Huggs will be effected a little short term, but long term not much. He'll still be fine with most recruiting connections and he'll build a solid program at WVU if he goes there. K-State will get the ultimate job and some of the kids a little bit.
There's some truth to what you say when you consider that a year ago Huggins was untouchable and no one would consider hiring him. Here we sit 12 months later and his alma matter are putting on a full court suitcases full of money bags Eddie Sutton recruiting like, push on for him.
If he does leave he most certainly will tarnish his name, for what he did to the kids and our school, but, like I said, everyone will move on and forget once he starts winning again.
