Juwan Howard's conduct (your take)

[sportsjock]

I'm rather surprised someone didn't create a thread on the recent conduct by (coach) Juwan Howard and the subsequent melee.
By past instances, we knew he was a loose cannon at times.
Screaming expletives and throwing a punch during the handshake session, will probably result in his suspension the remainder of the season and most probably a probationary restriction.
Should he be fired?  No opinion, one way or other on that.
No doubt, he incited a mini-riot, that could have resulted in serious injury to players of both teams.

Go to the Ohio State thread, lots of conversation on there about it.

[sportsjock]

Thanks, wasn't expecting this to be an Ohio State thread. Good comments though.
If this was an Ohio State coach doing this thuggery, he would be gone, without a doubt.

I am a Michigan fan and I think he should be fired. How embarrassing.

It is a VERY sad day when we are discussing the idea of doing away with the sportsmanship act of shaking hands after a contest because of classless coach who has proven it multiple times.

fire him early. Fire him often. Same practice the way I vote

[sportsjock]

The sad thing is, the man has offered not a hint of an apology, for his actions.

[Willard Fillmore]

Yes, he was made to hint yesterday.

[Willard Fillmore]

There is NO way this will be the last ugly incident he's in, the man is not wired that way. Suppose there was a 3 strike and you're out admonishment by the U of M administration?

[sportsjock]

Will this ticking time bomb, be allowed to coach in the Big Ten Tournament? Michigan fans are surprisingly silent on their unwired coaches antics.

[Willard Fillmore]

We knew when his suspension was handed out that he would be coaching in all of their Big Ten Tournament games. As the suspension was just for the remainder of U of M's regular season games.
