Michigan Report: Howard KO’d for Rest of Season

Juwan Howard’s outburst at the end of the Wisconsin game, which became physical, caused quite the reaction from Michigan’s faithful. Here is the fanbase’s reaction:



  • Juwan Suspended for Rest of Regular Season
  • So that amounts to 5 games, which I think is what most of us expected.
  • Allowing him back for the Big Ten Tournament is, uh, potentially problematic. Should be interesting.
  • I expected a postseason ban as well given this isn't the first time, the lack of remorse at the presser.
  • We as Michigan has to make sure this doesn't happen again, and I don't think 5 games or two weeks or whatever will convince anyone that.
  • I would have terminated him for cause. The prior episode with Maryland last year would have been his last chance in my book.
  • Has he came out and taken responsibility??
  • Gard and his assistants better get some penalty too, fuck that guy and his dirty playing players.
  • It might not be popular but I am going to say it. 5 games is a joke and if this had been the opposite or if it had been an Ohio State coach the same people defending this pathetic suspension would have been up in arms.
  • Seems reasonable to me.
  • This is fair and reasonable IMO.
  • It’s fair and Juwan should be pleased that he’s still employed. This is clearly strike two for him.
  • I'm looking forward to facing Wisconsin in the B1G tournament.
  • It's actually more than I thought UofM would do.
  • "Rest of Regular Season" sounds a lot worse than "Five Games". Five games is fair for what he did.
  • Rick Pitino received 5 games for a prostitution scandal involving recruits and people are saying Howard should be fired for grasping the head of an opposing coach after he was grabbed by their head coach. C’mon people!
  • Cool, now how much time does Gard and Wisconsin assistants get?
  • Some of y’all are too damn soft, don’t grab a man, also not knowing anything that was said. Fuck Wisconsin, I’m glad someone finally stood up to their Busch league shit
  • Fuck Wisconsin and their coaches. The dirty play comes from the top.
  • It should have been for the rest of the entire season, including any and all tournaments. Give him a chance to pause, reflect, and come back with a clear head and a renewed purpose next year.
  • Who gave out this punishment, the Big Ten or the Univ. of Michigan?
  • 40k fine for Juwan. Gard fined 10k. Neal gets one game, Williams and Diabate 1 game each. Nothing for Krabbenhoft or Chambliss, which is shameful.
  • Pretty egregious both from the conference and from Wisconsin.
  • I can not believe the Wisconsin assistant didn’t get at least one game.
  • Juwan also got the highest fine in B1G history at 40K.
  • Now how about that Wisconsin coach that put his hands on a player? We just gonna let that go?!
  • Krabbenhoft got nothing!?
  • Absolute disgrace.
  • None of this would’ve happened if the coaches were wearing suits like they used to. A lot more tempting to throw bows in ath leisure.
  • This was all about putting Juwan Howard in his place and teach him a lesson.
  • Seems reasonable. The rest of you calling for more are out of your minds.
  • Nothing for Krabbenhoft or Chambliss is a farce.
  • No suspension or punishment for that Borfendorfer guy from Wisconsin? or the assistant dude that tackled TWill?
  • That’s some bullshit.
  • Krabbenhoft getting nothing for putting his hands on T-Will is absolute shit.
  • If Ryan Day did that to Harbaugh, every person here would be losing their minds saying he needs to be fired.
  • Juwan is a total embarrassment.
  • There was no "punch". So let's stop that part. Does Gard get fired for grabbing Juwan in the first place or no? Is Gard an embarrassment?
  • Wisconsin is bullshit, thug crap from that fucking Davidson, and Gard touched Juwan first, but you still can't do that. Come on, man.
  • Suspended? He will either step down or be fired. Unfortunately I see no way that he can remain associated with the University of Michigan.
  • Gard started the whole thing by putting hands on Juwan in the handshake line. He grabbed his arm and wouldn't let him pass. None of this happens without Gard's pussy move.
  • 90% of the escalation goes to the 2 Wisconsin coaches.
  • What the fuck is the matter with you people that say Juwan should get a suspension?!?!?! He hit an opposing coach and instigated a brawl! He should be fired immediately. This is embarassing for the university. Unacceptable!
  • He'll get suspended but definitely not fired, mainly because, right or wrong, Michigan won't want to deal with the PR headache of firing a mostly successful minority head coach in this day and age. Doesn't matter if the firing would be deserved, just imagine the backlash it would get.
  • Fuck Greg Gard and piece of shit assistant coach chirping his ass off. Gard had no right to block Juwan’s path.
  • Pure instigation!
 
Let's be honest here. If this had been a white coach throwing a punch at a black assistant coach, he would have been fired immediately and the outrage would have been through the roof.

As stated, Howard has a reputation of doing this (3rd time). This shouldn't be a 5 game suspension and move on type of thing and trust me, I'm normally all for "run your mouth" guy being put in his place.
