The Big 12 Conference issued a public reprimand of West Virginia coach Bob Huggins on Thursday for his comments critical of the officiating after the Mountaineers' loss at Kansas on Saturday.
"There are proper channels within the Conference structure to handle officiating concerns," Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said in a statement. "Coach Huggins' public comments are contrary to the Conference's Sportsmanship standards."
Huggins, who was ejected for arguing with officials in the final seconds of Saturday's loss, pointed to the disparity in the teams' number of free throw attempts as the main source of his ire.
