Congratulations to former Duke assistant and legend Johnny Dawkins who has been given an extension by Central Florida.
UCF has committed to Dawkins through the 2023-24 season.
So far he’s 43-25 at UCF and, counting Stanford, 199-140 overall.
He’ll have the biggest player in college back next year, Tacko Fall, as well as his own son Aubrey, who transferred from Michigan, and some other solid talents as well. Expectations are high, as they should be.
Aside from doing a solid job, Dawkins is a genuinely good man. When Stanford fired him it was more like a rejection letter from a Japanese publishing house than an actual firing.
