Its one thing to be the kid from the projects in Chicago and playing with a real edge and maybe crossing the line of physicality. But you are the dang head coach and leader of men of a prestigious academic institution going out there showing your players that's how you respond to adversity. And then no remorse or accountability, just playing the victim when he has called timeouts Appalling stuff, and stuff that should make it painfully clear he is not fit to be the head coach of this basketball team.

Some people like Colin Cowherd are saying he shouldn't lose his job, but it would be different if he was swinging at an opposing player. Umm...it sure looked like there were a bunch of players in that scrum that he could have ended up hitting due to his inexcusable actions.

If he does keep his job, which I assume he will, I feel like Michigan owes it to everyone to make it clear that one more strike and Howard is out. Why else should we trust that he isn't going to go out and do the exact same thing next season.

It's also one thing to be a kid in the hood protecting his own and another to be a multi millionaire. His excuses about growing up in the hood of Chicago is just dumb. Dude has more privileges than 99.9999% of the population in the world and he acts like a teenager.

There are lots of reasons why a coach would call a late timeout in a game that was already decided. Getting bench players in. Stopping play for a teaching moment. Setting up a play in game conditions for experience. Or, just to call a timeout because it is your right to do so.

Any coach should know this. The fact that a coach lets ego and hurt feelings overcome his need to be a leader for his players, program, and fans is concerning for him and his program.

Whatever punishment is meted out will not be a severe as the permanent punishment to this man’s reputation, and that of his program.

Thank the great stars shining over Illinois night skies that we have a coach who knows how to be emotional and still lead men the right way.

So apparently Michigan does not plan to fire Howard or they would not have passed it on to the Big 10. Unbelievable, anywhere else in the country if you hit or slap a coworker or anyone else while on the job you would be fired immediately even if both threw punches it didn't matter who started it, no exceptions.

Quote from a letter issued by the university: "An investigation has revealed that your interactions were inconsistent with promoting the dignity and reputation of the University of Michigan"

To former university president Mark Shitsell...

Apparently having a consensual affair is a big no-no at Meatchicken. Whacking another team's coach in the head means you call Kevin Warren and ask him to be the principal?

Also, I possibly spelled the former president's name wrong.

I have watched replay video's over 50 + times and still am at the point of Mr. Coward really deserving that title........

"" I'll remember that s**t " is the first words out of Coward's mouth .....
Gard does touch Coward and Coward says " Stop touching me " and follows that with him TOUCHING Gard ??....He then grabs a handful of Gard's pullover and proceeds to stick his finger in Gard's face saying " don't f'ing touch me "..........all heck breaks loose and then Coward sissy slaps Joe K. in a sucker slap hall of fame moment ...................

Anyway , it all breaks down from there ......But something i never noticed till later this morning was when the UW assistant coach Chambliss was thrown down behind the scorer's table that Mr. Coward ran over there to inflict some kind of damage again .......That shows intent on his part after the fact of slapping the UW coach Joe K..............I really wonder what else Coward would have done if his son hadn't grabbed him and started talking into his ear.......

Think about that .......Coward's son was the only reason his dad stopped being a punk.........His son !!!! .......................................

is that the kind of person you want leading your school's BB program ......Is that the kind of leader you want to entrust your son's formative years with ......is that the kind of role model you envision your child to emulate while being away from home...???

Juwan Coward is a major part of a major scandal in college BB history when he played at scUM..........How he ever got the job at scUM is beyond me......How he kept the job at scUM after the Turgeon embarrassment last year is beyond me .........If he is allowed to keep his job then that will be beyond me also...

I was raised in an era of compete as hard as you can legally and if you win then salute your opponents....if you lose then you still salute your opponents...

The only handshake line I would endorse now is the Little League one if they resume it after the covid scare's ...........

Funny that 11-12 year olds are the model for sportsmanship now ......And that is another thing beyond me ..........it really really is............................
