Rumors surrounding Juwan's future as MBB head coach

Let me see. There are rumors on Twitter but cannot find links to those tweets?  Elon has really fucked up Twitter...sorry, X.

Never a dull moment with University of Michigan sports.

The rumor on the ON3 message board is that it was between Sanderson and Juwann and that it got started with Sanderson calling out Jace over missed rehab workouts. 

This was from a poster who seemed to have some connection to the program.  

He did not indicate there were punches thrown, but did refer to it as 'physical', which could mean a lot of things.

It’s unlikely that Juwan punched a staff member and then coached a game today. People who say “but Warde” are allowing a cartoonish dislike of Warde to interfere with their judgment. Warde has been passive at times, but not to that level, and notably not recently.

So to the question about what about Juwan, well, we need to apply the lessons of Beilein and Harbaugh, for whom retention and support in the face of message-board firing demands (I was opposed to the former and a loud pro-fire voice in the latter category) paid off handsomely.

If there’s no punch here, rumors like this are actively damaging to the program and should be regarded in a similar way to excessive rumors about the sign thing.

Can appreciate his contribution as a player and coach (the Big Ten title and near final four was fun) but it hasnt felt like anything has been building since. Think it would be best to move on at the end of the season regardless if this ends up true. 

Rumor: Juwan did something bad. 

MGoResponse: Fire Warde!

There's still time to give Jim veto power in his new contract for when Warde calls Ed Cooley again

What are, the rumors?

I am bummed that Juwan didn’t work out but you just can’t have violence as a feature of your personality and keep a job. In any profession really, you can’t be in leadership and punch competitors/colleagues in the face.

Another coaching search incoming.. joy

Someday, we will learn some basic media literacy, but not today.

Sports journalism is a joke and twitter just makes it 10 times worse. Everyone just running with rumors is ridiculous 

Ok lets say the altercation with Juwan and Sanderson are true and it happened on Friday. And let's say that its because Jace missed a session with Sanderson. Something tells me Sanderson had to do something to Jace if he wasn't with the team and Juwan was allowed to travel and still coach. It would have been real easy for the team to not let Juwan travel and attribute it to his health. 

Maybe he stole signs from Fran McCaffery?

If this is false maybe it's time to let go...of our "insiders".  If true...we'll they're still on probation but it's getting late, late, for Howard and this isn't OK.  Honestly, the Wisconsin staff is pure shit so fuck those guys. Today apparently was a nice road win but we all know this team isn't tournament-worthy and that isn't acceptable (2 years in a row).

Jalen Rose tweeted about a minute ago that Juwan did not and will not step down. Said Juwan is looking forward to returning to his position Dec. 16.

This is bullshit. Juwan had heart surgery recently, he's not punching anyone.

I think we've all been suckered by a Jom Bomb. Which makes it a pretty successful Jom Bomb, I guess.

This post SUCKS!!!

If the rumor about an altercation with a staffer is true, can we please fire him this time? Or is this total bullshit from insiders with a binder on OSU?

First I've seen of anything reported from a 'university official'.

Hmmm. This is al real weird 

Petitti will probably suspend Harbaugh for the semifinal because of this. But not until the team plane leaves for LA.

At any rate, it can't be as simple as the rumors out there. Howard would gone then. I just don't think he could punch an assistant and that would be OK. Even with Warde.

If this is remotely true, it’s time to find a new coach. At least they’ll have a long time to find a new one.
