Huggins Demands Reinstatement Threatens To Sue

[orangefog]

I think this is all about cash. If he gets the $5m to go away - and the lawyer gets $1m - everyone wins.
Except Jesse.

Absolutely him sobering up and realizing how much money he is throwing away. A desperate attempt at grabbing some of that money.

Yup.

No shame and a last grab for a fistful...

Yeah saw this yesterday.. yikes

Take that, bitches.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Ok Bob: you’re fired, with cause.

 

[Cheriehoop]

So he's saying the school wrote his resignation statement and he never endorsed/signed-off on it.

WOW



I mean, he isn't getting his job back... so what, is he just pining for some extra $$$ to go away??

Bet one of his other 2 lawyers did it on his behalf supposedly. I figured that WVU not having any one on one contact with him and an emailed signature from his wife’s account could be his supposed far out technicality. Funny how his talk with the players really differs from what others said happened too. They allowed him to “resign” instead of firing him - ouch, that will teach them.

I sincerely hope Jesse's NIL offers were officially signed, notarized or medallion guaranteed by their respective sponsors.

Yup. Not a lawyer but alcoholism is a covered disability no? He’s claiming he went to rehab first and is getting treatment. And is being fired for a protected condition (I assume Supreme Court hasn’t gotten rid of that condition yet but perhaps I’m wrong).

I’m sure a lawyer convinced him they had a case for negotiating more money.

 

[hoopsupstate]

If he didn’t resign, why did he tell his players he wasn’t coaching anymore? He also sent out a letter to fans that he thanked for their support through the years. He’s a drunken idiot that just needs to go away.

He should just blame a dispensary and claim he simply ate some of what Dion provided him (and they were delicious - berrylicious flavor). He wasn't in a right frame of mind. I mean let's get it right, nothing keeps Huggie down, not even 16 beers. It's the edibles fault!

My last post for this evening. I went a bit strong on the edibles tonight. A bad day that's just about to get good.

He drove drunk. Being drunk isn’t against the law, unless it becomes disorderly. But drunk driving is against the law and kills thousands of people every year.

And most coaches get a car as part of their contract so I'm guessing there is some liability exposure to WVU when he engages in such behavior.

Not being a lawyer - but having done cyber compliance work for the feds and local law enforcement - okay WVU caves, and he and his wife end up in jail. Interstate wire fraud and a shoot ton of other stuff.
Good riddance.

Wait… did UGA case call? Do I need to cross post in the other thread?

 

[atlanticuse]

Newfound respect for WVU.

My biggest issue with this outfit is that the pants are too long.

Same…why God why?

How is it wire fraud? Any communication they had does not appear to have intent to defraud (at least not when they made them)

Who would’ve thought there’d be a worse exit than JB’s this year

This whole saga makes that little hiccup at the end of the Boeheim era seem like absolutely nothing.

You’re a spurious litigation

You stole my bit.

If it makes you feel better you won’t be the last.
