Bob Huggins Broke 7 Ribs, Not 4, in Hotel Room Fall
Filed under: West Virginia, Coaches
Bob Huggins’ fall in his Las Vegas hotel room Friday night did more damage than originally thought.
The coach broke seven ribs when he fell onto a coffee table late last week, not four as initially stated, West Virginia assistant Billy Hahn told ESPN’s Andy Katz.
Hahn said Huggins broke ribs “three through nine” when he lost his balance and fell, striking a coffee table. Hahn also told ESPN that Huggins would remain in Las Vegas until he began breathing comfortably. He had originally planned to fly out Saturday.
Huggins, 56, led the Mountaineers to the Final Four this season, the school’s first trip since 1959.
