Judge to Fox News: Don't make me 'look like an idiot' over Rupert Murdoch testifying

The Delaware judge overseeing a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News on Tuesday did not seem to buy the argument that founder Rupert Murdoch was too infirm to testify at trial next month.

The judge told Fox's attorneys not to make him "look like an idiot."

Kevin Johnson was named the 15th head men's basketball coach on March 29, 2023. He is entering his first season on the bluff.

Possessing more than 28 years of experience coaching and recruiting the state of Louisiana and regionally, Johnson is coming from Tulane University as assistant coach the last four seasons. He helped guide the Green Wave in 2022-23 to a 20-11 record and American Conference Tournament Semifinals appearance. He joined Ron Hunter's staff in April of 2019.
 
Prior to joining the Green Wave, Johnson spent nine seasons as an assistant coach at Louisiana-Lafayette under head coach Bob Marlin, helping the program to 174 wins (19.33 per year) including a school record 27 victories in 2017-18. ULL reached the postseason five times including a bid to the 2014 NCAA Tournament, as well as a 2018 Sun Belt regular season title and NIT appearance. The Ragin’ Cajuns won at least 21 games in four of his final six seasons in Lafayette, as the program averaged 22 wins per year during that span.

When I first read the title I thought you guys had hired the former Pheonix Suns guard who went on to be a mayor in California. 

Yeah, I can get that. In all honesty, I never gave it a second thought. Probably because he's a local guy who everyone is sort of familiar with, and the name is so common.

What I'm hearing, that might be his last major decision.

Humph, I can never understand why they think going with a safe hire will save their job. When they're on a short leash.

The only record of head coaching experience i could find was six years at Centenary. For a combined winning pct. of .394
