Vote: Was Bob Huggins good for Cincinnati?


Few college basketball coaches, especially among those without a national title to their credit, were as synonymous with a program as Bob Huggins at the University of Cincinnati. But Huggins' tenure at the school appears to be at an end, whether he chooses to resign or forces the administration to fire him.

Taking over a program largely mired in mediocrity since the end of the Oscar Robertson era, Huggins lifted the Bearcats back to the upper echelon of college hoops. But Huggins also took chances, both on the players he recruited and in his own personal life. Ultimately, the consequences of those gambles, from his own off-court legal troubles to the program's abysmal graduation record, may have taken their toll.

So did Huggins lose his job because he lost control of his program, or because he lost too often in the early rounds of the NCAA Tournament? Vote on the coach's departure.
