West Virginia Men's Basketball Head Coach Bob Huggins Arrested for DUI in Pittsburgh

West Virginia University head men's basketball coach Bob Huggins was arrested Friday night in Pittsburgh for driving under the influence.

According to Chris Anderson of 247Sports, the arrest report states that Huggins was in an SUV that was in the middle of the road and blocking traffic due to a flat tire. When police asked him to pull to the side of the road, they saw him having difficulty moving the vehicle, at which point they administered a field sobriety test, which Huggins failed.

The 69-year-old Huggins is set to enter his 17th season at WVU after previously serving as the head coach at Akron, Cincinnati and Kansas State.
