Michigan men's basketball coach Juwan Howard has been accused of instilling a "culture of fear" by a former strength and conditioning coach.
Per Brendan Quinn and Katie Strang of The Athletic, the attorney for Jon Sanderson made the allegation on behalf of his client in an email to Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel on Dec. 11, 2023.
"There is a culture of fear within the MBB (men's basketball) program and concern for retaliation by Coach Howard that has prevented staff from coming forward earlier, but now it is time to address that abhorrent culture," attorney Steven Stapleton wrote.
