Coaching Finalists Meet Public Starting Monday

Public forums for Montana State's three men's basketball head coach finalists begin Monday, MSU Athletic Director Peter Fields said Saturday.
Bill Johnson meets interested Bobcat fans and local media on Monday at 3 pm on the Club Level (3rd floor) of Bobcat Stadium. Johnson just completed his second season with the Dons, and previously served as an assistant at Nebraska (1993-97), his alma mater, and Columbia (1997-2003). He was head coach at Casper College (2004).
Montana assistant coach Brad Huse meets with the public on Tuesday at 3 pm in the Stadium Club. A Montana Tech graduate originally from Missoula, Huse was a Tech assistant from 1991-94, when he joined Mick Durham's Bobcat staff. MSU registered 21-win campaigns in each of Huse's two seasons in Bozeman, including the 1996 Big Sky title season. He was 184-60 in eight seasons as head coach at Jamestown (N.D.) College (1996-2004), and has served as an assistant at Montana the past two seasons.
Northeastern (Okla.) State University head coach Larry Gipson meets with the public Wednesday at 3 pm in the Stadium Club. Gipson, 176-86 in nine years at NSU, led that school to the 2003 NCAA Division II National Championship, and previously led Northeastern (Okla.) A&M to a national junior college title. He was 67-73 as Toledo's head coach from 1991-96, finishing his time there with three straight winning seasons before moving into athletic administration for a year.
Fields has indicated a desire to hire a coach by early April.
