Bob Huggins was arrested for DUI in Pennsylvania — and his bosses at West Virginia University are already well aware of it.
The WVU men’s basketball HC was busted Friday night in Pittsburgh after cops observed a vehicle in the middle of a road with a flat tire — which turned into a suspicious scene for Pittsburgh PD after they say they saw Huggins struggling mightily to get his car to the side of the road.
Suspecting he might be intoxicated, the officers initiated field sobriety tests … which they say BH failed. At that point, they threw on the cuffs and hauled him to jail on suspicion of DUI.
WVU addressed his arrest, saying … “West Virginia University is aware of an incident last night involving Head Men’s Basketball Coach Bob Huggins, for which he was charged with Driving Under the Influence (DUI) in the City of Pittsburgh.”
They add, “We are gathering more information and will take appropriate action once the review is complete.” BTW, reports say the SUV he was driving was a lease … courtesy of West Virginia University.

Huggins got into some heat earlier this year for saying an anti-gay slur on the radio, and it hurt him professionally. Time will tell how this ends up affecting things on the job.
