COMMENTARY
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The Big 12 reprimanded Bob Huggins on Thursday, five days after West Virginia’s coach said “I’m pissed” about his team’s loss at Allen Fieldhouse in which Kansas enjoyed a now-infamous 35-2 edge in free-throws.
You might be wandering why conference commissioner Bob Bowlsby waited so long to publicly censure Huggins. After all, in the space between Huggins’ postgame comments and the league’s wrist-slap, the Mountaineers actually played and won another game, beating Baylor 71-60 on Tuesday night.
No doubt Bowlsby and Big 12 coordinator of officials Curtis Shaw needed time to review video.
