As March Madness continues to ensue, Georgia head basketball coach Mike White recently paid a visit to a friend.
White flew up to Madison Square Garden on Saturday to watch Keyontae Johnson, one of the best players he’s ever had under him, and former assistant Dusty May from his Florida days. Johnson’s No. 3-seeded Kansas State Wildcats faced May’s No. 9-seeded Florida Atlantic University Owls in the Elite 8.
The game didn’t end in the Wildcats’ favor the way Johnson wanted it to, as May’s Owls ultimately topped Kansas State, 79-76 on the hardwood.
It will be interesting to see how May’s program fares in its first Final Four appearance.
Georgia coach Mike White here at MSG. He flew up today to see both his former star player, Keyontae Johnson, and his former longtime assistant, Dusty May. His brother Brian is also the AD of FAU.
Two of White’s assistants, Akeem Miskdeen and Erik Pastrana, also made the trip.
