I think Johnson will be fine. But Van Horn was more than just a pitching coach. He won a D2 national championship then took doormat Nebraska to 2 CWS.

DVH took over a program that was pretty bad in the 90s and had a 15 year Omaha drought.

Arkansas didn't have much baseball history prior and the brand was much smaller then than now.

It was a slow build but the 2004 CWS run believe was his best coaching job, I don't believe a single player got drafted on that team.

It wasn't until 2012 that DVH was able to get Arkansas in position to make a run to Omaha each season.

Recruiting slowly began to pick up and instate talent began to improve as well. Now just these last five years, Arkansas is recruiting top five classes.
