Who is Brad Huse?

Brad Huse is an American college basketball coach and the current head men's basketball coach at Montana State University. On April 4, 2006, he was hired following the departure of Mick Durham.

During his first season back on the Bobcat bench he began building the program using a proven blueprint for success. He even dismissed a player for unspecified reasons.

A three-time conference coach of the year at the NAIA level and a Division I assistant, Huse's first Bobcats squad compiled an 11–19 record. MSU finished 8–8 in the Big Sky in 2007.

Huse brings a broad coaching background to the Bobcat program. The Missoula native sandwiched eight highly successful years as head coach at North Dakota's Jamestown College with two-year stints as an assistant at Montana State and Montana. He rolled up a 184–60 record with the Jimmies, leading that squad to championships in five of his eight years there.

Just as important as the lessons learned at the end of the bench, Huse built a strong foundation during his time a couple of seats over. His coaching tutelage began as a cager at Montana Tech, first for former Indiana coach Kelvin Sampson, and later for Rick Dessing, who would put together a highly successful coaching career in the Frontier Conference. Huse was a three-time All-Frontier Conference honoree at Tech, earning NAIA All-America honors as a senior.
