the gritty WVU glue guy who did the dirty work
In the 2010-11 season, Cam Thoroughman was a classic Bob Huggins role player for West Virginia: low-usage, high-effort, and built for hustle, finishing with 3.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 0.2 blocks per game while starting 17 of 33 games. He wasn’t a polished scorer, but his value came from toughness, screen-setting, extra possessions, and doing the unglamorous stuff that helps winning teams survive the Big East grind. If your team wants edge, rebounding, and defensive nastiness over flash, he’s your guy.
