Mark Johnson is glad he looked into the opportunity of becoming the first men?s hockey coach at Penn State and is content with how the process played out. Contrary to a report last last month, Johnson said he wasn?t offered the job to take over in Happy Valley, where brand-new men?s and women?s programs will debut in 2012-13.
?It never got to the point where, ?Yes, I want the job? or ?No, I don?t want the job,? ? Johnson said Wednesday after taking part in a ground-breaking ceremony for LaBahn Arena, the $34.09 million hockey and swimming facility being built adjacent to the Kohl Center.
