Which college(s) did Johnson coach at previously?

I definitely think that's something worth making you question it. This game has been played in the summer months since at least the 1960s, so the change would appear to be the fact that the demand of the college programs has increased - especially when you look at how many college sports are now pushing for freshmen to graduate from high school early in order to be on campus at the college in spring to start workouts and practices with the team at that point rather than in the summer, as they traditionally have. I do think it's interesting, though, that Indiana's roster appears to have more players with big-time D1 program commitments, and yet they are still planning on playing in the high school all-star game. The shift in methods and practices by the college programs certainly makes you have to wonder if the All-Star game should look to pivot and change up its traditional schedule. But at the same time, why does this not appear to be such an issue for Indiana players while Kentucky had its Mr. Basketball, Reed Sheppard, drop off the roster late in the process and had one of the stronger Mr. Basketball contenders in Evan Ipsaro decline to even take place in the All-Star game in the first place?

Here are a couple of pictures from inside of Corbin's Ossie Burch Fieldhouse:

Here are some pictures from the dedication of the Covington Catholic Fieldhouse back in August '22. The building was originally the old Town & Country indoor soccer facility behind the Town & Country Restaurant in the mid-to-late 1990s, and then when Town & Country moved out to Wilder, it was sold to a competitive cheer organization as their practice facility, and Cov Cath has had it for the last couple of years. They completed their renovation of the facility about this time last year thanks to a large donation from the Cincinnati Bengals, and it's been a really great addition to the athletic resources we have at Cov Cath.

Assuming the CJ quote at the top your reason for asking?

Per the KHSAA directory. If this is the guy I'm thinking of, I believe he was previously on the coaching staff at Madisonville-North Hopkins. Or it may have been Hopkins County Central, actually?
