JOHNSON NO LONGER SET FOR OSU

Oklahoma State’s recruiting class got a little lighter. The Cowboys, which signed elite Texas forward LeBryan Nash in November, also were excited to have big-time juco BF Karron Johnson on board as well. Unfortunately for OSU, however, Johnson now will be headed elsewhere.

The decision didn’t come as a total surprise. Johnson has been a nomad throughout his career, and during the late fall he was dismissed from Midland (Texas) JC. He remained in school with the hopes of becoming eligible for the Cowboys during the 2011-12 season, but Travis Ford and his program were forced to cut ties.

Johnson, a North Carolina native, is a strong, aggressive and highly athletic forward who has professional potential if he ever is able to stabilize his situation and make it to the D-I level.
