Bad take....Johnson was over 51% @ Nevada and took them to their first NCAA Tournament in over 15 years BEFORE getting hired @ Stanford where he was over 60% in and out of conference play!!!


The biggest difference was his ties to the West Coast and Pacific NW as a player, asst.coach was easier for his recruiting (something that LSU fans claimed he did not do well)...

He was qualified to coach @ basketball powerhouse LSU!!!

I, as did most LSU fans, thought it a good hire at the time. But it turned out to be a bad fit.

I think he bristled and Collis Temple's influence from the start and that made it tough sledding for him.

And he detested the AAU recruiting pipeline and having to roll in that gutter, which at Nevada and Stanford you might be able to still get players outside that arena and have some success, but here I think you pretty much have to roll around in it to get the players you need.
