For those who don't know, Rob Johnson was a big Panthers fan and probably the most popular student on campus at the end of the last decade. He was a frequent reader of this message board, although I can't recall what his username was. He was one of the only guys in the student section with me over those dark years after 2006, and he was close friends with some players on the basketball team.
He was talented as a rapper, but what always stuck out to me was that even though he was a tiny little guy, he was always the biggest person in the room. He had a larger-than-life personality and he made everyone around him happy. He really should have pursued a career in stand-up comedy because the guy was hilarious. What always struck me about Rob was that we could go a couple years without seeing each other, then pick up our last conversation as if it never stopped.
He still was a frequent attendee at basketball games, and was back at school to finish up his degree in special education.
