OT: Princeton's Johnson to coach Fairfield

I thought this was surprising after all the good publicity he got for winning the Ivy League playoff and then taking Kentucky to the wire in the first round. It sounds like he was floating his name around for jobs (including Bradley's) and ended up at Fairfield with a pay raise to leave his alma mater. I would have figured he could have done better.

Bad team in a good league, sounds like a nice challenge.

Of course when the Major League is formed the A10 will get gutted worse than any conference. 8-)

I am surprised that Princeton is so 'cheap'. Maybe more money at Fairfield, but sure is a step or two backwards in prestige.
