MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The Big 12 conference has levied a $10,000 fine on West Virginia coach Bob Huggins and issued a public reprimand following Huggins’ comments on basketball officiating after Saturday’s game at Kansas.
“Coach Huggins’ comments following the West Virginia vs. Kansas basketball game violate the Big 12 Conference’s sportsmanship policy,” commissioner Bob Bowlsby said in an official league release. “Because this is Coach Huggins’ third such incident, a public reprimand and a fine of $10,000 is appropriate.”
Bowlsby did not specify the first two incidents or how long he’s been keeping a ledger tracking such incidents.
