What's next for West Virginia after Bob Huggins' resignation
After a six-week stretch that saw his status thrown into jeopardy on two occasions, the Bob Huggins era at West Virginia officially ended Saturday night when he released a statement saying he intended to resign and retire as the head coach of the Mountaineers.
Huggins ends his career in Morgantown with a complicated legacy. He played two seasons of college ball for West Virginia, then spent one season as a graduate assistant before returning 29 years later as the head coach of his alma mater. Huggins proceeded to guide the Mountaineers to the NCAA tournament 11 times in 16 seasons, going to the Sweet 16 on five occasions -- including a Final Four run in 2010.
