UAB Green and Told

On this episode of UAB Green and Told, we welcome Aaron Johnson. There's a good chance you may recognize his name, and with good reason. His name is littered throughout the UAB men's basketball record book. While he thrived as a Blazer, his journey to Birmingham came with some struggles. As he will share, that includes an unconventional recruitment process at a time coaches were trying to get in touch with him. Once at UAB, he became a star. But, as he will explain, his prolific career on the court came crashing to an end. But, his injury didn't tarnish his name or place among the school's all-time great's. His career was one that saw his jersey number retired and hoisted to the rafters in Bartow Arena.twitt
