I don't remember that...was that Sutton too?..I remember he had a bad fall on an escalator or something like that.

Age and maturity change the way we view things. I remember at the old HOT Coliseum,, with Arkansas in town, the Slow Break Club would get onto Sutton yelling "Relax Eddie. Pour yourself a drink". As a 13 year old I thought it was hilarious. Now, not so much.

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

If I'm Wren Baker, I make my first call to Grant McCasland. I'm almost certain the answer would be no, but I still make that call.

An NCAA official tells me that West Virginia's players now have a 30-day window to transfer following Bob Huggins' resignation.

After Bridges announcement that he's staying for next season, do we even have roster space for anyone else?

Not much, if any.

Jakus mentioned on a replacement list

I hope we don't kiss any more assistants any time soon. We still need some time to recover from the loss of Tang!

Jakus would be a huge blow to our guard pipeline.

Good lord eventually the Big 12 coaching ranks are going to be Snow Drew and the 12 Assistants.

I expect somebody to make a run at Bryce Drew. I just hope it is not a B12 team.

Never understand people with that kind of money ever getting a dui, take a friggin Uber

With that kind of money you probably have a cool car and don't want to be assaulted by 15 of whatever scent dispenser the uber driver has to cover up the smell of vomit and feces.

Sure beats jail and a tarnished reputation!

Not a cultural fit

Expected but hilarious response from Huggins daughter. Said he's not an alcoholic...and the beer cans were given to him to recycle.

I don't think Jacque helped her dad's cause with that one.

Huggins now claiming he never resigned and intends to step back into the head role at WVU. This is going to get ugly.

What a clown show. Bob Huggins needs to go the hell away. He's an embarassment to his university and is only making things worse.

Bob Huggins has been one PR disaster after another the past two months. He's damn lucky he wasn't fired before the DUI. And now, he won't even take a graceful exit to save his university, former assistants and players a load of unnecessary drama. The guy's a laughingstock.

The door was wide open for him to retire gracefully and gain sympathy. W T F is going on here.
