Juwan Howard suspended the rest of the regular season with a $40K fine. Greg Gard gets a 10K fine, no suspension. Michigan's Moussa Diabate and Terrance Williams II, and Jahcobi Neath of Wisconsin will be sitting out their team's next game. Won't be of much consequence in the Gophers game. Neath has scored a whopping 31 pts. and played 150 minutes all season. A minor bench player at best.

Thought it might cost Howard his job at 1st, but I guess not. He did get into it with Turgeon at BIG 10 Tourney last year too but that didn't get physical. I've seen many post-game lines where the coaches were upset with each other, but this was way over the top. Howard got the stiffer penalty as he should IMO but Gard didn't use the best judgement either as he should've seen how :angry2: Howard was & steered clear of him instead of putting his hands on him attempting to explain his side of it.  :pouty: :thumbs:

I thought Bucky got off pretty easy, probably too easy. Should've given Gard at least a one game suspension. I read the letter from the WI athletic dept. basically saying they did nothing wrong. This from the same outfit covering for Davison's antics the last 5 seasons.  :rolleyes: I read Howard's apology. See if he means it now.  :scratch:

Keegan got off to another fast start, 14 pts in < 8 minutes, then Frannie's oldest :scratch: came in & drained a couple quick 3's. Quickly up by 20 & the game was pretty much over. Hawks shot better, 43% from the field & deep, & won the TO battle too. We don't see Izzo's squad get beat like that very often :happy1: :cool:, so I had a couple extra. :toast: I hope they can keep it going. :cheerleader:

Fun to watch Izzo get a taste of his own medicine that's fer sure. Every time Sparty got within 10 pts., the Hawkeyes would put on a burst. Pretty unselfish play and nice to have the luxury of a deep bench.

Watched the Fuskers lose to Northwestern afterwards. The Fuskers have one guy worth a crap and the rest of the team, not so much. Freddie must be having second thoughts.

Gophers tonite against Bucky at 8 on BTN. Hopefully the Barn is rockin'. Don't forget to wear yer cup!  :coffee:

Yup, last minute flurry but just couldn't quite get over the hump at the end. Had Davis fouled out a few minutes earlier, might've been a different scenario. They did a pretty good job of keeping him bottled up on the offensive end. The very best thing about this game was we won't have to put up with Brad Davison's BS at The Barn anymore. Still remember watching him purposely trip & injure Nate Mason then sticking his leg out to cause Jordan Murphy to land awkwardly, the kind of play that wrecks ankles and knees. Good thing Murph kept his cool or they would've been picking up pieces of Brad Davison with a stick and a spoon. Good riddance!

Next up: Indiana at The Barn Sunday on ESPN2 @ 5 p.m.

 :crazy: game last night in Champaign, Oh St was down 15 early & led by 15 late but had to hang for the win. Hawks have the late game tonight in Lincoln & on FS1. This is no time for a letdown. :cheerleader:

I saw that IL got beat last nite when I was looking my phone this a.m. I know they were ahead at the half but just barely after coming out of the gate like a house afire. The Fuskers on their home turf is always dicey especially this time of year. They have nothing to lose. Luckily they are a really bad basketball team, even worse than the Gophers. 

As far as who in the Big 10 might have a chance of a run, Purdue & possibly IL, but all the teams at the top can and have had some off nights as IL just showed. WI if they can play their slow tempo but their Achilles heel has always been relying on too many big, slow white guys. The Gophers almost beat them so matched up against a team with a better inside game, more speed & a deeper bench, a longshot at best. I'd say look out for the Big 12.

 :scratch: Some depth inside & teams the get really good guard play usually do well in March. I think the top 5-6 teams in the BIG 10 have a good chance to win some games in the NCAA but I agree Purdue & Illinois probably have the best shot to advance the furthest.

Nice win for Frannie & the boys. The Fuskers gave them a tussle in the 1st half but looked like they were in control most of the 2nd half. Gotta admit I was flipping between that and Gopher hockey. Gophers took revenge on Bucky for the rude treatment the BB received the other nite. Big 5 - 0 win over the Bucking Fadgers. Take that Brad Davison! 😎

Actually it was about 1/2 way through the 2nd when they went on a 11-0 run with the help of 3 TOs before it was really in control. Perkins led the way with 20 pts & 5 others had double figures. Hawks had 7 guys play 20 minutes or more too. :cool: The only real difference in the box score is on FT line & on the offensive glass. Glad to get out of there with a win :happy1:, NW next on Monday @ Carver.

Yuppers, Notre Dame picks off Michigan so Gophers are outright Big 10 Champs. Gophers score 2 quick goals 21 seconds apart right after that final just to make damn sure.  :happy1:
