The No. 25 jersey is going to stay in the Howard family.

Over the weekend, Jace Howard, the son of current Michigan head coach Juwan Howard, took to Twitter to reveal what his college jersey number will be when he hits the floor with the Wolverines. It’s the same number his father wore in Ann Arbor so many years ago.

Jace will be wearing the No. 25, carrying on the tradition.

“Blessed to wear the 25,” Jace wrote on Twitter. He also posted a picture of his father wearing the No. 25 in the maize and blue back when he was a member of the “Fab Five.”

Juwan Howard is entering his second season as the head coach of the Wolverines. Jace is a member of Michigan’s four-man 2020 recruiting class.
