Huggy is a scumbag but he can coach. And he isn't afraid to overhaul his roster if need be. And he has been to the final 4.
I agree he isn't the most desirable role model. But like you said, he can coach. He has been to the Final 4 twice with two different schools and even took Akron to the Big Dance. It is sad to see such talent wasted because of an addiction problem. Old timers will remember the problems Cam Henderson had and even Ellis Johnson got pulled over at Waverly, Ohio for a similar issue.
I will say it is sad that wvu officials didn't intercede with his problems years ago. It was well know among major wvu contributors that he has had a problem for years. One would think they would have got him into a rehab facility years ago.
