He had a smile on his face, energy in his bones and a plan to make it all better. “This one was really more about just trying to get back to me being me,” he said. Which is what Obioha basically did in helping WVU erase an eight-point deficit midway through the second half and leading the Mountaineers to an 86-75 runaway win against No. 22 Kansas on Saturday inside the Hope Coliseum.
