Bizjack’s Praise Signals Potential Tournament Run
Finley Bizjack, who left Butler for West Virginia, quickly made clear that the Mountaineers have become the most talented squad he has ever suited up for. The former Butler scoring standout highlighted the depth of the roster, name‑checking Miles Sadler, Seydou Traore, Javan Buchanan, Mo Sylla, Joson Sanon and Martin Somerville as players who elevate the team’s ceiling.
Bizjack’s optimism comes at a time when the program is looking to break a three‑year NCAA Tournament drought. Butler’s last appearance was in 2018; since then the Bulldogs have lingered in the NIT and the College Basketball Crown, while the Mountaineers captured the Crown title last season and are now viewed as a legitimate contender for March Madness.
The transfer’s confidence is not just personal pride. He argues that the current WVU lineup surpasses any Butler squad he experienced, suggesting that the Mountaineers could secure an NCAA berth and bring renewed excitement to a campus that has waited years for a tournament return.
