As you probably already know, Ben Howland’s job at UCLA appears to be safe.
Why you ask it that important to a Kentucky fan?
Shabazz Muhammad has been rumored to be like UCLA a whole lot and his dad sounds like he is really happy with Howland sticking around.

The first thought I had when I heard that Howland was staying at UCLA was about Shabazz and it makes me wonder if the recruiting class he has coming in saved his job.
If he gets Muhammad there will be no question.[/FONT][/COLOR]
