Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., released an ad Wednesday with several big endorsements from statewide sports figures — Nick Saban, coach of Alabama football, Jerry West, NBA legend, and Bob Huggins, West Virginia basketball coach. Manchin is in a tight race with GOP challenger Patrick Morrisey in a state that President Donald Trump won by 42 percentage points.
