West Virginia basketball coach Bob Huggins is expected to return to the sideline next season in the wake of using an anti-gay slur in a radio interview earlier this week, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.

The university decision is in the process of being completed Wednesday, and the details have yet to be finalized. Huggins has agreed to a million-dollar salary reduction, a significant suspension and sensitivity training.

Huggins, 69, is expected to sign the amended contract agreement on Wednesday, according to sources. Huggins' amended salary reduces what he makes from $4.2 million to $3.
