Bill Johnson, UWM's radio announcer is not a fan of the administration, to say the least

While those types of rants are fun to behold, they really are classless.
Made Deadspin.

Fran's pal and radio working partner gone? That's tragic.
Now that they are likely to be a sub 300 RPI team, can we schedule them again?
What I am missing - they wanted TJ but got overruled and hired Jordan instead? What else is going on?
It's at least somewhat ironic that he misspelled competent when complaining about the competence of the administration.
Tj just got the job at South Dakota st. It should have been at UWM.. What a mess!!!!!

I hope that pic is from a UWM practice, because there is NOBODY in those seats....
Photo was from a tourney in Florida.

Just stupid. Retirement does not equal invincibility.
One life to live.
If he thinks they suck might as well say it. They probably do.
MU better get back to elite in basketball otherwise criticism for MU's civil leaches will be coming.

We haven't been elite in 35+ years
Not with guys like you in the AD office. ;D
We need savvy. Thought we went to the ELITE eight three years ago under Buzz.

Your definition of elite and mine are much different. Elite was UCLA, MU, Kentucky in the 1970's. Or similar types of teams currently. If we're using your definition, Wisconsin-madison is elite, Notre Dame is elite
Bill Johnson is a nice enough guy but he is a bit of a stooge. It is perfect that in his rambling resignation letter he accuses the administration of being "incompatent". Bill likes to present himself as the smartest guy in the room when in actuality that is normally far from the truth. My assumption is that there is more to this story and he is just trying to get ahead before he was let go. BTW he is a terrible play by play guy.
I remember when Johnson had a huge mullet and was painfully obese back in the day. Not that there's anything wrong with that. He'd wear sweats to hs games.
I find the term "dumpster fire" an interesting analogy — and very fitting in this case. Everything in said dumpster is garbage that nobody cares about. The fact that it's on fire is spectacular, but ultimately pretty meaningless.
