I worked there from ‘07 - ‘12. Started in high school and “got fired” when I graduated from LSU. Mike Johnson must’ve worked 80 hour weeks my entire time as an employee. He’s truly a class act. I haven’t played Santa Maria since early last year but I imagine he’s done well there as well. LSU seems to have gone downhill since Mike retired.

Yes and Yes.

Santa Maria is in very good shape. And I suppose when you lose someone like him, your course is inevitably going to suffer a little, but where it is now is too far gone.

Mike must have seen the handwriting on the wall and he got out at the right time.

I was at LSU while you were, probably saw me on that course a few times. Mike is a good dude. He had SM on the right path. It’s in as good of shape as I’ve seen it

Worked there from ‘14-‘19, mike retired my first year working there. You would’ve worked with my brother while you were there
It’s a fun course, especially when you get to play for free all the time. It doesn’t get any attention or proper funding from LSU, especially once mike left. They’ve been trying to close it down

The guy who took over for mike, Steve, has his hands full and is out of his league.
