2024-25 Niners Basketball 🏀

Looks like Johnson is the replacement for Conner Henry.

From last season’s game notes .pdf:

Hate we lost Henry. He looked to be a very active teacher during the timeouts last year. He was always pulling guys aside and talking to them.

Henry just came for 1 year to help fearne get started

Reading through the official announcement and sounds like Johnson would have been a good choice to join Gottlieb at UW Green Bay. Played for UWGB (with Tony Bennett) and then served as an assistant for his alma mater before eventually being inducted into the Phoenix Hall of Fame.

Welcome to the QC Coach Johnson!

I am looking forward to this season. We actually may be a better shooting team this year, especially if Rolf is healthy. Richart will need to show his toughness and provide some rebounding help.

Let’s go out and add a solid wing to our roster that can score the ball. How about a guy like Garwey Dual? High talent out of HS but just needs to now put up numbers. Come to a G5 like us and get noticed again or Wooga Poplar!!! I hope he doesn’t end up at Temple!!!

Take a look at this link below of some of the top players still out there!!!

For his name alone, I want Wooga. Garwey Dual is pretty solid, too

Getting $60K from Gardner Webb is such a baller move

Does that mean we might end up paying G-W more than $60K? A percentage of the gate? Hmm… :thinking:

Last season, Gardner-Webb was 17-16 (6-8 away) last season, while LIU was 7-22 (1-17 away).

Bulldogs had a coaching change when Tim Craft took the Western Carolina job after Justin Gray left for Coastal Carolina. G-W associate HC Jeremy Luther was promoted to HC.
