UW assistant Jeff Choate introduced as head coach at Montana State

Also, in another staffing change, Mike McHugh has been dismissed as the Huskies' director of football operations.

Winning will be a priority for Jeff Choate at Montana State. It won’t be the only one for the first-time head coach.

“The beautiful thing about coaching at the FCS level is there is some perspective,” Choate said at his introductory news conference in Bozeman. “At Montana State we can really keep the student first. When they look back in 15 years, it’s not going to be the things they did … the thing they’ll remember is who they become as a result of this experience.
