Michigan Coach Juwan Howard Ejected After Heated Exchange During Big Ten Tournament

The Big Ten tournament got heated on Friday afternoon as Michigan head coach Juwan Howard had to be restrained by the coaching staff and players before he was ejected by officials.

The Wolverines and Maryland were headed into a timeout when Howard became visibly upset halfway through the second half. He exchanged words with Terrapins head coach Mark Turgeon. The jawing escalated, causing staff members and players to step in and separate the two.

Darryl Morsell found himself in the vocal exchange, the announcers said in the live broadcast.

Even as the officials' whistles blew, the assistants still had to keep pushing Howard back.
