Gard definitely deserves a suspension for starting it. Inexcusable to grab someone cause he doesn’t want to talk to you. Howard deserves the longer suspension (possibly rest of the year) for escalating things by throwing the punch/ open hand slap. A coach just cannot do that.
I bet he gets a game, but he shouldn’t imo
 
Wisconsin has been asking for it. They are mouthy. Talk crap all the time. Like Davis saying we have TJD and not much else. They say little snippy snide stuff. The tug and pull players all year. The refs and the league let them get away with it. It’s bound to boil over. FU Wisconsin and Michigan.

Woody Hayes treatment?

I think Juwan Howard’s season is over. He might even be fired!

Hell, Woody Hayes was fired for hitting an opposing player wearing pads. And Woody was an old man half his size.

How does he not get fired? I don’t remember this ever happening in a game except for Woody Hayes and he was immediately fired. This is the second time he lost his temper at a coach, and this time actually hit him.
 
Howard needs to fall on his sword, take full responsibility for his actions and beg forgiveness.
Unless it’s that or he’s fired, no way he does it. He said in the presser he was essentially defending himself because Gard grabbed and provoked him. Yep. Natural reaction to be grabbed and then cause a brawl.

Maybe. I like Juwan more than most on here but this is the second incident he’s had and this was far worse than the first. Michigan is a school that seems to pride itself, at least publicly, on doing things “the right way.” I could see them moving on but Juwan being a former member of the Fab Five could complicate things. Perhaps he will be encouraged to look into opportunities in the NBA.

Thing is, if he just goes back to the locker room the story is about how boorishly Gard behaved.

I haven't seen a brawl like that in college maybe ever? All because of Howard and Guard.
The Kansas-Kansas St brawl a couple of years ago was worse, I think. A Kansas player thought he was in the WWE and tried to hit a K-State player with a chair.

He was mad Wisky called a timeout with 10 seconds left yet he was still pressing. Explain that logic. Brilliant
 
There will be zero ramifications for Wiscy. After last years incident with Maryland’s Turgeon, you wonder what course of action Michigan will take. This is not an isolated incident and legally an argument could be made is now. Pattern. Howard is in deep shit.
After watching it again, Gard will absolutely be suspended. And at least one Wiscy player. Probably be more than that for Wiscy but those two for sure. Biggest question is how severe will penalty be on Howard.
 
Guard grabbed him by the arm and then it went sideways. Just about the time you think it was gonna die down, Howard with a big open right hand over the top to bitch slap a wiscy assistant.

I don't know who the 2 meatchicken players in the rear center of that scrum were, but that kind of handspeed put belts on Leonard and Duran.
Oh my God he grabbed him by the arm? A bit dramatic, the wrestling matches in the BIG basketball league are far worse.

My humble opinion: (disclaimer: I don't like Wisconsin's coaching style... albeit Football or Basketball... because they tend to run up the score at the end of games... when the score is way out of bounds).
Wisconsin was up by 16-20 with 2 minutes left in the game. Wisconsin comes down with plenty of time on the 35 second shot clock and drives the lane to score. Then another time... Hepburn (or whatever his name is) puts up a 3 pointer and the crowd goes crazy and the Wisky players are high fiveing.

OK.... I know I know..... you continue to play the game.... but in my opinion is unsportsmanlike to PILE IT ON when the game is well within hand and time running out.

Wisconsin isn't winning any favors in the Conference and there very well could be another brawl in the BTT if they continue to pull the bush league play like today.

Again.... that's my opinion.... I know others will differ and that's what this board is all about.... Opinions.
Wow, hurt their poor feelings. Maybe Michigan should have played better? It's not like they were up 40. Everyone is so soft these days...

Yep all Wisconsin's fault.
 
I do my see how he couldn’t be. He’s lucky he did a pseudo slap / grab vs a punch.
Don't know if anyone noticed but after Gard pulled him by the arm, Howard rather aggressively shook him by his lapel. He seemed to briefly catch himself and let go. He came back with his less than "Fab" ear slap which started with a closed fist.

Yea its BS IMO too. wtf does wiscy think they are? They pulled sh!t in Assembly and got away with it. I thought we were gonna throw down with them for a minute. Dirty a$$ed shit. I know what Juwan did was wrong, but wiscy brings alot of this sh!t on themselves and play innocent.
