Bobby Huggins
Seth Davis has now quoted the rumor that KSR Radio broached almost six months ago, that Bob Huggins will be the next coach at South Florida. When Rob and I first talked about this on the show, many people said we were crazy, but it now looks to not only be a possibility, but a probability. And it makes a great deal of sense. South Florida has just entered the new look Big East. As their 0-14 record this season attests, they have to make major changes to flourish in the conference. Who better to do that than Huggins?
And for Huggy bear, South Florida is a great position. Take a program with no expectations in a HUGE recruiting base, in a major conference, that is willing to invest big bucks to get its athletic program in gear. Huggins will immediately make a splash, bringing OJ Mayo and Bill Walker to whatever school he takes over. He has the Miami recruiting base and the chance to stick it to his old Cincy bosses.
I dont know if Huggy bear has much of a tan, but I do know that the bars around South Florida have to be happy about this potential development.
