She's at HPC this morning.
Should have been on the hot seat!!
LSU's not been a good hitting team under CPM

He may have done some good things for LSU in his time, but his corruption & populist (nearly communist) agenda set Louisiana back for decades. LSU & Louisiana would have been far better off in the long run without him.


This!!
All of the players still on scholarship still have not received theirs!

Where did you read this nonsense?


An earlier thread about Johns leaving.





But I quoted it because I was told the EXACT same thing by one of the GA's!

quote:

Either way he was clearly going to get jumped. The guy is just not that talented and we're bringing in A TON of talented LBs. The writing was on the wall for him. Injured or not if he came back he wouldn't of made it to 2nd string for the fall.


Obviously you have better information than I do. I was told he was the most athletic LBer on the team. Had he stayed healthy he'd have started last year! But you have more knowledge about the situation than me.

There's what you missed, other guys have jumped him if you've read practice reports after the very first one.


Nope! Go read Brian Lizarres report on Saturdays practice. Btw that's the day johns got another stinger! That was his last day. Came to the training room in a lot of pain.

Best of luck to you Josh Johns!!!


Best original attempt at a comeback !!! I've only seen this used..... Let's see 10000000000000000000000000 times!

Not offended. You just dont have a clue !

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

Shea Dixon:
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.

quote:

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.

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.


This!

Those to frosh are getting after it at practice. I hope he goes somewhere and get some PT.


He left because of chronic recurring injuries!

He's done w football.

If by 2's you meant 3's then you're correct. He played on kickoffs but couldn't beat out at least 6 other LBs for playing time. So in a 2-6-3 formation, maybe he is a 2nd string guy.


Only thing that kept him off the field as a LBer were repeated injuries.

If you don't think so. Talk to K Sheppard or R Baker. Both thought he was the best SAM LBer on the team and not for injuries would have been playing.

He was not charged and not involved.

He was never considered for PT because of his injuries. I was told by some of the strength coaches that he was considered the most athletic LBer at LSU.

And the most memorable moment was his mention in the sec championship game!
