The Good?: Huggy Bear "gets it" when it comes to scheduling. Avoiding RPI killers is important, and WVU scheduled only one opponent above #200 in the RPI. Not to mention there are 5 top-100 foes on the slate, including a couple true road games (Cleveland State & Purdue) sure to test the Mountaineers' chops.

The (not so) Bad?: There are a couple trap games. Duquesne fell one game shy of the NCAA last season, and now appear capable of competing at the top of a balanced A-10. And Huggy's good friend Andy Kennedy may have a NCAA at-large contender at Ole Miss.

The Ugly?: How will Huggy's squad handle this schedule if both point guards (Truck Bryant & Joe Mazzulla) don't return from suspension?
