She can have any couch she wants.
That's also not at all what she said. If you read it, she fully admits it was a mistake and many other things. A ridiculous take on what she said.Yikes, she’s not helping him at all.

Agree. My cousin died of opioid addiction in 2015. It doesn't make me an expert on addiction - far from it. But I can share what we learned from the experience. I do have empathy for the Huggins based on that experience. It's a horrible disease and it is easy to be in denial. We probably shouldn't have chalked up my cousin's injuries that enabled him to get access to opioids to "clumsiness" as long as we did. But at a certain point, you need to wake up and realize there is a problem that needs to be addressed. This should be it for the Huggins family. Getting drunk enough to have a .21 is NOT something that 90% of us do and he's darn lucky he didn't kill anyone. That's just continued enablement.It was paraphrasing but come on. The letter does him or her no benefit. I've seen what that level of intoxication can do. You wanna excuse someone or let them off some for a level that could kill others and himself? There is no semantics to argue around here. The university was right and she is wrong trying to find a way to say other things he has done offsets this. Also the 60 days in rehab offer is like offering to sit out the first two exhibition games of the season.
She's wrapping up an effort to show him as a victim with a lot of window dressing. It's bad.

No doubt. However, whether or not he or his family decide to use the label "alcoholic" seems unimportant. The fact that his decision could have easily led to the death of him or others makes the rest of her statement irrelevant. Two kids in my area were recently killed by a guy going the wrong way down a road with a 0.15 BAC. A 0.21 is way beyond a "mistake."She said that her dad is not an alcoholic. When his employer felt the need to hire a driver for him, it should have been a wake up call for him and his family that he has a problem with alcohol and yes he is an alcoholic.

I'll leave names out of it by I had a friend growing up (I'm an 80's kid) whose Dad kept 12 pack of beer behind the drivers seat and would polish off a couple on the 15 min. ride to the ski slopeI believe this was Huggins 3rd DWI in his lifetime. Enough said. That combined with his statements a few months ago, WVU had no other choice and I don't care what his daughter has to say. Alcohol problem aside, 3rd DWI? Serioulsy. He loaded up a cooler, filled it with beer and was driving all lover the GD place. 100% complete disregard for others well being.
Not a ton of gray area here, IMO.
If mark few got popped again I would expect him to lose his job as well.
Who exactly is saying Huggins is a great man?That’s learned behavior. I don’t want to hear anymore about how great a man Huggins is.
If a person refuses to accept that they have a problem with alcohol and that they are an alcoholic, they will keep drinking and keep putting themselves and others in harmful situations.
Huggy will keep drinking until he admits to himself that he has a problem with alcohol which is admitting that he is an alcoholic. Most people need to hit their "bottom" before they can admit that they have a problem. Some people never hit a bottom and don't care who they harm. Sad but true.
Bottom would be his ass sitting in a jail cell because he just ran over a bunch of kids. Huggy should consider himself extremely lucky that no one got hurt.If this isn't the bottom I don't want to find out what the bottom is.

After all these years of hardcore drinking, his liver has to be shot.If he got caught THIS time blowing a .21, how many other times has he driven blasted and NOT gotten caught?
