Brent Montague

Athletics Corporate Sales

Brent Montague was hired as the Athletic Corporate Salesperson at Montana State University Billings in August of 2007.

Montague returns to MSU Billings after spending the last four years in automotive sales.  He was an assistant basketball coach for the Yellowjackets from 1996 to 2003.  In 2000, Montague took over as MSUB’s NCAA Compliance Officer, a position he held until he left the university in 2003. 

“We are very pleased to announce the hiring of Brent Montague as our newest Athletics Corporate Salesperson,” Gray said.  “The addition of Brent to our corporate partnership sales staff will allow us to grow our already successful sponsorship program by being able to contact more businesses in the Billings area and explain to them how they can increase the sales of their products and services through some unique advertising opportunities with Yellowjacket Athletics.  Brent is a product of our program and a graduate of our university.  He is a member of our Hall of Fame and Distinction and a former Yellowjacket coach.  He brings four years of successful sales experience in the Billings community, and we are extremely pleased to have him on our staff.”

Montague, a native of Marysville, Wash., played basketball for two seasons at MSU Billings and helped lead the Jackets to the NCAA Tournament in 1996.  In Montague’s senior season, the Yellowjackets reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 10 years.  He averaged 19.4 points and 8.6 rebounds per game that year, leading MSU-Billings to the Pacific West Conference title.  That was the same year that the Yellowjackets knocked off Oregon State on the Beavers’ home court.  Considered one of the cornerstones in the rejuvenation of the Yellowjacket basketball program, Montague was inducted into the MSU-Billings Hall of Fame and Distinction in 2002.

Montague’s responsibilities as the Athletics Corporate Salesperson will include selling corporate partnership packages to local business, coordinating advertising opportunities for corporate partners, and increasing enrollment in the Yellowjacket Athletic Association.  Montague can be reached at 896-5934.
