HOLY SHIT. Royal Rumble in Madison.

I’ve seen the video a hundred times. He did try to get passed Gard, after he mouthed off to him. It’s a big court. Originally it looked like he was detouring and skipping line, then he got back in line. We’ve seen many coaches skip it. Why didn’t he? Because he wanted to mouth off and walk away.
Have you seen Pablo's video that I posted? It shows additional important footage.
 
Both programs behaved poorly. Sure, Howard was the star of the show. But, Wisconsin pulls this type of s*** all the time: it is no accident they were involved in this mess.
I wouldn’t argue that if you truly believe it but you can say that for almost any team I’m the nation based on some things said or pulled with other rivals.

I am just arguing that nobody (other than Neath) will be suspended from UW

Gard should have let him. One thing led to another and Juwan should be done at Michigan. But Gard played a role in the escalation and should be penalized accordingly.
 
Not if you listen to his press conference. He said he was provoked by Howard. And he fails to mention when he was “attempting” to explain to Howard that he grabbed his arm. My favorite is how the AD for Wisconsin references “clear video” showing the “incident”. Apparently the video didn’t capture the #GardGrab and escaped Gards memory. These guys are pathetic. Zero accountability. Gard claims to have called the timeout to save his reserves from having a turnover due to only having 4 seconds to get it across the timeline and not have a turnover. Said he just can’t put his players in that position. In fact, Gard goes as far to say it was actually the ref who mentioned to him the timeout. Howard should have gone after the ref. It’s clearly his fault. Grown men here folks. Zero accountability and honesty. Screw both of them. Gard is a putz.

And I loved the AD’s BS about the league standing for class. Has this clown ever watched his own team or is he just a hypocrite? When Davis walked over to the IU student section and waved and yelled Bye Bye it is fortunate there wasn’t an incident then.
 
Did someone let you know “drug” is an acceptable alternative to “dragged”, Mr Asshat? Or are you going to enlighten me with more English lessons?
Everyone has made it crystal clear that we’re no longer going to stand for your frontier gibberish.

I don’t want him to leave, I just want him to embrace literacy. We’re only as strong as our weakest link.
It wasn't a kidney stone. Please try and be a better example for your students. I doubt you are a math teacher.

Wow, a guy takes an afternoon off from sports to catch up on sleep and watch a Sidney Poitier film tribute and all hell breaks loose. Howard never struck me as a wise man he kind of has a look to him always did of being kind of clueless . Interesting I think BK was always a lot more in actual control of himself than people thought he was. He sure as hell didn't let his players act the fool on the court, he made up for it but really I could never see him doing that. At least he had his mask on at the start of it. Can anyone really imagine BK wearing a mask coaching? That would have been a really interesting thing to have seen.
 
As a teacher, I would have thought you'd have proof-read it before posting.

Your poor students.....
God you’re insufferable. Guess you don’t know the difference in writing on a stupid message board and working in your profession. You probably don’t know much about professionalism though, do you, Danny Boy? You’re probably as big a douche there as you are here.

Um what does math have to do with it, Jethro?
GD you are dense. I assume you teach English and aren't very good at it reading your posts.

Danny boy? Jethro? Douche? Wow you set a great example. I work around grown people and run my own business . Those who can do, those who can't teach

You’re a great example of teachers who failed you. But sorry I’m on a message board with a bunch of random people. I don’t need to set an example. And you talk about name calling? You contribute nothing but that. Constantly. Bringing your wc arguments over here for you and Danc is pathetic. But I expect it since you constantly slink under the bar. I apologize to the rest of the board for having to read these. And I’ll stop, but have no doubt you two will continue to denigrate and hurl your pathetic insults.

How dense are you? I specifically keep politics away from the Basketball board. This is an odd thread and you brought it here. Teachers that failed me? Because I think for myself vs what I'm sure you try and indoctrinate in the students that have the misfortune of your classes? You have no idea about me but you show us all who you are.

You realize he yelled pussies right after bye bye bye. That was a bit over the top.

Quit calling her a teacher! She is a house mother!
 
Gard grabbed him no doubt after some provocative words from Howard.

yes and he should be punished. but you don't throw a punch. what message does that send to your players and the students?

I know some players are "i'm glad a coach like Howard has my back!"

Again, CHILDISHNESS.

THe only reasons a grown man should get in a physical fight is if he is in combat or defending his house.family.

Everyone is failing to miss the true root cause. The big ten has allowed the dirty play and bs to escalate this year with no attempt to fix it. These 2 programs are the top of the spear.

The talking to the crowd, the rugby style play, the trash talking all is under the control of the refs, but they continue to allow it and it continues to grow out of control. This is the next step in why the Big gets butt kicked in Tournament when actual officials call the game.

Mich St isn't far off.... and honestly if Woody hadn't been able to reign in Stewart and Johnson, we'd be right in the mix.
 
or dog. You f with my dog I’ll cut your heart out with a spoon.

Exactly.

That scene needed a calming presence and Howard nearly went Ron Artest.

He should be gone.

But I won't be surprised if he isn't seeing as 1/3 of our country are impressed w such childish antics.

Not to mention somebody could get really hurt....

Enough w the dumb jock mentality in this country. Dumb jocks got that name for a reason. Not to be emulated.

I honestly wouldn’t have minded if Stew decked Brad. I actually kind of wanted him to. Stew is a player tho. I do believe like Nick Wright said this morning that the main 4 high level sports are not close to a normal work environment and emotions are on the verge of violence constantly. That is part of sports.

The coach, especially in college has to be the leader tho. It is totally understandable to me why players get into fights from time to time, part of the game. Obviously suspensions are always warranted. The coach has 0 business, ever. I think he sits for the year and has to take anger management classes.

Which he is entitled to do. If you see me acting up in a grocery (say not wearing a mask during the pandemic) and tell me, "hey, you need to stop that" and I walk up and grab your arm so that I can "explain" why you need to STFU, you are basically saying I have that right since you chose to talk to me.

If it would not be right in the grocery, it should not be right on the court. And Howard deserves his punishment but acting like Gard and Wisconsin were innocent bystanders here is just laughable. If Gard kept his hands off the other coach, they blow past each other and none of this happens.

Ya maybe. He could also use it to play defense and hit a few shots. It’s hard to justify extracurriculars in a losing effort.
