RE: Huggins Lunches with Nuggets GM

[Wedinger, Keith]

And what would this accomplish?  If Huggins has been direct with UC, his
players and his recruits (which I am sure he has), there is no reason at all
to make any such statements.  Cooling the fires started by the media IMHO
does not count as a valid reason.

I don't think Huggs is doing this to hold UC hostage at all.  I just think,
if he is not planning to leave UC, then he should avoid situations like this
that are going to put him in this type of controversial position. 

Mr. McCann stated, Huggins and UC has very close ties to the Denver
organization, AND they are looking to hire someone with NBA experience.

So, WHY can't Bob just come out and dispel all these rumors with a statement
saying he's not interested or is not interviewing for the job.  He always
beats around the bush on his comments.

As a PR professional Brian, wouldn't it just make sense for Bob to cover his
bases here with a clear cut no-nonsense statement like this.

(sorry for all the emails, slow day for me)
