Huggins Demands Reinstatement Threatens To Sue

[kcsu]

Dude literally met with the team to announce he was leaving. What a joke he is becoming

Huggy might not remember that.

 

[UpstateSM]

Man, Jesse's dad screwed the pooch.

He’d play for Utica College if they paid the most. They don’t care.

Thread on the WV forum.. looks like the resignation letter may have been sent in by his wife...and a bunch of other stuff. What a mess. Good job Mr Luck. You went all in on the horse that couldn't even figure out to get in the gates let alone get out.

Bob Huggins to Sue?

What does Oliver Luck have to do with it?

Exactly. You know hop we sometimes say, boy, nothing surprises me anymore. Well, I honestly can't believe this turn of events. Thank God it isn't us.

The man behind the curtain. Remember when I said I would like to laugh in his face. Well, double that tonight.

NIL money - WV went bonkers this year spending ...and now look...

Him not going out like a man is soft

Puffy?

Breaking news and it is a stunner. The new Head coach has entered the portal. He was seen yelling, Get me out of here.

 

[baggerbob]

So absurd. Whether he "officially" resigned or not, he should not be the HC of WVU any longer.

He needs to be put in a detox program, and never be coaching anywhere again.

Or driving

Or driving

Cut the guy a break, He's just a Taylor Swift fan.

So just when you thought a coaching transition couldn’t get much more awkward than ours….

 

[EnviroSciGuy]

WFVU, man.

It's a hell of a place, believe you me!

Couldn’t be happening to a bigger tool than Oliver Luck. As far as Huggins, it’s just sad and pathetic, the man needs treatment badly

I read that he had “completed” rehab, and now thinks he’s ready to be reinstated because he says he never “resigned”. Pretty short rehab. crazy stuff.

According to his attorney the DUI will be resolved whatever that means. Not sure how blowing a .21 when behind the wheel is something you "resolve".

Huggy might not remember that.

He might not remember this, either.

So...who wrote the following?

MESSAGE FROM BOB HUGGINS TO THE WVU COMMUNITY

Mountaineer Nation:

Today, I have submitted a letter to President Gordon Gee and Vice President and Director of Athletics Wren Baker informing them of my resignation and intention to retire as head men’s basketball coach at West Virginia University effective immediately.

My recent actions do not represent the values of the University or the leadership expected in this role. While I have always tried to represent our University with honor, I have let all of you – and myself – down. I am solely responsible for my conduct and sincerely apologize to the University community – particularly to the student-athletes, coaches and staff in our program. I must do better, and I plan to spend the next few months focused on my health and my family so that I can be the person they deserve.

It has been the honor of my professional career to lead the men’s basketball program at my alma mater and I take great pride in our accomplishments. But I am most proud of the tremendous young men who chose to spend their formative years with us, and who have gone on to do great things with their lives.

I was born in Morgantown, graduated from West Virginia University and had the pleasure of coaching here for seventeen seasons as an assistant or head coach. It will always be my home, and I will always be a Mountaineer.

Thank you to everyone who has supported our program over the years. It has meant more to me and my family than you could ever know.

Sincerely,

Bob Huggins

Damn Jesse.. you sure picked a circus to join.

[hoopsupstate]

What’s the problem? Just fire him with cause and move on. He’s a drunk with no business being around a university.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

So just when you thought a coaching transition couldn’t get much more awkward than ours….

Hold my beer.

 

[Charbroil]

This whole saga would make an interesting 30 for 30 one day. Either way, unfortunate a HoF career comes to an end like this. Huggins clearly needs help.

 

[jgeorge322]

Even if Huggins never resigned, surely the university had cause to fire him. Not sure where he is going with this other than a money grab.
