Brian Howard brings veteran Vandal toughness to Idaho’s defensive line
Brian Howard’s value is less about flashy stat-chasing and more about old-school trench work: he’s a sturdy interior presence who showed he could anchor Idaho’s front and even handle short-yardage work as a touchdown threat in the 2003 season. The big takeaway is fit — if you want a disciplined, physical DT who can eat blocks, hold gaps, and bring some sneaky goal-line nastiness, Howard fits the mold; the limitation is that the available public info is mostly historical, so current-season production and ranking data aren’t clearly documented.
