Isaiah Johnson update

[Eric]

Says he got accepted into grad school.

 

[AE 87]

Love it. I was half (or more) afraid that we were going to lose him.

 

[ATL1]

That's great. Hope he comes back healthy and ready to tear up the field next year and finish he's masters.

 

[OldJacketFan]

Very good news both on and off the field

 

[gtg936g]

Good news for the secondary

 

[collegeballfan]

Really good news. I was sure he would be considering going into the NFL draft. I trust I was dead wrong.

He will fight to get his job back much less nfl.

Agreed. He will have his hands full winning his job back. The kids coming back have experience and played pretty well in comparison to him last year.

I would really like to see CTR use IJ in a hybrid role. SS/OLB. With an additional 10 lbs he would be apt for that. Imo.

Am I the only one who's never been wowed by his play so far?

Considering the accolades that CPJ donned him since coming to the flats... Yeah its been underwhelming.

I liked him when he played in Wommack's defense (reacting to the ball). I think he got lost in Groh's defense (too complicated for him). He played well towards the end of 2012 after Groh was fired. It will be very interesting to see how he performs under Roof.

 

[Novajacket]

He never played in Wommack's defense. He did play better after Groh left last year and I think good to have next year.

 

[gtg936g]

I think he will face stiff competition for the spot, but it will be good to have some experienced depth in the secondary.

 

[awbuzz]

good news. Hope he ends up having a great season next year!

 

[OldJacketFan]

Experienced players battling for playing time is never a bad thing!

 

[awbuzz]

amen!

You sure 'bout that? Why do I remember him playing well, then looking completely lost when Groh got his hands on him, then looking significantly better when Groh left?

Was it all a dream?

 

[Dustman]

He played as a true freshman in 2010. Groh's first year.

Everybody looked better after Groh left.

 

[ATL1]

He'll start with Golden ....
