Who would you rather have/ take??? Ford, Puka or Johnson?

Post by jimmy12 »

I can only see them taking one....unless we see more than one transfer.

Juwan Johnson (Grad Transfer) : https://247sports.com/Player/Juwan-Johnson-31894/

Puka Nacua: https://247sports.com/Player/Puka-Nacua-46039709/

Kyle Ford: https://247sports.com/Player/Kyle-Ford-46037885/

I think I am on the Puka train. He is really fast and runs great routes.

What do people think? There is likely a choice coming....

Puka or Ford. Johnson would only be here for a short time and he already has questionable hands, which is the last thing we need more of on this team.

I’d take Ford every day of the week.

Both Puka and Johnson would probably be more immediate help, because of Ford’s ACL tear. But Ford looked like an NFL WR while playing some of the hardest competition in HS. I would be pretty happy with any of the three although the HS kids are a better option with 4 years to play.

Puka or Ford. If we could only take 2, I would easily take both of them over Johnson. I've heard Johnson's hands are really really bad.

Puka’s TD catch in the end zone yesterday was unbelievable. It was an NFL catch.

One of the 247 writers said yesterday that you could make the case that Puka is USCs best WR commit. Being able to play immediately would be big for us, so I’d say Puka.

There are too many 2019 recruits visiting to believe the coaches aren't going to take more players.

Lol I can’t even believe Johnson is in this “who would you rather” scenario.. it’s like having a hat for Bama, Clemson, and Oregon St on the table

I don't follow. This Johnson : https://247sports.com/Player/Juwan-John ... ool-52053/

Who is now 225 lbs.

Are you thinking Johnny Johnson?

Most people are basing this on potential and catching ability, both of which Ford and Nacua show/have while Johnson is not quite at that same level.
