Toby Johnson - Yahoo! Sports 4* per Rivals Ht:6'4" Wt:305 lbs Class:2013 (Junior College - Dec Grad) Hutchinson, CC Notable Offers: Too many to list
I saw the film on this guy ... he's quick as hell off the ball but that's against JUCO talent. Good speed for that size though.
Yeah, I think he would be a solid addition. My only concern is who we're battling to get him. The list is long and formidable.
Rodney Garner from GA is after this kid ... it's going to be a tall order to out recruit them. Only thing we have to offer is immediate playing time but a JUCO transfer most always plays immediately no matter where they go so that's a wash. Probably won't get him.
Staley is gone with the rest. Toby is recovering from a knee injury, no? Do you take a juco with an inury?
Depends on what kind of injury and how long it takes him to get back. But yes, I do believe he was injured. I know there's a picture of him on crutches on the rivals page.
He's supposedly leaning towards UGA right now (from ESPN 12/10/12) Juco DT Toby Johnson's visit puts Georgia on top - ESPN He's likely to redshirt no matter where he goes which isn't a bad thing to me. I know you typically want JUCO's to come in right away but as we've seen that doesn't always work out.
Visiting Auburn this wknd. Starkville next. Wouldn't surprise me if TJ commits to Auburn who already have one former HCC teammate EE and two, including former commit Ben Bradley, committed.
