🏀 Michigan has fired Juwan Howard.

Better college coach of these 3 for NBA stars? Howard, Stackhouse, or Penny? 2 have been fired this week. I'd take Stackhouse over the other 2 though.

I don't think he helped Howard in the least.

Is that the Michigan version of Touchdown Alabama?

Why must it always be about race? How about he “wasn’t worth a shit as a coach!”
My uncle ran into a similar issue in the mid 80’s. He replaced a black coach at Banks HS who had won 7 games in 3 seasons as its basketball coach. My uncle had been the B team coach. My uncle proceeded to take over and win 3 consecutive area championships and average 24 wins a season. At the end of his 3rd season, the guy he replaced filed a suit against the BOE claiming discrimination. The BOE caved and relieved my uncle of his duties.

I can't remember which school or which coach; it happened in the Big East last night.

The coach was told he was trending on "Black Twitter" and then was asked about his marital status. It was a big win for the team. And this was in the post-game presser?

My only answer? They are REALLY bad at their job(s.)

Michigan is reportedly targeting Oats. I hope Byrne ponies up.

Stackhouse will land somewhere. Howard will go to NBA. Penny is likely to go back to HS coaching should he get fired.

No, they're not. This has been touched by Brandon several times.

Reddit got me. Looks like the post was taken down.

At some point I'm going to look at overall winning percentages. I wonder how Avery compares to this group.

I suspect Avery is the best of the group especially if you include his NBA record.

Howard was not a good college coach, even at his alma mater, UM. He will be back in the NBA this next season as an assistant.
I hate it that Stackhouse was canned at Vanderbilt. IMO, he is a good coach but had problems getting the type of players needed at an academics first school. Injuries to players also played a role in his won/lost record. I wish him well.
Hardaway has good talent but does not do much with it IMO.
