Preview of Howland interview

I had a long one-on-one interview with Ben Howland, who really opened up about the last few years of UCLA basketball, including this quote that caught me just a bit off guard…

Me: So if you guys get hot, play well in conference, get a couple tournament wins, finish with 22, 23 wins…
Howland: “God, I’d kiss you right now. I swear to God. I would come over there and I’d kiss you if we got 22, 23, 24 wins. Are you kidding me? I’d be so happy. Are you kidding? That’s so nice to even project that possibility.”

More from the interview over the next couple days, and a ton of press conference videos. Stay tuned.
