Beilein who?

Forever Huggins!

Bob Huggins wants to end his career and retire at his Alma Mater WVU.

Huggins just signed an 11- year extension and will be pulling in major buckets…. 1.5 Million a year! And he even signed it with that dreaded $4 million buyout.

“It’s a great day for myself and for my family. To be able to represent this great state is an honor,” Huggins said. “It’s great to be able to work in a place where you enjoy the people that you work with and you trust the people that you work with.”

This is fantastic news and I want to say congrats to all of those involved in this deal! Maybe this will destract the media from the “Masters-Degree-Gate” story that is stealing the WVU headlines lately.

Huggs seems very happy about it and can now get to the job at hand.. a National Championship.

“I’m excited that we’re able to go full steam into the future,” Huggins said. “We want to win a national championship. We want to go to the Final Four.”

I have a feeling we’ll all be buying tickets to the Final Four very very soon! LET’S GOOOOO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!
