      Feels reminiscent of Stig retiring for Jimmy to take over. Have to think JD knew this was coming when he left for Fresno.

          Either that or some personal or family related issue suddenly came up. The timing plus the Yotes looking at a season where they have a realistic shot at a Natty makes for a surprising decision.

              Yotes making the same mistake we did.

              Johansen will leave for some team in a town no one has ever heard of without a conference in less than 2 years.

                  I submit he left because he didn't want to put up with all the stupidity of NIL and the portal. The new age era of greediness and "me first:" mentality is sending a lot of distinguished coaches out the door.
