What got the two coaches heated? Well, Howard left his starters in the game as they were losing by double digits with less than 15 seconds left in the game and they were trying to foul.
Howard and Gard looked fired up as they approached each other to shake hands at the end of the game.
There was some finger pointing and then Michigan players got in between the two hoping to calm the coaches down.
Howard then reached threw to throw a punch that just grazed a Wisconsin coach’s face.
Players from both teams then got in to it throwing punches at each other.
Other team coaches and officials were forced to get involved to stop the brawl from getting out of control.
It would not be surprising to see multiple suspensions being handed down from the NCAA regarding the punches thrown.
Here is what Howard had to say following the game:
