Docked $1M, 3 game suspension, has to attend “sensitivity training” and they changed his contract to year-to-year instead of multi year.

Per the infamous clown Gordon Gee “We will never truly know the damage that has been done by the words said in those 90 seconds. Words matter and they can leave scars that can never be seen," Gee and vice president and director of West Virginia athletics Wren Baker said in a joint statement.

"But words can also heal. And by taking this moment to learn more about another's perspective, speak respectfully and lead with understanding, perhaps the words 'do better' will lead to meaningful change for all."

Too much? Too little? I suppose that is better than being unemployed.

This whole thing is dumb imo, but was kinda expecting him to get canned. So simultaneously I feel it's too much and less than I expected.

Oh shut the frick up Gordon Gee. I can tell you right now the damage done by Huggins words. frick all. Except for Huggins losing some $$ and some contract security. That’s it though. That’s all the damage done by his words.

Also has to make a donation to Xavier. Also that 1 million is going to a LGBTQ organization.

Huggins picked basically the best time ever to have a "scandal".

NBA and NHL playoffs are in full swing and nobody in the Mainstream press gives a shite about CBB outside if March anymore.

WV literally could ha E just said nothing and the story would have disappeared in a day.

“Yeah I’m glad I didn’t get fired but I do have to pay a fine which is kinda gay” - Bob Huggins in his next interview

A coach of any race would get punished for saying that on live radio in 2023

I say too much but like I said WVU is trying to cater to the crazies because of the image Hollywood and outsiders give the state.

Neal Brown should be buying Huggins a vacation because the WVU sports news should be about Brown being a shite house coach.
