If you aren't willing to recruit over the top of Johnson, you aren't serious about winning.

I'm glad you're high on Cumberland though. Hopefully that helps answer the question about that position battle.
You've clearly never been in a high level team environment to understand how volatile things can get when you have a pissed off guy with a critical role on the team. Just toss your senior captain under the bus, and see how it permeates through a locker room. Last time that happened was the last time UC missed the tournament.

Cumberland is going to be critical at the 2 and the 3. Trying to make it out to be him or Kevin is setting up a false narrative to have something to complain about along the way...

Didn't he chose to go there after leaving KU because he couldn't crack the line up. He played 35 minutes a game for Neb. 16-18 team that he was a huge part of and you think it's ok to punch our because he is to good to play with them. Jake is that how you would honor your comittment and treat your teammates. I'm to good to play here?

If you aren't serious about knowing how to manage a roster, you have very little chance of keeping your job long term...

Do you think character is part of that equation?

Kevin Johnson is a team guy. Does he want minutes, or does he want the team to win? The obvious answer us both...but c'mon, he's had 3 years to lock down his spot and he hasn't gotten it done.
