After the loss to Xavier in the First Four, Johnson said he was "thankful" to play in March Madness. The Longhorns came up short in what was essentially a home game for the Musketeers.

"I was just thankful for the opportunity to play in the NCAA Tournament," Johnson said. "The environment really didn't bother me as much. I heard them making noise, especially on their runs, but just knowing timely stops, I guess, because especially with the crowd getting into it, we've got to find a way to string at least three stops in a row just to quiet it back down, so now they've got to play us and we're not playing them and the crowd. I guess just knowing when to get timely stops."

Johnson finished the loss with 23 points and six rebounds on 6 of 14 shooting. He said the team suffered from miscommunication down the stretch.

"I just think we were playing good as a team, it just got late and we had a little miscommunication on some shots and they made big shots in big moments," Johnson said. "Give props to them. But we played good defense as a team almost the whole shot clock. Just had a little bit of miscommunication."
