Howard first shoved a finger right in his face. Later he through a punch. With a game with that wide of gap not sure why a timeout effected an outcome. Maybe the timeout was near the end and Howard felt he was dissed? The winning coach may have wanted to put some seniors in the game near the end of the season. If it was a dissed thing, the Big 10 needs to nip it in the bud.
Weird times we live in where “words are violence” and actual violence can be justified if the perpetrators are considered a member of a “victim class”. Fact is Juwan Howard threw a punch. He should be gone regardless the provocation.
Howard has a history of not being able to control his temper.
Yes, Howard felt the Wisconsin coach dissed Michigan by calling a timeout with only seconds remaining, although for some reason Howard had Michigan switch to a full-court press with only seconds remaining and down by 14. Regardless, that’s all just a smokescreen. Howard threw a punch. Is this the man UMich wants representing the university? You can bet that if Jim Harbaugh did something like this he’d be gone in a New York - or Ann Arbor - minute.
