Syracuse men’s basketball: West Virginia’s mess doesn’t make a Jesse Edwards return likely

Over the weekend the West Virginia Mountaineers’ men’s basketball team was thrown into total flux. Syracuse Orange fans quickly pointed out some indirect implications back in the 315.

To recap, West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins was arrested and charged with driving under the influence on Friday in Pittsburgh. Huggins recorded a blood alcohol level of .210, more than twice the legal limit in Pennsylvania, while police found empty beer cans in his vehicle. Less than a day following reports of Huggins’ arrest on June 16 - just over a month after using a homophobic slur during a radio show in Cincinnati - Huggins resigned on Saturday as the West Virginia coach.
