OT: Mich - UW Howard Actions

[muhoosier260]

I don't condone violence BUT you should never forget that Joe Krabbenhoft was a 5 star recruit, ranked 23rd in the country and never made even an All Big Ten team.

Still can't play defense apparently.

As I said ... Howard was worse.  He should be suspended for the rest of the year.

But, I still think Gard is a jag.

[IrwinFletcher]

Howard ghosted Gard at the handshake line.  Gard couldn't let it go and grabbed Howard and they started jawing at each other.

Petty end of the game stuff, but let it go after the game.  Really stupid.

Howard has a history of this and I am sure neither the University or The Big10-14 will do much.

Also a couple of MI players need to be suspended as well.

[tower912]

IMO, an appropriate suspension would be the rest of the regular season for Howard.   

[MU82]

I'd be shocked if Howard doesn't get suspended. It might not be enough for what the infraction warrants ... that we'll have to see ... but he'll be suspended.

All in all, though, none of those piles of shyte came out looking like "leaders."

[Herman Cain]

My guess is the most Howard will be suspended for is one game. Commissioner of the Big Ten is not going to go against Howard.

[forgetful]

Watched the end of the game.

Michigan is down 16 with .20 to go and Howard has them still pressing. Not wanting to be out-douched, Gard calls a time out with .04 in game. Howard responds in the handshake line by grabbing Gard by the shirt collar and taking a poke at Joe Krabbenhoff.

You tell me who is the bigger A-hole.

Actually Howard was content walking past Gard, and just said "I'll remember that crap." Gard then grabbed Howards arm, put his hand on Howard's chest to stop him/hold him, before Howard did anything.

Gard escalated all of it. No need to put his hands on the opposing coach there.

Also, good footage of Davison being a jackass at the end.

[The Sultan]

Yeah I don't think Gard did much wrong there compared to what Howard did.  The B10 and UM knows this, which is why UM has apologized and why he will be suspended.

[Billy Hoyle]

Gard calling a TO there was 100% justified. Howard was pressing down 14 with starters against walk ons. If you don't want the game extended, call off the dogs.

last second time outs are still a sore subject for Howard.

Howard was in the wrong for the slap. Krabbenhoft was in the wrong for grabbing a Michigan player and talking trash to Howard. Gard was wrong for putting his hands on the other coach and instigating everything downstream.

Howard should be suspended for a couple games. (I'd have given him a pass though if he had punched Davison...such a punchable person). But I'd also suspend Gard and Krabbenhoft. They were both out of line. You cannot/should not put your hands on another person especially in an angry/manner while yelling at them (Gard).

[The Sultan]

A suspension for Gard and Krabbenhoft would be ridiculous.  Which is why its not going to happen. 

[statnik]

It's also not the first time Howard's gotten into it with an opposing coaching staff in his short career.

[wadesworld]

If Juwan was going to punch someone for a timeout it probably should've been Chris Webber.

When will the B1G suspend Izzo for crimes against women? This was a walk in the park dust up in comparison.

Surprised Floppy didn't throw himself at the floor and pretend someone hit him.

Krabb definitely deserved that b-slap. Yupper.

[mileskishnish72]

Is the slap during the altercation a fireable offense?

A slap (even though that's what I thought it was at first look) it wasn't.

Better video - it's a punch. He should be gone, likely for season, maybe for good.

Chill on this thread Mrs Gard. You've made your views known

We have to wait three years to again care about women being abused.

Sorry you can't handle when people express their opinions.

The guy who physically hits someone over a game and unwritten rules. They are all assholes but God knows all assholes aren't the same size.

Rent free, eh?

[The Lens]

A dude took a swing at another dude.  It's not ideal but my lord are people overreacting. 

Suspend him for a few games and move on.
