Juwan Howard punches Wisky assistant coach after Michigan gets beat in basketball.

The timeout they are referring to was Wisconsin took a TO with 15 seconds left, having a 15 point lead.

Obv just sour apples from Howard but you have to think this will cost him his job.

Priceless!!

 

[mjpwooo]

Isn't this the second time Howard has gotten in a fight as HC?

 

[NoleAPath]

He deserves to be fired. Inexcusable and a poor role model for his players.

He tried to walk past the other coach and the coach basically stopped him like, no you're going talk to me now. That's what it looks like to me. I'm not trying to excuse the punch because he is a coach and a role model. However that should be taken into consideration before firing him.

That’s what I saw

Why? We can’t have college coaches acting like street hoodlums. It’s not like it was a self-defense situation, and there was AMPLE time to simply walk away.

Looks like Howard said something first to Wisky coach before putting on his mask. He actually threw a punch at someone else not the head coach.

 

[jgking83]

Can't do that. I'd be surprised if he isn't fired. At least suspended for a while.

Thank goodness for the safety protocols!

Woody Hayes was fired in 1978 for slugging a Clemson player on the sideline during a Gator Bowl game. He had been the HC for 28 years and delivered 5 National Championships and was fired the next day after the university president and the AD met. There was no investigation, there was no committee formed to look into it, there was no suspension without pay. Like this incident, it played out on national television and the coach's behavior was indefensible on every level. Gonna be interesting to see how differently this will be handled 44 years later.

Wisconsin coach put in back-ups (assuming some out of rotation guys). Michigan was pressing them, down 15 with a minute or so left. Wisconsin couldn’t get to half court under 10 seconds so the coach called a timeout. Howard got all butthurt that they called a timeout with such a lead, but if you’re pressing with the game out of reach like that, a timeout is more than fair.

Exactly. No reason to press at that point and if you do and do it effectively the other team may need to call a timeout. All fair and no reason to get bent over it.

The two head coaches apparently have a history. If Howard was pissed he should use it to motivate his team. Howard handled it about as poorly as one could. I imagine he will at least sit out for a while.

Woody Hayes had some previous incidents and allegedly had been warned by OSU's AD prior to the season that any further incidents would be the end of him as OSU's Head Coach. Hayes also refused to apologize.

Im not making excuses for him, but for the record it was a slap. Watch in slow motion. He slapped the side of his face and then closed his fist. Not sure if a slap gets punished less than a punch though.

Howard says some hit or grabbed him first. Either way he is going to get dinged.

Saw this elsewhere: “imagine a timeout causing problems for a Michigan team…”

It took me far too long to get that joke. 🤣 It has been a few years though and many lost brain cells in the process.

This incident also has some Michigan players throwing punches after Howard did. And this isn't the first issue with him.

 

[FSUDoles]

Five game suspension….

 

[seminoleed]

If he only got 5 games, he's a very lucky coach.

 

[ChiefWB]

5 games, $40k seems about right. Gard getting $10k fine makes it look like they are splitting the blame.
