Q: Will he ever have a chance to play for the Gophers?

A: We haven't even really thought like that. More than anything, we've told him, "This is the situation, and if you want to explore other options, you're more than welcome to do that. Or if you want to be a part of our program still, help out and be a valuable asset to what we're trying to do, we would love to have you."

It's disappointing he can't play basketball, but he still gets a free education and still gets to be a part of this team. You always hear the disappointing things about what the NCAA does, or universities; well, this is a good thing that they do. I'm happy we're able to provide him that.

Q: Does Johnson's scholarship count against your 13, and what would you do with an open scholarship?

A: It doesn't count against us. We're not sure what we're going to do with it. We're always open and looking for certain things. We're always recruiting. That's something we always do because you never know what can happen with anything. I'm not sure if it's too late or not, but we're looking at a couple different options.
