Greg Biggins has been hearing for months that Johnson will go to Cal....

We'll see.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

We are taking two more receivers fyi..
Two more WRs? After Stanford? So three altogether? Whoa...

I hope we get two good ones!

Yes that is correct. I hope we get TJ and Mickens, that would be an incredible receiver class. It's crazy to think that if we get both of those guys that this year's recruiting class at receiver might be more highly touted than last season's.

When he commits to the Ducks & cancels the Cal visit - we will be the last visit. ;)

Even if he's been a silent to cal for a few months he still likes us and wants to visit us.....getting guys to visit is the hardest part.

...Just watched his highlights and he looks like a rich man's Josh Huff. I think we would find ways to get him the ball and he would excel here. If he goes to TCU that's fine, if he goes to Cal then what the heck

I think this little Cal fad will pass. If you recall this week a few years ago, it seemed duck fans were in for a big weekend with Tajh Boyd, Bryce McNeal, and others were supposedly going to choose Oregon during the all star game. Well that didn't quite pan out, did it? It seems Cal has landed at least Shaq Thompson and Jordan Payton, but whatever. We all knew Shaq'd end up there in the end. I think sometimes these kids just get a little caught up in the moment.

"Jan 6, 2012 - Thomas Johnson, one of the top receivers in the country, has decommitted from the Texas Longhorns, per Burnt Orange Nation. Johnson stars for Dallas Skyline and is widely considered one of the top ten receivers in the country. Johnson had been committed to Texas since February 21st of 2011."

"The real story here seems to be Oregon. Rumors swirled all week during the Under Armour All-America game that Johnson wanted to visit Oregon. He confirmed those rumors earlier in the week."

"Eberts' tweets also suggests that Johnson will not recommit to Texas, though SB Nation has been unable to confirm that."

From our old buddy, Geez Shuttlesworth, so you know it has to be true... ;)

One other note, the fact that Cal is purportedly on the radar for Johnson is a result of TJ promising to visit Berkley with his buddy Samples this summer, AFTER SIGNING DAY. Nothing to see here, in our opinion. We’ll let you know if circumstances change
Multiple reports that Skyline WR Thomas Johnson has de-committed from Texas. Will visit Oregon, Cal, TCU. #hookem
