He's expected to transfer. I'll add a link when an article comes out, but, as for now, any Tigers have info?

ETA: The Advocate seemingly is the only outlet with an article out

He is supposedly going to texas tech. He got passed up by other talent.

I don't believe we have tossed his locker in the trash

I think Tech was his runner up so that would make sense. He will do well there IMO

No room for him here, unless he wants to switch to DB.

What I posted in the other thread just now:

quote:

Johnson wasn't even listed on the DC after spring was he? He emerged as the third receiver last year and then dropped that far in 4 months.

This may have been in the makings for a while.

I have no evidence of this, but this feels like this was an attitude/work ethic thing

Sucks to see him go but LSU isn't hurting at WR.

Agreed. You just need 2 good ones to catch 5 per game, and y'all have got that.

Sucks this didn't work out because he was a huge get for LSU at the time. He seemed to fall off.

But I thought only A&M had 5* offensive talent transfer.

great talent but apparently didn't put in the extra work

hopefully the light comes on for him because he's always been a decent kid, wish him the best

Is he the 3rd or 4th WR gone this year?

i don't lose sleep over us losing receivers. it's not like les will utilize them properly anyway. hopefully he goes somewhere where they take advantage of his talent.

Wow! I remember when he was telling Dupre he was a better high school player than he had been. This is our second receiver stud to transfer out this year. Makes sense given that we're overloaded with talent at that position, but suprising.
