Juwan Howard, Chris Holtmann give their sides of controversial flagrant on Zavier Simpson

The Michigan Wolverines and Ohio State Buckeyes were locked in battle on Tuesday night at Crisler Center with both teams looking for a rivalry win to cement their midseason turnarounds, but it was headlined by controversy at the end of the game, which was a 61-58 win for OSU.

With 33 seconds left in the game, Michigan point guard Zavier Simpson went for a layup and was fouled by Kyle Young of the Buckeyes, but as Simpson was falling to the floor, he grabbed onto Young’s jersey to brace his fall and ripped it as he hit the floor.
