I didn’t say this four years ago because I didn’t want to appear negative. But I didn’t really get the Johnson hire. He had zero college coaching experience. He had early success in the NBA but got fired rather quickly and completely flopped at his second job. He seemed to come out of nowhere to get the job when the Marshall deal failed.
While I understand supporting your coach, I thought some of the boasting about him to be way over the top. Even after two mediocre years with one and done in the NIT, everyone still thought he was going to lead us to the promised land. We did win an NCAA game last year, but if Sexton doesn’t make that shot in the SECT, I think it is another trip to the NIT or Dayton at best.
I am sad it didn’t work out, but not surprised.
