This is a true fact that people who live in glass houses. shouldn't throw rocks. I wish this young man peace and time to heal from the emotional stress that caused him and his family members team mates and true friends. Looking forward to seeing him living his dream on the field.

I am proud of Johnson for not getting scared and for fighting for the truth. I have been following this and as a mother of 4 boys, it terrifies me that they may someday have to endure something as tragic as this. If I was a scout, or U of M Grizzlies, I would want this boy on my team. He is a fighter, goes after what is right, doesn't give up, holds his head high, continued with his education through all of this and came out a winner. Very proud of you Jordan!
