Culver emerges as Konate’s return becomes murkier

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — To be quick to the point, West Virginia forward Derek Culver is well aware of people’s interest in his story.

He does not shy away from the fact he missed the first game this season, because he was late for classes, a practice and study halls.He was then suspended for the next nine games when the tardy slips continued to pile up.

Culver agrees the suspension did him some good and made him realize he had to take responsibility for his actions outside of basketball.

He says all of the right things, even when asked about it repeatedly.
