Howland isn't stubborn and I like it.

The man hates zone defense. But he quickly realized we were not equipped to man up. So he's gone with what works despite his preferences. I like it.

No doubt. I could see a lot of coaches riding the man-man D all year because "that's how I do it", but Howland made a heck of an adjustment.

We should continue to improve too since I doubt we spent much time practicing it preseason. Hopefully we get better rebounding out of it too, although given our personnel, it could be a challenge.

Exactly, he is not stubborn. We would foul out several players trying to play man to man. We just dont have the depth and cant play with the players we have.
