Howard should be fired.
Michigan "Leaders and Best". Yeah right. Punks.

Yes I watched it and there should be some firing, HUGE FINES and some players gone. Completely unacceptable behavior and makes everyone involved look like a bunch of idiots.
I don't see how he keeps his job after that.

I could tell you how he keeps his job. Skin
He needs to be fired but they won't have the balls to do it.
He should be fired no questions asked.

He had a similar incident with Mark Turgeon, Maryland's HC, last year but was restrained.

I think you are right, but hope we are both wrong.
The arrogance in Ann Arbor runs deeper than anywhere, save Cambridge, New Haven, or Princeton.
I would have shot him in the face.
Or Columbus

Not knowing anything about any of the individuals in the incident I had to do some searching. So it appears that is the head coach at Michigan punching another coach on the opposing team ? Gotta wonder if there have not been some personal beefs with these two in the past and its just coming to a head? Anyways this guys got some reach to him. I would hate to have a street fight with him.

No one in Columbus or who graduated from Ohio State calls themselves "the Leaders and Best." Winningest college football program? That's what a Michigan Man will tell you, but let's compare to the other programs since the advent of the forward pass (and remove the wins over the Ann Arbor YMCA while we're at it). Jalen Rose today defending one of his Fab Five calling Michigan the most "storied program" in the Big Ten. That's arrogance too. Three big ten basketball titles since 1986. Three. And the Fab Five won nothing. One college basketball national championship. One. Indiana has five. One-half of a college football national championship since 1947.
The guy punched an opponent's assistant coach and then refused to apologize at the post-game presser, but spoke highly of those of his players who got involved in the brawl for "backing me up." In last year's Big Ten men's basketball tournament, he yelled at Mark Turgeon, Maryland's then-head coach yelling, "I'm going to f....ing kill you!" as he was being restrained from physically attacking him too. Not disciplined by the Leaders and Best.
Wisky's coach Greg Gard had pulled his starters and put in his scrubs up by 15 with only like 20 seconds to go. Juwan left his starters in and was full court pressing. Gard called timeout to reset the 10 second clock and talk to his players. That's what pissed off Howard, but he did the same thing last week against Ohio State, but didn't have a timeout to give and so got a technical (learned that from Chris Weber) to try and extend the game even though he was down 14 with 30 seconds to go. Chris Holtman, OSU's coach, didn't attack anyone on the Michigan staff.
Oh, Greg Gard touched him. Gard is over 50, with a paunch, bald, a little over six feet tall. Juwan Howard is 6' 9", former NBA player, probably 260 pounds. Yeah, Gard really intimidated him into a fight with Gard's assistant.

Well, 5 game suspension, man they really threw the book at him. Lol imagine if he would've been white and Wisconsin's coach would've been black. He would've been fired and thrown in jail for assault.

I'm sure it's a day and age thing, but Woody Hayes punched a Clemson player who had a helmet on at the end of the 1978 Gator Bowl. He was fired on the tarmac when the team arrived back at Columbus Rickenbacker Airport. 30 seasons, 5 national championships, Navy WWII veteran, military historian, OSU history professor. And that was right. Juwan Howard? Suspended for the rest of the regular season. Five games. #5 and #14, one game suspension. Greg Gard $10K fine. GMAB.
Leaders and Best LoL.
I agree that there are other arrogant schools and school representatives, but listing other schools' arrogance doesn't make THE Ohio State's arrogance any less arrogant.

Context Georgia fan. Context.
Great comments by MSU's coach on this:
www.air.tv
"We've already taught these poor 18-year-olds that when you're told to go to class and you don't like it, you can leave. We've already told these kids that if you're not happy, you can do something else. We've already told these kids that it's hard to hold them accountable," he asserted.
"And now we're going to tell them to not man up and walk down a line to someone who's kicked your butt and have enough class to shake their hand is utterly ridiculous. So if the president said it, I think he's full of it. If the best coach in America said it, I think … that gets me more than this incident," Izzo remarked.
"Not shaking hands, that's typical of our country right now," he noted. "Instead of solving the problem, let's make an excuse and let's see if we can just, instead of confronting and demanding that it changes, let's eliminate it so that we don't have those problems. Let's try to do that."

Was told you can't be a good winner until you can be a good looser, well he will never be a good coach or winner!
