NH Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 We've really missed Johnson the last two years, in my opinion. RUBillsFan, MusicCityBilliken and Box and Won like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I thought Johnson left because he wanted to play the 3 but Ford saw him more as a guy who could stretch the defense as a 4? What would have changed that he would want to come back now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're talking about going to the Airplane Graveyard, Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man style. I think you meant Jalen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I pointed that out last year, how much he would have helped. That team lacked 3-point threats even more than this year's team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it happened Ford expressed that he was caught off guard by the departure. Clearly Ford wanted a stretch player like Johnson... that's why he had to scramble and go out and take a flier on Hankton. This is not a case of Ford letting a player go, to add somebody else he had in mind. cheeseman likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetorch Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 Lancona barely averaged double figures for the Point Loma Sea Lions. Those Crews teams were some of the most dysfunctional in Billikens history. Crews not only couldn't recruit talent, the only talent he brought in was headcases and felons.
