I don't have a dog in this fight. What I will say simply is any coach who has ever put his hands on a player or another coach has been terminated. Pretty simply put, almost immediately! There is no room in the college game for this. you do not even see it in the professional ranks he needs terminated and terminated immediately! that's my two cents take it for what you will. Sad day for something called a College Game...
100% Agree.

I take great satisfaction in knowing that nothing remotely like this scenario would ever happen with coach Underwood.
The thought of reacting physically would not live in our coach's mind for a millisecond.

I think the difference in the character of the two men is profound.

Gard also should be apologetic for acting like a toddler in that situation. Forget any of the basketball stuff, be the bigger person in the handshake line.

Did Krabbenhoft even do anything? It didn't look like it to me, but what else could Howard have been reacting to?
In one of the videos it appears the assistant from Wisconsin was clearly antagonizing Howard after the initial handshake incident.

Saying something along the lines of “shut the eff up” toward Howard. Definitely warrants punishment to the asst. coach and probably something minor for Gard.

If Howard had not told his players to full-court press, if Gard hard not called a timeout to fire back at that press, none of this happens. "Code of the game" or some nonsense wasn't adhered to in this situation, so both coaches got into their feelings.

In college, you're allowed to call a timeout and have the 10-second clock reset to get the ball past the midcourt timeline. Gard said that's why he made the call -- to offset the press and reset the clock. It's in Howard's right to press, and it's in Gard's right to call a timeout to counteract the immediate effects of that press.

The score of the damn game was 76-61, and there was less than 20 seconds remaining. What the hell are we doing here?

I don't have all the evidence about what was being said and done as the game wound down, etc., so I'm not gonna make any judgment about what should happen here. But looking back at history, remember what happened the last time a SCUM basketball coach was told to leave right before the NCAA tourney began? I do, and I don't want that nightmare happening ever again. o_O With that said, I just don't know how you justify keeping him on as coach. He's lucky he's not spending the night in jail.

My expectations. Season suspension for Howard. 5 games for the 2 Mich players and 5 Games for number 0 on Wis. 1 game for Gard. What will actually happen probably 3 games for Howard 1 for the players and 0 for GG. Very curious to see how this plays out.
Honest question, what did Gard do? I’ve watched the video but I still don’t see a lot of fault there (unless he said something or did something in the melee.)

I hope so too. Belein is 69 years old at this point, so I wonder if he would want to step in. On the other hand, per Wikipedia, he is still involved with Michigan. "In Fall 2020, Beilein taught a course at Michigan titled "Coaching as Leading and Leading as Coaching" in the School of Education.[245] He repeated teaching the course in Spring 2021." Come to think of it, if the course is offered again, maybe JH should sign up!
We DoNot want to see Coach Belein! I agree because coach beilein is one of the best tacticians on the planet! Doesn't mean I like him or dislike him. the man can coach the crap out of his players.woof, "89" all over again. Big differences they don't have a Bo Schembechler to come in and brutalize the basketball team, about their coach going to Arizona State!! Steve Fisher an assistant coach there is no coach Schembechler anymore those men are missing in this world. If he were still alive Harbaugh wouldn't be the coach at that school right now!

Remember… Alan Griffin got a 2 game suspension for stepping on a player. To me, this is at least twice as bad. He is the paid professional. He started a melee. At minimum I think 4-5 games would be appropriate and there is serious question over him keeping his job. Now, does our big ten commish have the guts? Or does he only drop the hammer on Illinois players?

Haji from MGOBLOG:

"Juwan will be gone. T-Will will not play this year at least. Moussa will not play this year and then try to go pro. Brooks, Hunter. and Jones are gone. Houstan will probably not play this year and then transfer because Juwan is gone and also he will look at the team and see there is not much left to try to build his game.

Juwan blew the whole team up with this disgrace. I'm pissed at him. You should be too. He just set the program back a few years.

Wisconsin guys I don't care but they will get time too."

I think Howard is lucky here. He’s a former elite level athlete who I’m sure still has works out and appears to be in solid shape.

But, he’s also older now. He’s lucky some random strong giant off Wisconsin’s roster didn’t make a run at him and try to bring him to the ground and pummel him.
