Wojo: Michigan's Juwan Howard shoots for the stars, feels the sting

Detroit — While we wait for the real games to return, the crazy games continue. Not as entertaining, not as structured, just as unpredictable.

Juwan Howard just took his first full ride on the spinning wheel of high-stakes recruiting, and Michigan’s second-year coach probably woke up dizzy Tuesday. In the space of 12 hours, the Wolverines lost their two highest-rated targets ever — Joshua Christopher and Isaiah Todd. As the signing period begins today, Howard’s class fell from No. 4 in the national rankings to 13th, and whenever the next season begins, Michigan likely will be out of the top 10.
