Phil Martelli, Howard Eisley and Saddi Washington have been by Juwan Howard’s side throughout his tenure as Michigan men’s basketball coach. And that’s not going to change for the foreseeable future.
The three assistant coaches have all signed deals that will keep Howard’s staff intact for the next two seasons, according to the memorandums of understanding that were obtained by The Detroit News through a Freedom of Information Act request.
All three contracts are three-year deals that went into effect on Nov. 1, 2021 and run through April 30, 2024. They superseded the previous employment agreements — two-year deals with a third-year option — that the trio signed in June 2019 that were set to expire on April 30.
