MySpace profile: Ian Johnson version 2.0

Every so often, OBNUG puts on its investigative hat and hunts down the social network profiles of Boise State personalities. We're not proud of it.



Earlier today, we delved into the personal profile page of Ian Johnson. Or did we?

Further research shows a decidedly more personal MySpace page for #41, complete with accurate information, real photos, and mentions of his wife Chrissy. You mean there can be more than one profile page per person? Technology completely eludes us!

• Profile name: ian
• Tagline: Knowledge!!!!
• Friends: 39
• Top Friends: Chrissy Johnson, Shaun Jordan
• Music: Your Life and Mine by Just Surrender
• Books: "books are for nerds"
• Most tragic comment: "Hey good luck tomorrow bro! show everyone that Hawaii is no match for you!"

MySpace profile: Ian Johnson

Every so often, OBNUG puts on its investigative hat and hunts down the social network profiles of Boise State personalities. We're not proud of it.

We figured Ian Johnson to be a popular guy. He is an athletic, famous jock with a nationally recognized moment in the spotlight. Yet he only has 231 MySpace friends.

We attribute this to one of two things:

1. He has agoraphobia.
2. We did not find his actual MySpace page.

The latter option is a very good possibility, considering his profile lists his income at $250,000 and Barry Sanders as a Top Friend. At the same time, though, he has a lot of real, authentic people on his MySpace friend list, and they all seem to think that they are friends with the real Ian Johnson.

Agoraphobia is out of the question, too. People with social fears do not propose in front of a national TV audience.

Perhaps the reason for his low friend count is that he doesn't use MySpace very often. Maybe he views it as childish and immature, and he sees it as an obsession for those with no lives of their own. We wonder what that makes us then.

On second thought, forget we asked that.
