Unless he's taking the Illinois job, there's no job available I'm aware of that's better than what he has at LSU.

I don't get it. Very weird move, timing and all.

He probably feels the pressure in BR and is looking to get out of dodge.

I agree. He was failing big-time.

Interesting move. Its just odd to leave the Tigers and go to TCU who is moving to the Big East. Interested to see who LSU goes after now that Trent is gone

Only thing I can figure at this point is TCU has committed to spending more on basketball as they transition to Big East play, which swayed Johnson to leaving Baton Rouge where he's been foundering. He is a good coach, of that I have no doubt. But he was better off at Stanford...something just wasn't clicking at LSU. I honestly never saw him turning them into a perenial competitor....which is really inexcusable. LSU has one of the most storied histories in the SEC outside of ours....winning at a high level there isn't really a huge, huge issue as long as you get some good recruits in there. I dunno...there's more to this story I'm certain. Something just doesn't add up here. Maybe he just wasn't happy w/the administration or something.
