He was an assistant at Creighton, and as a head coach he took Drake to the NCAA Tournament 3 times in 6 years. This year WV is 9-2, so far. They already have wins over Gonzaga and Arizona. It also doesn't hurt, that DeVries' (a 6'7" former MVP of the MVC) transferred to play for his dad.

Don't be shocked when WV is a difficult team to beat in the Big 12.
