Seems like Xavier fans don't recall the "rubber penis" event. For a huge rivalry game, you'd expect that would be a huge part of the lore.

Either it was a small group that did it, and it wasn't widely noticed, or Huggy is entirely exaggerating for the sake of storytelling and to give himself an opportunity to throw a slur in about it.

I found this post in the thread to be interesting. The "whole arena is throwing rubber penises" and they were "this big" and a coach's wife "gathered all of them up and put them in her purse". That's either a mighty big purse or a bunch of really tiny dicks. :D

Oh the full story from Huggins is even more wild:

""They threw rubber penises at us. Not just the nuns, I mean the whole arena. The whole arena. That's the truth, now. They (the rubber penises) were about that big they were about that long. ... So they threw these rubber penises at us, and Nancy Peters, Coach Pete's (Dan Peters') wife, went around and gathered them all up and put 'em in her purse. and then she went to church the next day and went up and saw the priest and dumped them out ... and she says, this is what happens at your school. He said, 'They didn't do that. The nuns wouldn't do that. They wouldn't allow that.' She said, 'Well, where do you think they came from? You think I carry these around?'"

One dildo was thrown at a Bills game and it is still talked about. Yet enough to fill a purse were thrown at the Crosstown shootout and not one person remembers it.

I agree. Those things all happened before phones, but we remember them and they're part of the rivalry's story. Xavier fans seem to have zero memory of this.

Just makes it all the more odd that Huggy is bringing it up all these years later. Clearly it's something he's mulled over a lot. If I were an X fan, I'd be proud of how they're STILL rent-free in his head.
Read the thread. They ARE. :D

I agree that it's odd that Xavier fans don't seem to recall, but as someone else said in this thread, if it was only a few people during warm ups 25 years ago, it could easily escape internet recall.

It just seems equally weird that anyone would make that up about rivalry they haven't been part of in 2 decades.

I'm not suggesting he's making it up. It almost certainly did happen.

Bob has clearly exaggerated the story in his head though, and he's exaggerating it to tell a story about how X fans are just a bunch of big f*gs.

I don’t think it’s equally weird at all. Huggy’s story makes no sense and it started with the opening line. It’s classic Huggy believing ‘I can say whatever I want’ and have few laughs with good ‘ole boys about holding court at Cincy. Sad.

Interesting that he had to apologize to the LGBTQ community and Xavier but not Catholics or the Catholic Church.
He kind of did by talking about donating to the faith center. Plus, it’s not like his “apology” actually apologized to either group. It was just to the people he hurt. West Virginia’s statement mentions both the LGBT community and catholics

If I lost 25% of my salary it wouldn't change my life in any way. I obviously don't know Huggins personally but I bet his salary going from $4 million to $3 million has exactly the same impact on his life as if it went from $4 million to $5 million.

Sounds like your overpaid.:eek:;)

Again, if you think $1,000,000 fine isn't an inconvenience, I don't think you have a great grasp on reality.
Put this way based on 30+ years of starting a on the ground floor of a private company eventually turning into a a public fortune 500.

Had a pay cut Covid year due to decrease sales. Like 35%. It had no significant impact because i reaped the benefit from the previous 25 plus years

Believe it or not some people do reach a point where have accumulated enough cash that losing some money for a single year does not move the needle

I am working on the assumption Huggy has some really good financial advisors

There would have teeth in suspending him for non conference games and keep his salary.

Though I suspect WV had to pay lawyers and do other things other things so the million went towards that

In the end will agree to disagree

I wonder how much of the $1M went to Xavier?
