Michigan Basketball: 3 reasons why Ed Cooley is a serious candidate

When it comes to the Michigan basketball head coaching search, a lot of fans have focused in on former Wolverines star Juwan Howard and rightfully so.

There are many reasons why Howard feels like the perfect fit as the head coach of Michigan basketball. For starters, he was one of the greatest Wolverines ever.

Howard was part of the famed Fab Five and helped Michigan reach the national championship game twice, as well as the Elite 8 as a junior following the departure of Chris Webber. He averaged over 20 points and eight rebounds that season.
