Re: Huggins was a money machine

If he considers Huggins a "young great basketball coach" why wouldn't he have worked to keep him.

Just to follow-up, I saw an interview with Goin the other day where he indicated men's basketball was/is the signature program at UC, and he enjoyed working with Huggs, who he called 'a great basketball coach'....further indicated Huggs is young and will continue to add to his coaching accomplishments in the future.

  Subject: [UC Basketball] Huggins was a money machine


  Some people just don't realize how much money Huggins generated with a winning basketball program. Huggins meant millions to the athletic program. They bragged on Goin in today's paper about how he raised the athletic budget from 14 million to 25 million and he really had little to do with it. If it wasn't for Huggins and the money the basketball team brought in it wouldn't have happened. If Goin accomplished anything, it all came about by riding on Huggins back all the time he was here. The new AD doesn't have Huggins to ride on and with the money going south it's going to be a different story. He's got so many holes in the dike to plug I don't think he has enough fingers. Don
