Juwan Howard Appreciation Thread
It is clear the love that exists between Coach Howard and his team.
And a member of the Fab Five has delivered a banner.
Thanks Coach. Everything about this program is a joy to behold right now. Next up, try to get 2 more banners.
Go Blue!
Give credit to the coaches. They prepared this team for a major bounce back, against a rival, after getting blown out the previous game.
Kudos the coaching staff.
Kudos to Coach Howard, his coaching staff, and the team they put together:

Wussy little glass of vodka there, Vlad.
Break out the whole bottle, we've got a championship to celebrate.
It's been refilled 19 times.
ONE FOR EACH W!
He's not toasting.
That's a wussy glass of poison for his dissidents.
I have so much respect for Juwan Howard.
Juwan left school early, but finished his degree anyway while playing his first year in the NBA, as a promise kept to his grandmother. Instead of NBA parties and drugs and girls, he got his degree.
That always impressed me. To the point that I was uncomfortable when he came here to coach. Because I would be crushed if it did not work out and he had to leave.
My concerns were unfounded.
+1 for keeping it real.
A couple of Mays ago, this board was on fire, and not in a good way, over the Juwan hire.

Is that whats you appreciates about him?
If you're gonna come you better come correct, and I suggest you let that one marinate
Gonna need you to take about ten to twenty percent off there, Squirrelly jaws.
First championship of many....and I’m referring to this year
He is the best this year-a most remarkable job-Coach of the Year...just the beginning.
Never thought we'd have a coach I love more than Beilein.
So damn lucky. So happy for Juwan. This is the dude that cried at his introductory press conference.
Coach of the Year
B1G Champs
His players love him
#1 recruiting class in the country
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"I felt like I was letting down my teammates (by leaving in 1994) because I didn't do what I came here to do. And that was to bring a championship to this university."
You've done it now, Juwan!
I'm so happy M won a championship in a revenue sport that I'm not only happy for Juan but I'm happy for Juwan too!!!

We are blessed. Revel in it!
Juwan. Now with a winning record against Izzo
Took only 2 years to get this:
I came here to win championships.
Thank you Coach Howard.
Tonight we saw one coach on the way out and one just getting started.
Fab Five’s first conference banner. It’s for the other four too!!!
This video has made me cry more than once. Miami Heat Championship - Juwan celebrates with Jalen Rose. This is our coach. All love.
Imagine when he wins the National Title for Michigan. It will happen. It will be another 30 for 30 Best story in all of basketball.
I'm not one for sap but it would be an incredible fucking story arc.
Wow.
I remember seeing this posted somewhere the day after they won but I don't think it hit me the way it does now. The "We did it Jay" and "I'm so happy for us" got me a little choked up. He seemed just as happy that he got a championship for his Fab Five brothers as he was for the Heat.
Juwan is unbelievable.
He delivered on a level of what we expected from Harbaugh.
This year was a valuable lesson. Humility. He goes out and he gets Martelli. The team shares the ball.
He has instituted an amazing culture.
And we have the number one recruiting class coming in next year.
This is going to be a fun ride.
I appreciate that this man who was ridiculed by some for crying at his announcement as coach has delivered an outright B1G championship season in just his second year as a head coach - notwithstanding the fact that this is one of the best B1G’s in the history of college hoops. He has done it with grace and class. We are so fortunate to have him. Hats off to a great one!
I don’t have the words nor the writing skill to do the man justice.
his genuine, great character is physically visible
how many whiskeys is the right number on a Thursday night after a B1G Championship?
Keep going until Friday morning, and then count them.
quite the philosophical question from a buhhdist. maybe the answer is 'all the whiskey'? or 'meta-whiskey'? consult baghvad gita and see.
A joy
Future generations shall speak his name with hushed whispers of awe
2021 B1G Champions.
I was optimistic about the hire; loved Juwan, but a first time HC is always an unknown...i think i said it was swinging for the fences at the time...and in his second year, Coach Howard wins the B1G! That's a helluva swing!
Can't ever take that away, so its fantastic that the kids, coaches and staff will always be part of a Championship team...one down, two to go.
B1G and National Coach of the Year. I don't think anyone else is close
National Coach of the Year in my book. A great M coach for many years!
I appreciate you Coach!
JUAN MARTELLI !!!
I’m sure this is a joke but I’m getting sick of seeing the Juwan doesn’t coach comments from the rest of the big ten. It’s pretty clear why they are saying it.
Also, anyone see any comments from Harbaugh?
When the search was on, Juwan was my pick. I knew, from his role recruiting the rest of the Fab Five that he would recruit better than Beilein. I had no idea just how great a CEO he would be once given the opportunity. So, so happy for him.
I was ten when the Fab Five came around. Juwan was my favorite back then, in large part owing to his infectious positivity. He played with joy and inspired it in others. So special what he’s doing, and he doesn’t even have the crazy recruits on-board yet. What a special person.
Tremendous job by coach Howard and the staff. They would not be denied tonight.
This season has been amazing - what a fun ride!
Keep it up, boys - on to madness!!!
Hail.
Incredible what he is doing! Go Blue!
Remember this on the few days that are not so bright.
This dude is a champion, smart, classy and Michigan.
Go Blue.
