I’ve played pickup with John at the UREC a bunch of times. Felt like Joe Burrow when I hit him for a full court pass. He’s the nicest and most humble guy. He’ll be successful in whatever he does.

I have seen a direct correlation of athlete attitude at the UREC and success. HB, Addai, Garrett Temple, Ricky Jean-Francios, etc. we're nice and humble. JaMarcus, Tyrus, Sam Montgomery, etc. we're not.

The last player remaining from the 2019 GOAT team. He wants to return to the White House!

Good for him. Hopefully it works out that he can come back to LSU. His story should be a inspiration to other players. No matter how many set backs you have no matter if they are self inflicted or any other reason if you work hard and don't quit you can succeed.

He struggled academically, but grew up and got his BA. Good for him.

Glad to hear this. I wish him luck and total success wherever he goes. I sure hope it’s LSU!

OKBoomerSooner•9 months

I really want him back, but I suspect he might be better off taking a deal at a smaller program to be the surefire #1 guy. Wish him well wherever he goes—he poured it out for the good guys and no one has a bad thing to say about him.

This young man has heart and determination! Wish the best of luck wherever he goes!

Love it, lucky #7, here we go!

Good for him. Has always been a nice, good , quiet kid
Was never rude or arrogant even though he was a 5 star whose career never matched up.

Friendly Satan•9 months

Does he have to take classes? That always seemed to be his downfall… like the missing apostrophe in his announcement.

mdomingue•9 months

He graduated in May, I think. The announcement was made by his NIL agent, not him. So the apostrophe gaff is on them. But grammar seems to be a lost cause nowadays. Just look at the social media posts of any TV or newspaper, it will be riddled with grammatical errors.

If 7 years isn’t the record, it has got to be pretty close to it. Let’s Geaux!
