UPDATE – 7 a.m.

WVU men’s basketball was among the most improved major conference teams last season in terms of win differential compared to 2018-2019. The Mountaineers have nearly everyone back for this season, do you think they can improve on that number? Let us know in the comments.

These teams turned things around in a big way last season 📈
