Press Conference
Anyone know when the Press Conference for Coach Howard will be?
Brendan Quinn at the Athletic is reporting that it will be Thursday May 30th.
Thursday the 30th

MGOBLOG is better than google:)
Yes, they don’t track you...as much
Sounds like he'd rather win some recruits instead of a press conference.
Makes sense to me....
It's times like these that I am truly grateful for our sacred freedom of the press. I have no doubt that grizzly, weather-worn press veterans will with hold no punched in their quest for the truth - truth to power, and... inflammatory rhetoric injected into click-bate titles that bare little resemblance to the lack of substance within the article!
I hope we get to the bottom of any practices that last 30 minutes longer than NCAA rules!!!
They need time to dry clean and rehang the banners before the press conference.
I'm not sure if you are sharing info or you are being sarcastic about the date not being sooner.
I hope they think to invite legacy players like Cazzie Russell, Rudy T, etc.
What about Ant Wright?
Who is Ain’t wRight?
he's Ant Wrong
sarcasm? WD? ...nah
Man. I hate being a stickler, but it's really not hard to make a decent thread title.
Also, isn't the 30th kind of late? I realize he can get started on everything now with assistants and recruits, but I thought I remember press conferences being a couple days after the signings usually. I could be wrong.
I guess since we just hired a coach, most Michigan folks were smart enough to figure it out;) . Next time I will spell it out just for you.
We all knew who you were talking about, but not what. Were you asking when it would be or telling us? Did you have some other information about it or were you fishing for it?
It was a bad title. It was exactly like the one most cited as an example of a bad title to avoid, "Justin Feagin". No need to insult anyone for pointing it out.
I actually agree. I only clicked the thread link because I was completely unsure what the title was referring to, and actually had assumed that I missed the press conference or that this thread would be giving information on when it would be, etc. So, chalk me up as someone who wouldn’t call you a stickler, since I share your feelings
At least you can neg shitposts now.
"Next time I will spell it out just for you."
You say this sarcastically, but yeah, actually, you should. I was hoping you were letting us know when it is.
Yes, they usually come sooner. I'm not sure why we would prefer that in this case.
I think we can agree that putting together his staff and hitting the road recruiting are his top two priorities. We've already heard Jalen Wilson say he's expecting him to visit his house. He's got a lot of work to do and very little time to do it.
It will be a better press conference if he can introduce his assistants, rather than field a lot of questions about who they might be. If the new coach was an unpopular choice like Ed Cooley, he might need to hold his press conference right away. Winning over the fans and local media would be a priority. That's not a problem Juwan has to deal with.
I agree the assistants might have something to do with this as well. A couple days to let the guy sort out his staff is, if nothing else, courteous to the current assistants, rather than rushing a press conference. Probably moreso than the recruits and players though I'm sure he's gonna hit the ground running with that stuff today as well.
They may even be working to bring current/former players, current players families, and other around to show the stability and support for the coach from the Michigan basketball family. It's a little different sentiment when you're bringing back a former player as a head coach than just a dude who was right for the job but has no other connections. When Harbaugh was announced I believe they had former coaches, players, and Sarah and the kids there. Assume they'll do something similar
I'm terrified to start my own thread because i feel like it won't ever be good enough.
Hasn't stopped countless others from making threads with terrible titles and content. I've never made one myself but as far as I can discern, you should find a random tweet from the corners of the internet and position it as absolute fact, include as little information in the title as possible, upvote your own thread, argue vehemently with anyone who disagrees with you using personal attacks, and be sure to include religion and political tinges to your OP and any ensuing comments. Go nuts, fella, and have a good time out there!
Don't be, it's not hard. In fact there's an entire section in the FAQs on how to do it and as importantly, not to do it.
The OP obviously didn't bother to read it, created a shitty title and is mad people are calling him on it.
One tip. Unless your post is "Buckle Up" or "There are...", it probably needs more than 2 words. Hell, even a question mark would have made this one better.
He's probably going to Jaylen Wilson's house today. Meet with Yak, Saddi, and Haynes before the end of the week. Check in with Bajema, Zeb and Franz. Trust me, MgoBlog is happy there's another week of anticipation and speculation!
Turns out this is the quiet period for basketball recruiting. Juwan can meet recruits in person only on campus in Ann Arbor.
He has to explain that to Wilson and the other recruits. There's no limit on texting, facetiming or phone calls, just meeting in person. Not ideal, but at least it's easier on Juwan than doing a far flung whirlwind tour.
Next week
i wonder if the timing isn't only for recruits, but to allow for time for others that want to be at the presser?
When I'm goddamned good and ready!
Google. MGoBlue.com.
Shit Bing and AOL can give the answer to "Press Conference."
Clearly needs to get on site and learn the ropes. May be trying to lock up the staff and announce that at the same time. Plus, it is a holiday weekend so we will have to wait until next week.
