  Looks good as a running back but a fumbled snap and whatever the hell that “pass” was

  I am excited that we will have time to work on him. I think we can be special, and if it ends up not working at QB, he could be a great Covey/Matthews type. I think he can be a really good QB still though, just needs time.

    If he commits to staying at Utah and working hard, Johnson can be incredibly special. He has all of the physical gifts in the world. Just needs to mature football wise.

  He is a freshman and his first game with real experience. Yes, he made some mistakes. But, now he has some experience that will give him confidence.

  He can’t throw. And incredible runner, but that makes us one dimensional. Barnes was the far better QB tonight.

  I’ll take Johnson over those two absolute mistake upperclassmen transfers 11 times out of 10 and we gave them a few games each.
  
  Ya he ain’t ready yet but we also just big brothered Florida. He Won’t be against that type of size and speed many times again this year, if ever.

  It feels like Utah’s Oline looks better running an option type rush. That is the concerning thing. It looked weird but weird managed to confuse Florida enough.
  
  Florida defense had like 2-3 guys that looked good. They are going to have a long season.
