen. Hope he improves
He's obviously not that good of a player or he could have chose to go somewhere besides Washington but I don't know why y'all are so happy that he's coming back it's obvious he didn't want to be there or he wouldn't have left him again with so why let him come back tell him to kick rocks
He averaged almost 12/game at a power 5 school. He left on good terms, so why not take him back? We need some senior leadership on that team.
@@CouzsCornerSports okay if you say so but I don't agree with it where was the loyalty when he left the program?
Just like these college football players that opt out of the bowl games just because they don't make it to a bowl game they want to be in and leaves their teammates high and dry that just shows the lack of loyalty to their program
