Ty for fixing that.
December 11th, 2023 at 4:53 AM ^
.
did not & is not stepping down as HC. He is enthusiastically hoping to return Dec 16th. Juwan is literally recovering from OPEN HEART SURGERY done Sept on 15th. HAIL!!!!!
December 10th, 2023 at 11:19 PM ^
That’s an actual insider I’m very much inclined to believe over the vast majority of “insiders” who know (at a minimum) their bread is only buttered if they can convince everyone they know something the average fan doesn’t. Accuracy and facts be damned.
Edit to embed the actual tweet:
December 11th, 2023 at 5:33 AM ^
I’m disappointed.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:19 PM ^
Totally nothing if Jalen is doing damage control.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:23 PM ^
Totally something if not TOM BRADY suspects Jalen is doing damage control.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:29 PM ^
Whole situation feels like a mess.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:43 PM ^
Feelings aren't the best guide (all too often, they're the worst), especially right out of the gate on nothing more than a rumor. As we have seen over and over and over, outsiders can easily make a deceitful mess out of thin air...so best to just wait to see if anything is confirmed as true or not by sources that can even be trusted in the first place.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:47 PM ^
True. But any type of altercation between your HC and the strength coach of 10+ years seems bad. Basically the two pillars of the program.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:13 AM ^
"feels like a mess" ... "seems bad" ...
At best, this is a chicken little overreaction.
At worst, it's foxy loxy attempting to get chicken little to overreact.
EDIT: Sorry, but...I'm reading through all your comments on this and you sound very, very weirdly devoted to the conclusion that this should cause Juwan to be fired.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:24 AM ^
Wait til you learn what happens when Goosey Loosey and Cocky Locky join in!
December 11th, 2023 at 12:38 AM ^
You should to read Bo by Mitch Albom
Bo and his assistants would go at each other all the time
Woody and Bo would go at each other while Bo was an assistant for Woody.
Quit being such a big goddamn pussy
December 11th, 2023 at 7:14 AM ^
That was back in the dark ages when those things were okay.................
December 11th, 2023 at 7:37 AM ^
"Go at each other" doesn't always mean punching, slapping, or other physical actions. I'm sure with Bo and, probably Woody, it meant screaming and yelling.

Username fits. Stupid statement...
December 10th, 2023 at 11:30 PM ^
Twitter is the worst.
That is all.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:44 PM ^
Like a young man trying to #cancelalldelis because they wouldn't let him send back his soup.
December 11th, 2023 at 6:59 AM ^
Musk did one of those twitter space things with Vivek, Andrew Tate, and Alex Jones yesterday. Its not getting better
December 11th, 2023 at 8:52 AM ^
I heard the best part was when Vivek stepped into the restroom for a tinkle and left his mike turned on for the world to hear. It's like we learned nothing about mike control from the covid / WFH experiments.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:48 PM ^
It’s Juwover then. These are the type of things that any normal athletic department would frown upon and push him out over. Now or at the end of the season. This is the third incident we know of. You can’t have your HC getting into altercations with your strength coach of 10+ years. Can’t happen.
December 10th, 2023 at 11:58 PM ^
Firing a coach a verbal altercation? Have you ever met a coach? They have verbal altercations daily.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:00 AM ^
Third incident we know of. They don’t get into altercations with the strength coaches that are so bad they don’t travel with the team. That’s not normal.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:06 AM ^
The face grab has nothing to do with this situation, Michigan moved on. If it was physical then yes something may be warranted. Everything you are reading and getting worked up about is fake news that an altercation got physical.
I have legit concerns about the program, some of which are about the product on the court, a verbal altercation is not one them
December 11th, 2023 at 12:09 AM ^
It’s a pattern of behavior that is unbecoming of a basketball coach getting paid millions.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:31 AM ^
Wait til you hear about this guy named Pitino!
December 11th, 2023 at 1:10 AM ^
Coach K literally had verbal altercations with players, coaches, refs and anyone else in the tri-state area willing to listen…in every game…and it was on camera…for the whole world to see.
Next I’ll tell you about a little man named Izzo. Boy the things he has yelled at people!
December 11th, 2023 at 5:29 AM ^
posted this last week, but a buddy of mine was at an izzo/sparty hoops practice recently and said that it was basically non-stop screaming by izzo at every player, f-bombs all over, and harsh, to put it mildly. i'd make the guess that 90 minute screaming tirade by the midget, dwarfs any verbal 'altercation' that juwan might've had with our strength coach.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:08 AM ^
You don't fire coaches because they have arguments with other coaches. That's an asinine statement.
Also Juwan is the head coach. If there was a verbal confrontation Juwan is the boss so the other guy would go. That's how chain of command works.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:12 AM ^
Nothing to see here then. Just being looked into by the university. Normal coach behavior.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:34 AM ^
Coaches argue with other coaches mid-game…this is much ado about nothing. Juwan is the CEO of the basketball team. He has the authority to tell Sanderson to stay home and cool off.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:47 AM ^
University will recognize a pattern. This can’t happen.
1st incident - All Mark Turgeons fault. Not a problem. Totally normal behavior mid game.
2nd incident - Greg Gard stopped him in the handshake line. The Wisconsin asst must have said something. Suspension, put on zero tolerance.
3rd incident - altercation with extremely well respected strength coach of 10+ years. Highly doubtful it was Sanderson in the wrong.
December 11th, 2023 at 1:14 AM ^
Your assertions on “3rd incident” are ridiculous. Just because Sanderson is respected doesn’t make him right.
Ask many coaches and players and you will hear Juwan is highly respected. Does that make him right too?
December 11th, 2023 at 8:55 AM ^
Dude, I worked at Crisler in 1989-90 and saw one of the stars of the team get into it with the head coach and get sent home from practice so he could evaluate his future with the team. You're only hearing about this one because of the internet. It's quite common.
You seem like one of the people who would have been in the anti-RichRod faction who helped to torpedo his career here (not that he needed much help).
December 11th, 2023 at 7:21 PM ^
Lol. So we gave up on Rich Rod too soon?
December 11th, 2023 at 6:00 AM ^
Warde will not fire Howard for this. Warde seems to love Howard and will do everything possible to keep him here. Maybe someone can answer this for me, but was it even Warde that suspended Howard for his physical altercation with Wisconsin's head coach a couple years ago, or was it the B1G or NCAA?
December 11th, 2023 at 12:06 AM ^
Maybe a verbal yelling match with Sanderson.
I dare him to try that with S&C Coach Herbert.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:15 AM ^
Doesn’t mean he’s not getting fired
December 11th, 2023 at 12:21 AM ^
IF, you're "not" Tom Brady you'll find it impossible to say anything positive in your entire life!!!
December 11th, 2023 at 12:25 AM ^
We are 13-0 and going to destroy Bama Jan 1! I can be positive!
I just feel that basically the two pillars of your crumbling basketball program getting into an altercation that the university (not the AD) is looking into is bad.
December 11th, 2023 at 12:41 AM ^
Wow. I'll let you hold that L. Your basketball program??? Pauses, looks up, gotcha! You are a hater!
December 11th, 2023 at 12:47 AM ^
not A MICHIGAN FAN
December 11th, 2023 at 12:50 AM ^
Your as in from the perspective of the AD.
December 11th, 2023 at 7:29 AM ^
^^^ PERSEVERANCE ^^^
December 11th, 2023 at 12:48 AM ^
Yes. Juwan is not a good coach who has anger issues.
December 11th, 2023 at 8:56 AM ^
Those who know the least know it the loudest.
December 11th, 2023 at 9:02 AM ^
dunno. if you read his sentence as written, he says juwan's not a good coach, but the 'not' also then defines juwan as 'not' having an anger problem. he writes...you decide.
