I remember Johnny well from his short time in Buffalo. I was a season ticket holder there. Loved his game!
Thanks for the memories.

I was lucky to attend a summer basketball camp in Union City, TN in about 1971, & Johnny Neumann was there to teach us how to properly shoot & how to quickly fake to get into position to make that shot. I remember seeing him play and set records at Ole Miss, and at my young age of 61, I can still shoot the lights out using what Mr. Neumann taught me. He was a phenomenal motivator, and all of my fellow players and I loved him for what he shared! God now has someone that can shoot the lights out in Heaven.

Johnny Neumann, a great guy who never gave up on getting his college degree. An inspiration to those who didn't finish college for whatever reason and came back and finished up.
Sympathy for the family in this time of loss. His skills on the basketball court will never be forgotten. Loved his college and hometown. Gone too soon!
