Howland was on ESPN Radio a while back when they were asking him about Stanford. Commentator basically said Stanford can't be any good, because they lost to Montana.
Howland basically didn't say much about Stanford, but had a lot to say about Montana and the BSC. He said he used to coach in the BSC, and it is a very under-rated conference. About Montana, he said "anyone who would voluntarily to up there and play Montana is crazy. They have a former NBA veteran in Krysko, who is doing all the right things." He went on to say that Montana was one of the next schools you would be hearing a lot about.
