Class Impact: Tyler Johnson to Miami

[DMoney]

Off-field stuff here. Hope he has success at his next spot, he has a ton of talent.

Never a good assessment...

Sorry, kid, best of luck elsewhere...

Makes sense it’s off field cause if you were gonna leave you should’ve done it 4 weeks ago.

Sucks that he never really got going but this is the reason you recruit top talent every year.

Sorry @DMoney but I never saw it with Johnson. The only thing I hung on to was that he was Quan's younger brother and some people said he had Quan's instincts in an LB body. But I always complained that his HUDL highlights showed nothing but edge rushing.

It's been a few years, but I believe they had him in maybe one coverage shot across the entire highlight. He was not an LB. And I honestly cannot recall one edge rusher we've successfully converted into a high quality LB.

Wish him luck. My guess is he'll struggle at LB, will end up a situational DE/edge wherever he lands.

It will be worth watching how much he grows over the next two years, and he certainly could have a similar trajectory as former South Dade teammate and current Miami DE/OLB Patrick Joyner.

Prescient.

This is a G5 player tbh

Ive yet to see any proof of that on the college level

 

[Canesfan1899]

Good luck to the young man, hope he figures it out.

 

[Stylie]

He had a great career at Miami. He will be missed.

HS DE to College LB never works out.It is the other way around.

You need to bear in mind that Manny is smarter than everyone else though. Where we see square peg round hole, he sees a Striker.

Considering he couldn’t sniff the depth chart behind our already trash *** linebacker room is all you need to know. He would never play meaningful snaps here, hence why he transferred. This kid shouldn’t have even been in that class.

Man the kid was a TRUE FRESHMAN & he didn’t get into school until August! Y’all don’t be knowing **** on here & be quick to ride kids off (Pause?

And? You’re pretty dumb if you think he would have any type of meaningful role in that linebacker room. Flagg isn’t that good and he got looks his freshman year. These little 3* recruits won’t be getting a lot of burn if Mario and staff recruit the way they should…the way they will fingers crossed.

It worked with Micah Parsons but rarely otherwise

You have to get the right prospect. 6’0 185 ATH crowding the line and blitzing on every down isn’t going to work. Parsons played every position. He was a RB too that scored 27 TDs his senior year. He did more than just blitz
