If Lane Kiffin could send a message to Juwan Howard and Greg Gard, it would be, “Can’t we all just get along.”

The postgame altercation between Howard and Gard hardly brought on much laughter, as the Michigan head coach took a swing at a Wisconsin assistant. Now that the dust has settled, Kiffin has deemed it appropriate to weigh in,

Sunday evening, Kiffin fired off a tweet saying, “No need to hate your rival isn’t that right (Mike Leach)?”

Kiffin then posted a clip from 2020 of Leach snapping Kiffin’s mask against his face while attending a meeting at the Capitol building in Mississippi.

Kiffin has often provided some humorous moments on Twitter to de-escalate some of the toxicity seen on social media. Or, in this case, on the hardwood.

Wisconsin defeated Michigan 77-63 before the brouhaha took center stage at the Kohl Center on Sunday afternoon. There will undoubtedly be punishment coming because of the situation.
