Oh boy… The Bob Huggins situation with West Virginia is getting even messier.
Let’s recap the situation up to this point. Back in mid-June, Huggins was arrested in Pittsburgh for driving under the influence of alcohol — his second DUI, the first coming in 2004 — after blowing a 0.210 on the breathalyzer, more than twice the legal limit. A day later, he released a statement announcing his resignation as head coach of West Virginia men’s basketball and his retirement from coaching.
His resignation immediately snowballed into an exodus of Mountaineer players to the transfer portal, one of whom, 6-foot-9 power forward Tre Mitchell, quickly found his way to Kentucky.
