Over on the LA Times, it seems like every day appears a new article questioning whether Ben Howland will get fired at the end of this season. I admit that I really haven't followed hoops very closely in the last several years, but it seems to me that Howland and Stanford would be perfect for each other. My impression of Howland (please let me know if I'm wrong) is that he's a great, hard-nosed defense-minded coach (three Final Fours at UCLA) who has had some problems with unmotivated or thuggish players. With Stanford students being pretty motivated and respectful, it seems like the perfect place for Howland.
If I were Muir, I'd snatch up Howland in a second. Of course, if I were Muir, I'd also mandate that soccer games be played with two balls at a time to make the game more interesting. So i freely admit I don't know much about the current state of hoops. Anybody with more knowledge care to opine?
