Episode description

Crimson Corner returns with the first student-athlete host Michelle Bodkin ever got to know well and ultimately led her to covering sports in Utah safety Robert "RoJo" Johnson. Michelle and Johnson take a trip down memory lane to their criminology class in 2009 shortly after the Utes' Sugar Bowl victory.

The duo discusses the 2008 BCS Busters' upcoming induction into the Crimson Club Hall of Fame, how that team has remained close nearly 15 years later, and what it means knowing their success helped launch Utah's football's tremendous growth over the past 13 seasons in the Pac-12. 

RoJo and Michelle then turn to the current state of affairs in college football discussing NIL, how Utah is managing it thus far, and why the coaching stability that head coach Kyle Whittingham has provided has allowed the program to flourish. Finally, the two get into what Johnson has been up lately including a new job at the University of Utah, running youth football camps, and talking about social health with other former Utes David Kozlowski and Kenneth Scott.
