The Controversial Legacy of Bob Huggins in West Virginia Basketball
TL;DR Summary
Bob Huggins, the head coach of West Virginia men’s basketball, resigned after being arrested and charged with driving under the influence. This came just over a month after he twice used an anti-gay slur in a live interview with a Cincinnati radio station, and nearly two decades after a 2004 DUI that precipitated Huggins’ similarly ignominious ouster as coach of the Cincinnati Bearcats. Huggins' proclivity for alcohol and profane language have long been part of the Huggins folklore.
