The Big Ten Conference has now officially announced penalties for Juwan Howard, Greg Gard and others after yesterday’s postgame scuffle.
Michigan had previously announced Howard would be suspended five games for his role, which most notably included swinging at Wisconsin assistant coach Joe Krabbenhoft. Howard will also be fined $40,000, per the Big Ten.
That fine is the largest in conference history, per Stadium’s Jeff Goodman.
Juwan Howard will be suspended for the last five games of the regular season without pay (130K), and will also receive a 40K fine from the league — the largest in Big Ten history, source told @Stadium.

As for Gard, he avoided a suspension, but got hit in his wallet. The Badgers head coach received a $10,000 fine.
Additionally, Michigan players Terrance Williams II and Moussa Diabate, along with Wisconsin’s Jahcobi Neath, will all be suspended one game effective immediately.
