If so, why was Johnson hired at the time over JJ?

Look at the resumes of the two men at that point in time.

This plus Alleva had been on the job for like 10 minutes and had no idea about the inner workings of the program and what it means to be a good fit at LSU, particularly in basketball.

True, he was looking to replicate what he had at Duke.

On paper, JJ was not a slam-dunk hire even 4 years later.
