[QUOTE="Cuyahoga Falls Eers_rivals, post: 131650367, member: 1759980"] Listen to this, WVU fans unhappy with Huggins: Texas Athletic Director Steve Patterson, after firing hugely successful football coach Mack Brown (259-132-1 lifetime record) in 2013, caused successful basketball coach Rick Barnes (1 losing season in 17 years at Texas; 123-72 lifetime) to leave in 2015 when Barnes refused to fire his assistant coaches. Enter Shaka Smart who came from Virginia Commonwealth. In 2 years Texas had its worst season since 1983 but is was Smart’s only losing season in 6 years at Texas. Now Smart is headed for Marquette and Texas has to recover from Steve Patterson shoving out Mack Brown and Rick Barnes, two of the best coaches in the business in football and basketball. Bob Huggins is one of six basketball coaches in history to win 900 games, has been in 9 Sweet Sixteens, 4 Elite Eights and 2 Final Fours and one of only two coaches in history to win 300 games at two different schools – 310-171 at WVU, where I consider him the best basketball coach in school history with Fred Schaus a close second. Now, what idiot would want to fire Huggins at WVU? And do what Steve Patterson did to dismantle Texas’ successes? [/QUOTE]
