Not warm and fuzzy, the men's xc team has not excelled since Powell or Lanana, the DEXA scans and weight pressure were a pretext to fire him, I would think because Phil Knight wants great performances in the distances, plus the championships numbered only one after 2017. But his overall results put him 4th all-time among coaches in championships, and it's not as if they were winning a lot of championships before Johnson got to the program around 2005. 14 titles as head coach from 2012 through 2021, and remember that there were no championships in 2020:
