Kinda wild that like, let’s say a school wants to cab their coach but don’t want to pay his buyout…they could just like, have someone type up a resignation letter on his behalf.

Is this an elaborate scheme to give Huggins a second window of wild recruiting while outside of ncaa rules?    The first go round netted him a haul, turned Kstate around, and got him his dream job one year later.

Might be worth another try on his part.

In his letter, which was obtained by ESPN, David A. Campbell, an attorney representing Huggins, said Huggins' resignation correspondence with the school did not come from him but from his wife, June Huggins.

Feels like the play of a guy who decided he’s done coaching and might as well try to get a couple extra mil on his way out.

Wait, his defense for wanting his job back is his wife wrote the resignation?   Wild.

He was probably just recycling some cans before he posted that. Perfectly normal.

What I love about that rant is it feels about 13 years late.

Just holding it in all those years and now is the time to unleash the beast

I mean they knew what they had for years and also had a great opportunity to fire him with cause after he managed to insult both catholics and the lgbt community live on the radio

I think they also have opportunity to fire him with cause now based on him being too drunk to know what state he was in when he got pulled over.

I think Huggs could make a PSA to raise awareness of ignition interlock devices to that the average West Virginian doesn't suffer stigma from having to blow into a tube before their car will start.

I'm sure Frankie is crying for Huggs today.

What surprises me is how many people appear blind-sided by this behavior. Taking a step back and objectively observing Huggins throughout his career, how could anyone not perceive him as anything but a complete misanthrope? His petulant behavior on the sidelines, his demeaning treatment of players, and scorn for even Tony's and Jay's interviews. The man has been an arrogant prick from day one. For some reason WVU fans found his behavior endearing. He has been a brute to everyone for decades, and now that WVU is no longer on its collective knees for him, his true colors show.

It was never about WVU, WV, or the Mountaineers. It was always about Bob Huggins. From the beginning, the man walked around like WVU should be humbled that he graced the University with his employment. That players should feel lucky to play for him. That the state as a whole should be honored that he "returned" home to lead his "beloved" Mountaineers. It was all a farce.

His contract may say that he gets more money if he resigns after a certain date, which would explain why he's saying that he didn't resign.

They smoked his ass. My overwhelming takeaway from this is that three days after the DUI he was driving himself, by himself? They don't snatch your license for being that drunk?
