For much of a memorable men's basketball season, new University of Alabama head coach Avery Johnson spent his time teaching. Now, with the season over, the street runs in the other direction. Johnson, while still busy with recruiting, is also reflecting on a year that showed great promise before a bittersweet ending.
Before he starts teaching again, Johnson is learning. He spoke with The Tuscaloosa News on Friday about three things he had learned over the course of Alabama's 18-15 season, his first year as a college basketball coach.
"I did learn a lot," Johnson said. "This was my first year back at the collegiate level as a head coach. It was my first year to work collectively with our staff. It was my first year to recruit. So I have been thinking about those things.
