Brandt and Josh Johnson leaving

[CoteauRinkRat]

Rumor has it that Josh Johnson is actually enrolled at UND and taking classes this semester?? Looks like his heart truly was not into basketball anymore. good luck to him.

Is this really true? I haven't heard that yet.

Jeff Brandt was a great player at MSU. He is such a talented three point shooter. He is a great defender. Jeff is just an all around great basketball player. He averaged over 20 points for the Beavers. Almost every game the dome was jam packed, even if it was a dead give away who was going to win. (go beaver fans!) He won so many games for us. He shined on the court this whole season. I'm so glad Jeff joined the Beavers for his last year of college basketball. It was so much fun to see him sink so many threes!

A source in the Minot State Athletic department told me off the record, Brandt and Johnson didn't like all the committment and seriousness surrounding the Sioux. They didn't like all the required offseason workouts (practices) and social functions they had to attend.

Attended a Holiday tournament a couple years ago at the Dome in Minot. At tipoff for the noon game between MSU and Black Hills State, there were maybe 50 people there, and that included the scorekeepers and announcers. It was the weirdest thing ever. I'm not dissing MSU or their fans here because I remember from the 80s when they had powerhouse teams and packed the dome, but Brandt and Johnson go from playing in front of a lot of huge crowds to an atmosphere like that. Kind of funny when you think of it. Good Luck to them, just too bad they couldn't be men and actually say why they were leaving.

YOU STINK! JEFF IS A GREAT PLAYER!
