Will be interesting. Howard needs to make a big splash in recruiting right away.

We really had no other option than Howard if you read through everything from Ross and think about it.

Ties to the Chicago area and Chicago area basketball are huge. Obviously he has Detroit/Michigan covered too. Even if recruits aren't familiar with him, most of their parents probably will be. This hire is all about recruiting for me. And let's be honest, there have been shitty coaches who have won it all with great recruits, but the inverse is much less common. Maybe we get lucky and Howard is a good/great coach too. Either way, he's obviously a good dude. I've never really heard anything bad about Juwan from anyone at any level.
