Josh Johnson Enters Transfer Portal

Per Alex Halsted.

This is a little disappointing. I was excited for his potential and he seemed to run really solid routes. Hopefully this means there is good competition for the young guys and he was getting passed over.

Good luck to Josh.

That’s a typo in the name right? Wasn’t he supposed to see a lot of snaps this year

Must have got jumped by guys in camp? Seems like he was a number 2 last year behind Hakeem

Yeah, I hate to speculate but a transfer this time of year might mean that after spring practice the writing was on the wall. Or maybe he was just homesick. Who knows? Good luck to him wherever he lands. He had a very impressive offer list coming out of high school.

I really wish it was. I thought he had a ton of potential

CW had mentioned that Scates had a good spring, too. Lots of competition in the receiver room overall.

Bummer. I always thought he had a lot of upside. Hopefully that means that we have some studs in the WR corps who passed ahead of him.

Thanks @Dandy I don't have the ability to attach tweets at work.

When I watched his HS film and video of him from camps I had him pegged as a future stud. Turns out he was a lot smaller than he was originally listed... probably fit well as a slot receiver but couldn't beat out Tarique and DeShaunte or Akers.

Hopefully this is a testament to our receiver room.

Might be a good time to update the depth chart https://cyclonefanatic.com/football/depth-chart/

Scates, Shaw, Milton, Jones sounds like a great wide receiver line-up! (on paper)

Hopefully this is a testament to our receiver room.

At this point you would think that is the case. That or something else is going on and he is looking for a new start.

Hate to see guys leave, but there has been an improvement in recruiting at every position, and some guys are just not going to get the playing time they thought they would.

Sean Shaw is 6-6. Thats nice.

Just need to hope he has learned from his freshman mistakes, and I honestly think he could have a Freshman All-Big 12 year.

It is a typo, unfortunately I guess.

No matter how we want to try to spin this, it isn't good news for the WR group IMO. Josh was definitely in the mix for quite a bit of playing time this year. Maybe not a starter yet, but this will hurt depth for sure.

People have forgotten about Jalen Martin too. Didn't see his name mentioned in posts above.

Ugh, I was excited to watch him this year

A 4* getting passed up on the depth chart is bad?
