Juwan Howard to be named new Michigan basketball coach

[JohnnyMac]

Mi mailed it in tonight , a look ahead I guess to MI State on Thursday and Sunday

OK, Michael, as a Michigan resident and a long-time follower of this thread, you have shown yourself as a true savant with predicting the outcome of Michigan v Michigan State games.

Its Michigan -7.5

What is the bet?!?!?

Like to see a BE tournament run and grab a 7 or better.. 300/1 bro !

I'm most concerned about their first game in the BET. A young / inexperienced team playing an upperclass laden and desperate PC team who will be playing their second game of the tournament. If they get by PC, they're winning the BET

And they'll be a 4 or 5 seed, absolutely no worse than a 6

This Howard sucks :howdy:

Martelli is the one actually coaching the team..Give him the raise.. Howard is pretty much a figure head , that brings in the talent..If they keep their current rolls , they might just have a chance... My guess , Howard's ego will get the best of him in the tournament .

Juwan Howard, not Phil Martelli, named B1G Ten Coach of the year:

Juwan Howard led Michigan to a Big Ten title last week. On Tuesday, he was named the conference’s Coach of the Year.
Howard, in just his second season as head coach, became the first Michigan coach to claim the award since John Beilein in 2014. Two other Michigan coaches, Johnny Orr (twice) and Bill Frieder, have won the honor, awarded since 1974.
Michigan, predicted before the season to finish in the middle of the Big Ten, went 14-3 in conference, the best winning percentage in the league. As a result, the Wolverines were named Big Ten regular-season champions for the first time since 2014 and will be the No. 1 seed in this week’s conference tournament.

“I always told our guys: 'I want to earn your trust.' I think they got the chance to get to know me, see how I ran a practice, how passionate I am about teaching and what I had to offer as far as my experience in the basketball world and my knowledge for the game,” Howard told SN. “I think I earned their trust from that. The buy-in has been easy on both levels: players with coaches, coaches with players.”

Hopefully our Huskies have done enough to stay out of that 8-9 game.. I was hoping to get to a 6. Settle for a 7 seed . My Ducks might be a 7 also with their unexpected loss tonight

 

[Willie99]

I like Howard's fire, I like the way his team is playing, I have said repeatedly he's doing a good job, but he sounded like an asshole in his post game meeting with the press yesterday

 

[slapshot]

Terrible last possession and has a TO in his pocket hno:


that wasn’t coach of the year material

Definitely, the Madness and post season is a major hurdle for any rookie HC or manager. The lack of any experience is a hindrance.

 

[JohnnyMac]

One down, five to go.

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

Howard between a rock and a hard place...he will get no love unless his team is in the final four....

Howard between a rock and a hard place...he will get no love unless his team is in the final four....

A rock and a hard place? He has a #1 seed team. His team should be in the Final 4.

Not really any different from the other coaches of #1 seeded teams. What puts him between a rock and a hard place? The color of his skin?
