In 33 games, Bridges averaged 8.4 points and 4.8 rebounds per game. Although he had a few big games here and there, the expectation was that he would develop into a third scorer for the Mountaineers alongside Taz Sherman and Sean McNeil. Unfortunately, the consistency wasn't there and it might end up being a good parting of ways for both parties.

Bridges also considered Alabama, Ohio State, and Michigan State.
