Re: Huggins: Gone Fishin'

Maybe by the time Huggs is ready to comeback to coaching.  Zimpher will have moved on, or preferably fired and the new president will hire Huggs back after seeing how he was treated:).

  << What about Bob?

  Former Cincinnati Coach Bob Huggins has gone fishing, good buddy Bret Bearup said.

  Bearup, the former UK player turned high-stakes financial adviser, said Huggins planned to take a year off and recharge his coaching batteries.

  When the conversation turned to retirement, Huggins used to employ his signature dry humor and deadpan delivery and say he planned to live in Lexington once he hung up his whistle. Then he'd bug Tubby Smith for tickets to UK games.

  Don't look for Huggins to retire. Whatever his well-publicized transgressions, Huggins won famously at Cincinnati. As Larry Eustachy and Mike Price proved, there's always a market for a winner and there can be profitable second acts in coaching. >>
