Juwan with the Nets now
Just saw ($) news on MLive that Juwan has been hired as assistant coach by the NJ Nets.
Good for him, and thanks for his contributions to Michigan as player and coach.
Also, I'm not sure I knew his middle name is Antonio.

Underneath all the draft posts
Oops. Without my usual obsessive checking, I missed it. Sorry.

nice save

I'm a bad man.
BUT the other post didn't mention the BIG news: that his middle name is Antonio.
(Everyone knew that too? Well, downvote me and put me away wet.)

+1 for Antonio
April 27th, 2024 at 11:42 AM ^
Antonio was in his hello post from 1991.
Wishing Juwan well. He’s a great ambassador for Michigan - and fits better in the NBA than college.
I’ll always be a fan of his. Go Blue!
Ditto... Wished it would have gone better... Great Michigan Man!!! Go Blue!!
Can’t believe they hired him a second time
Geez, did they fire him and then rehire him in less than 24 hours since this was posted yesterday?
OP telling us he has a real job and can't read MGoBlog during the week without telling us telling us he has a real job and can't read MGoBlog during the week.
Let's call it a subtle inference.

The employment flex, when delivered subtly, can be a powerful flex.
April 27th, 2024 at 10:22 AM ^
Nah, no flex on employment. I was about as obsessively work-avoidant as usual. Just missed that one, and didn't see it in the news till today.
Welcome to my party Blue Vet!
At least yours was a month old and not an obvious news item.
Whoa Nellie!
Juwan?
Keith Jackson dead

WTF? Why does this ugly rumor continue to pop up?!
April 27th, 2024 at 10:09 AM ^
Lol. Beat me to it.
April 27th, 2024 at 11:16 AM ^
It's the reverse Mandela effect I think or something like that.
I saw Keith yesterday playing golf in northern Virginia.
April 27th, 2024 at 10:08 AM ^
Pfft. Please. I'm sure Keith is fine. Stop spreading these nasty rumors.
Good for him. It can be difficult to regroup emotionally after being fired from a job you love, but getting back into the NBA should accelerate that process. I wish him well.
April 27th, 2024 at 11:19 AM ^
Eh, this was quickly buried under draft updates, so I think we can forgive it.
Unless the board doesn't want to forgive it, of course. I guess that's what the voting function is for.
In any case, I wish him well, and I wish it could have worked out here.
April 27th, 2024 at 11:33 AM ^
Thank you. I wish it could have worked out for me too
What? . . . oh . . . you meant Juwan.
Joking aside, I mostly posted this (not-new) news so I could express my thanks to him.
Living in the past calling them the NJ Nets
Yikes, Juwan is going to be really, really busy!
