Former LSU running back Ju’Juan Johnson has committed to Syracuse out of the transfer portal.

Johnson, a former four-star athlete from Lafayette, La. (Lafayette Christian Academy), came to LSU as a defensive back but switched to running back during his freshman season last year, rushing for just 14 yards on seven carries. He also had five receptions for 22 yards and one touchdown.

Johnson played behind sophomore Caden Durham and true freshman Harlem Berry this past season and rushed 151 yards on 38 carries and two touchdowns.

Coming out of high school, Johnson was the most productive quarterback in Louisiana prep history with a record 14,451 total yards and 171 total touchdowns.

Johnson appeared in every game over the last two seasons and will have two years of eligibility at his next school.

Happy for him. Not transferring to a rival and just wanting to ball out. I respect it and will root for him. Best of luck to him.

I hate this. I was wanting to see what Lane could do with him. I know he just wants a shot to be QB. I hope he has success.

When I read this, I was like “didn’t this happen last year”. I see now that I’m thinking about Rickie Collin’s, who left to Syracuse last year. I’m struggling to keep up with the CFB musical chairs.

Sorry to see JuJuan leave Louisiana. He seemed like a real team player but was underutilized by our previous coaching staff. I hope JuJuan has much success in New York.

He will ball out because he was severely underutilized under BK.
