All here that shredded the Tom Allen hire due to lack of HC experience must really HATE the JH hire.
Right?
Right?
Juwan Howard Michigan Coach
- Thread starter edub72
- Start date
We don’t know anything about his successes yet but we know plenty about his failures.
Zeke was 25X Howard in all phases and he couldn't coach a lick either. Fraudy is spinning out of control
You need to sit a few threads out. Embarrassing yourself more than usual and that is saying something.
Not and keep his job after next season. That has been long established here by myself and other reasonable posters.
Wow. Surprising hire. If I were a UM fan, this hire would concern me. Lot of risk there.
Can we at least agree that you’re an idiot? I’m sure (not “Billy Donovan is in Bloomington 100%” sure, mind you
) nearly all the board will agree.
I like Howard a lot. He seems like a good guy. Therefore I wish him the best as long as it doesn't hurt IU.
I cant find the article I read a few days ago abt L.Jordan and Howard - but it was basically saying Michigan is able to be a very good basketball program regardless...
However they were seeking coaches that could with continue the integrity and character of Michigan basketball that Beilein had made the norm...and for that reason were focused on Jordan and Howard.
I wish I could find it - but the internet has obviously been flooded with Mich coach stories over the last few days.
I would think Howard would absolutely command respect from his players for what he has done at Mich and after.
I would think he has more set plays, Out of Bounds plays, and strategic situational sets and plays than most from his time in NBA.
I think he succeeds.

It’s not a matter of comprehension, at least on my part. You made an ignorant prediction and you’re trying to make excuses to cover up your lack of knowledge. It’s cowardly, especially when you demand a higher standard from others. You were wrong. Way wrong. Stop being a coward and just own it.
and by the way, that last paragraph includes 3 areas Archie has looked lost at. Out of bounds plays I hounded on him all season(Holtman and UL made him look foolish)...Romeo scores 14 in first half doesnt get a shot off til under 2min left (no set plays for your star), etc
i heard from a guy who retired from the business that howard is well thought of in the nba and already interviewed for a head coaching gig
The odds are greatly against him.
He doesn't even have NBA head coaching experience....hell any head coaching experience.
This was fan service.
If I was Michigan I'd be terrified.
As an IU fan I'm elated.
There is a trail of tears of ex all american players that have been awful head coaches. Hell Michigan went through it with Tommy Amaker. You would think that they would want to spend the big money on someone proven or at least the resident drama queen said they would.
I guess when Ed Cooley turns you down then you just say what the f, let's try something and see if it works.
Funny we don’t remember you hounding Archie over his inbound plays this year. Could be we realized long ago you actually don’t know shit about basketball...lol
exactly my thought. And I agree, I've always like Juwan. He was the meat-n-potatoes of the fab/fraud five. Hard working, good post moves, not a big showboater.
But yeah...how does he find success at UM...without causing us problems? After all, we are rivals in close proximity, in the same conference.
Tom Allen didn't play in the NFL, Tom Allen didn't play in the NCAA Championship game. His street cred with 5* and 4* HS recruits is not where Howard is. If IU hired Trent Green or another former Hoosier/NFL player, then it would be closer to the Howard hire. Howard was already a NBA Asst. Coach who was in line for a future NBA job. He has coaching experience, just not at the college level. Howard hire may turn out to be a good move, especially for recruiting, only time will tell.
And about Donovan. And when you said 1/2 way through the season that the wheels were in motion to fire Miller. And about most other things you say.
A few media outlets have reported that Stevens and Donovan weren't interested in the gig or turned AD Warde down. He must be a failure as AD, and that program is a washed-up bottom feeder that nobody good would want to coach at.
That's got to be the first time I've ever seen you use capitalization in any of your posts. Coach K must've been really good in order to get such recognition. Can we get some YouTube highlights?
That poster knows less about football than he does about basketball. He’s a non-IU troll. Ignore him.
IU fan all my life.
IU football needs serious help.
IU basketball will be back in time.
Possibly a great hire. Michigan can recruit at a very high level, both nationally and in the region. Talent can overcome many flaws. Howard can reunite the Fab 5 and create an atmosphere like nowhere else in the country. If Howard can manage the talent and keep it together, Michigan could dominate the conference for years to come.
How do you know he can recruit? He hasn't done it yet.
Who has he recruited that makes him a good recruiter?
I mean Danny Manning, Chris Mullen and Patrick Ewing are absolutely tearing it up.
I hope that Howard is the first guy to have to vacate seasons as a player and as a coach. That would be an interesting accomplishment.

Yes, it is - at least on your part.
Not surprising with that condition that you can't understand.
You’re the one who made the ridiculously uninformed prediction that you now are too cowardly to own. Blame yourself for the ignorance that the rest of us can see.
Funny how the worse the IU program gets...the more hate IU fans throw towards successful programs...
I think it may be at an all-time high currently.

I said that after the season. And yes, moves are being made behind the scenes. They’re quiet moves, but when certain people start talking...the pieces on the board start slowly moving. Believe me, not everyone is kicked back in their rocker loving what they’ve seen so far.
Like the moves Billy Donovan and his wife made when they went ultra-ninja and made a stealth appearance in Bloomington?
Yeah - I bet you've got "100% confidence" on this as well, right?
YDS
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
And that maniacal laughter is at the notion that you have any inside information at all.
