A legal feud has erupted between disgraced college basketball coach Bob Huggins and West Virginia over whether he actually resigned from the school last month amid off-court controversies.
David A. Campbell, an attorney for the 69-year-old, sent a letter to West Virginia threatening to sue them on the coach's behalf, according to ESPN. He claimed Huggins did not formally resign and still intends to work for the program for the upcoming season. Campbell insisted it was Huggins' wife, June Huggins, who illegitimately told West Virginia he would step down.
"Regardless of WVU's reasons for reaching this point, WVU is faced with the following choices: (1) Reinstate Coach Huggins to his Head Basketball Coach position once the rehabilitation program is completed pursuant to the plain terms of the Employment Agreement; or (2) remain in breach of the Employment Agreement and face litigation," Campbell's letter reportedly said.
