This speaks volumes of what BJ thinks about our WRs on campus. He is desperate to get production.

At 5'8" 169lbs Im going out on a limb and saying WR. And yes, we need big uglies no doubt. I think in the next month or two you'll see them start to come aboard.

Johnson would be a '13 WR if he can transfer this summer. Not a '14 LB.

Johnson is a take if he an get out in May or this summer. The staff feels like they need some depth with only six scholarship receivers.

As for Johnson, he is a 5-10, 180-pound receiver from Friendswood, Texas, who is on pace to graduate in 2013 and be ready to help the Vols this year. If not, he isn't a take, according to several reports. Johnson was a full qualifier out of high school according to this article, but he decided he didn't want to go to any school and felt like he deserved to be on a Division I team.

Looking at his game log last year, Johnson had 5 catches for 69 yards...rushed 1 time for 3 yards...returned 1 kick 60 yards...and had 4 punt returns for 67 yards. Blinn only played 8 games last year and Johnson apparently didn't play in their last 5.

Johnson's senior stats at Friendswood HS were OK, but nothing stands out. It looks like he was primarily a running back who averaged 6.2 ypc. As a junior, though, he caught 51 passes (10.6 ypc) and rushed for over 1,500 yards. He was even more impressive as a receiver his sophomore year, catching 61 passes for 872 yards (14.3 ypc) & 10 TDs.

Not sure about this offer but I know next to nothing about this guy.

Butch must feel good about the chances of getting him enrolled with the '13 class . Otherwise, this one is a bit of a head scratcher considering the amount of big name '14 WR targets we are in on. but in any case. . .

Welcome to the big orange family, Mr Johnson!!

I think it's a good move by Jones if Johnson can make it in this summer. It gives us another offensive weapon for this season, which is something we desperately need at the moment.
