Texas Tech basketball: Bob Huggins’ criticism ironic; laughable

The fact that West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins is unhappy following his team’s 62-59 loss to the Texas Tech basketball team on Wednesday night is far from a surprise. But why the typically cantankerous future hall of fame inductee has his hackles up is somewhat odd.

Following the game, Tech posted to Twitter video of Chris Beard and his team celebrating and dancing in the visitors’ locker room after bringing home the program’s first ever win in Morgantown. Apparently, that upset Huggins’ sensibilities to the point that he took to the airwaves to voice his displeasure.

On the radio the next day, Huggins reportedly referred to the celebration as “classless” and “bad for our game”.
