Report: Michigan's Juwan Howard Suspended for Rest of Regular Season for Fight

The University of Michigan has suspended men's basketball head coach Juwan Howard for the remainder of the regular season due to his role in the skirmish following Sunday's 77-63 loss to Wisconsin.

Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports broke the news Monday on Howard and Michigan, which has five regular-season games left before the Big Ten Tournament.

Howard and Wisconsin head coach Greg Gard started yelling at each other before players and assistants came to separate them. It was then that Howard reached across and physically struck Wisconsin assistant Joe Krabbenhoft.

That escalated the tension and led to a scrum with players pushing each other.
