the big ten suspending michigan head coach and fined him $40,000 for his role in the sunday post game altercation. after the game he explained a late time-out call made him upset. during a post game press conference he did not apologize. he said his actions and words were unacceptable. i speak a lot about being a michigan man and representing the university of michigan with class and pride. i did not do that nor did i set the right example in the right way for my student athletes. i will learn from my mistake and this mistake will never happen again. no excuses. the big ten fined howard $10,000 for violating the sportsmanship. three players given suspension. howard will be eligible to return when the big ten tournament begins on march 9th. college basketball last night, another ugly incident.
