Johnson was able to recruit the Lopez Twins from Fresno AND Miles Plumlee(who was released from his commitment after Johnson left for LSU)!!

He played inside-out offense so he needed bigs that could rebound, play defense and be at least serviceable on the block..

As others have said he had a disdain for the AAU fixers and though very qualified to coach LSU didn't fit long-term as he did turning Nevada around & winning 60% of ALL his games at Stanford!!

You dudes constantly rehash untruths !!

For the record, and I've said it a long time ago on here - I liked the TJ hire. I thought he was going to do well for us.

The CJJ hire I thought was lazy, even though I don't dislike Johnny at all.
