Today is the final day of RC Johnson time as AD at University of Memphis. It has been a wild ride. Football had is greatest success. Tiger Lane was built. Men's Basketball took over C-USA & made it to the title game. That team also had the most wins in a season ever, 38. Fund raising is at a all-time high. Memphis Pom are National Champions. Memphis is about to join the Big East. Hiring first John Calipari then Josh Pastner as men's basketball coach has worked out.
It is also fair to mention, football is in horrible condition. Larry Porter, who got the job over now Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze, did a poor job & was fired after two seasons. New coach, Justin Fuente was not hired by RC. Call for a on campus football stadium were ignored. The Basketball title game appearance was vacated, along with the 38 win season ever. Cal left the program in horrible shape & Josh Pastner has picked out of desperation. The Big East is falling apart, with teams jumping to the ACC & Big 12.
That being said, Memphis sports are now better. But I am still annoyed about a few things RC, anyway goodbye RC.
