Sucks if he doesn't return. First Central alum to play for LSU since Todd McClure.

This. And it's not like he was developing into a stud or anything. He was taking up space on the roster.

Linebacker Josh Johns was not at practice again today. Word is he has left the team. Was taking reps with 2nd team to start spring ball.

No need for everyone to bash the kid cause he wasn't an All-SEC player.

Hope he does well in whatever he chooses.

He really bulked up at LSU. I figured that would help with injury's but maybe it did just the opposite.

My son says it was neck pain and stingers, like Peyton Manning had before surgery. He lifts weights at a gym with ex-players and coaches three nights a week and heard that.

Not knocking the kid in anyway shape or form. But Ive always thought from day one a scholarship was wasted on him. I never thought he would see the field at LSU. But I wish him the best of luck none to less.

Tough break, but he was a non contributor whose most notable moment as a Tiger was kicking a guy with JJ. Addition by subtraction IMO


This shows how well many of the "posters" on the Rant are clued in.

Johns was with the 2's, going to get some nice playing time if he remained healthy.

DC believed him to be the most athletic of the LB's. Strong coverage capability due to speed.

Sad to see him go. Kid is a class act.

Probably saw the writing on the wall with Muncie, Louis and Feist all ahead of him for that OLB spot opposite of Tahj Jones.

He was with the 2's in all of what 3 days of spring practice??? He's a rs JR this is his 4th year in the system and 2 starters graduated at his position last year, not to mention all of the incoming freshman talent at LB that hasnt even reported yet. Like I said before no knock on the kid and I wish him luck. I don't know why that offended you.
