Michigan Wolverines assistant Saddi Washington said Tuesday at Big Ten media day that there is 'no timetable' for the return of head coach Juwan Howard, who had heart surgery last month.
Associate head coach Phil Martelli has been the acting head coach with Howard sidelined, but Washington represented Michigan at Big Ten media day in Minneapolis on Tuesday. Washington said Howard is motivated to return following surgery last month to fix an aortic aneurysm and repair his aortic valve.
"I feel so grateful and blessed that this surgery was performed at University of Michigan Health," Howard said in a statement after the procedure."My wife, Jenine, and our family appreciate the world-class care that has been provided to us. Dr. Eagle, Dr. Patel, Dr. Chetcuti, and all of the staff at the Frankel Cardiovascular Center are so talented and performed like champions throughout this process.
"He's a very motivated individual to get back," Washington said Tuesday."There is no timetable. We want him back when he's ready. He's going to listen to his team of doctors. He's going to go through the process of working through his rehab and getting healthy. I know the competitive spirit that he is. We're just going to hold down the fort.
