Living in Stillwater I get asked a lot about him. Where do you think he would be on the depth chart with our stacked receiving corp if he stayed. Would have been a senior this year here, but a junior at Okie Lite since he sat out in 2016.

Today is a good learning experience for a lot of you. Thread titles with just a name are going to get the anchor faster than you can edit.

He was good and should’ve stayed. He’d have been a nice senior to lead this young WR Corp.

He was talented. I haven’t followed him since.

I would imagine he would be in the rotation somewhere after Giles.

The guy who quits after a year isn’t a guy you want leading.

Well in this hypothetical he wouldn't have quit, being that the question posed is "If Tyron Johnson stayed at LSU."

18 Rec, 293 yds, 3 TDs.

That was with Mason Rudolph at QB in a pass happy offense.

There might be way less touches for TJ if OSU goes with the new DT QB.

He’s not better than our top 4 WRs

Wasn't he a five star?

He could replace Giles or Jefferson and our star rating would climb!

Yes, he was the #1 WR in the country out of highschool

He was behind 2 seniors who both got drafted FYI

But he also hurt himself getting into trouble early on at OSU. This will be his make or break year.

I wanted 7-8 OSU games last year and I never saw him get looks unless he was running a go route. I know one of the knocks on him coming out of HS was that he never really learned how to run crisp routes and he had that issue at LSU as well. I'm far from an expert, but he might not ever be a great route runner.

His biggest issue is his attitude, it got him in trouble here, and got him trouble at OSU already. If he keeps that in check, he can tear apart Big 12 secondaries no problem.

He had 4 catches for 118 yards and 2 TD against OU last year in a back and forth game.

Pump your breaks.... Chase, Marshall, and Jefferson hasn't even played a meaningful college football snap yet. How did you come up with that?

well, Johnson hasn't played in many either and hasn't showed he has 5 star talent in the snaps he has played
