A night of nights. A night of dreams. The 26th Mountain State Derby:

We're running out of words to descibe the atmosphere inside Hope Coliseum on Saturday. In tonight's #MountaineerMinute, Sydney Cariel explains how Monday's crowd might be even better. 🔗: tinyurl.com/yccuwmwp

St. John’s just Marcus Caldeira’d Kansas in the tournament. IYKYK.

Tomorrow: Throwback Golds ✨ You know what to do 😉

"I was a DII grinder for a long time & I hosted some DII regionals & had some packed gyms, but nothing like this one.” Loved this genuine response from Coach Kellogg after WVU's first round win in front of a record-setting 13,504 fans 🔊⤵️ #HailWV | @CoachKellogg12

Mountaineer Nation showed up 👏 ... but who thinks we should climb a little higher on the list on Monday?

Second round is set ⏰ LIMITED 🎟️ REMAIN: bit.ly/25wbb321ncaati…

@walte61328 @GoldAndBlueNtn Every school in the country spends more on football than other sports. That’s nothing special. Atmospheres and tradition are. Not just here, but in Charleston for the prep championships. It’s not a debate, really.

@ByNickFarrell @GoldAndBlueNtn Look at the revenue spend on each sport at WVU 10 million 2024 basketball - a ton more for football. WVU is top 15 for n all-time football wins, top 25 in hoops. Jerry West was awesome but that era is gone

Absolutely incredible atmosphere. You should have heard the ovation when Jordan Harrison was introduced. West Virginia is a basketball state! 🏀

Attendance for the first round: 13,504 That’s a new @WVUWBB attendance record.

We will see you Monday!

FINAL: WVU 82 - Miami 54 Mountaineers advance to face Kentucky Monday. They can’t play Country Roads…so they’re playing Sweet Caroline. Incredible.

Less than a minute left. Ref just made a questionable call. Sold out Coliseum is letting him have it. I mean letting him HAVE it. WVU up 30 right now by the way.

Riley Makalusky just hit a three and then I think she blew a kiss at the RedHawk who was guarding her. Savage. 😂

Jordan Harrison nailed a buzzer beater to cap an 11-0 run to close the first quarter. It took a bit, but the press is finally causing havoc. This place is going bananas. WVU up 22-14 heading into the second quarter. #HailWV

@GaudetWeather @wrenbaker #BigChillDill J chillin behind the bucket, you love to see it.

Operation sellout = success cc @wrenbaker

@walte61328 @GoldAndBlueNtn The state that gave us the literal logo of the National Basketball Association is not a basketball state? Miss me with that.

@ByNickFarrell @GoldAndBlueNtn WVU is a great fan base- but not a basketball state- it’s a football State

20 minutes down and 20 more to go. #HailWV

Let’s go!!!!! @WVUWBB
