Do you think Ben Howland would be a good fit for them? After all wasn't he was in the mix after Buzz left.

I'd be shocked.

He was in the mix on Scoop, and he certainly put his name out there as a candidate, but I don't know how serious of an option he was for the administration.
I think the way things at ended at UCLA, combined with his lack of success at Mississippi State, would keep him from getting a look at G'Town unless they get really, really desperate.

No, for many reasons. I would be very surprised if they looked into Howland at all. If his name comes up at all, it's probably just an indicator he wants out of Starkville.

He certainly wanted to be in the mix

Interesting story on why floating the Mike Brey name may not be based in reality, but in what it actually signals to potential candidates.
