Former SUU coach hired by Montana

Congrats Coach | 7:54 a.m. July 11, 2008

I am happy for Coach Evans to be coaching again. He is a good coach and will do good things for the Montana program.

I don't blame SUU for not renewing his contract. The program had really plateaued and was not really going anywhere.

Good luck to Coach Evans and the Grizzlies.

... to a nicer guy. I'm very, very happy for Coach Evans, who deserved better. Maybe when Roger Reid runs into the same troubles that kept Coach Evans from taking SUU beyond its current plateau, someone around there will look long and hard at the reasons. Maybe they will realize that a head coach without proper funding and a conference that takes him clear across the country to play league games can only accomplish so much.

Congrats to Bill Evans ... a great coach and an even greater man.
