Miami and coach Mario Cristobal have just secured another experienced wide receiver from the transfer portal, as Cincinnati slot receiver Tony Johnson has committed to the team.

Tony is a three-star transfer portal wide receiver. Although he was not rated out of high school, he hails from Ocala, Florida, which is about five hours away from Miami's campus in Coral Gables.

Tony is a 5-foot-11, 185-pound receiver who recorded 48 receptions for 449 yards last season. Johnson was a key player for Cincinnati during his lone season with the program, having transferred from FAU last year.

During his time at FAU, he recorded a total of 669 receiving yards over two years, catching 60 passes and scoring seven touchdowns.

Tony now joins a huge transfer portal class by Mario Cristobal.

Welcome to the family.

Certainly hope not. At least give us a normal P4 caliber player

You miss the question mark at the end of my sentence? That would indicate I was asking a question, not making a comparison.

A question based off dmoneys description to which I was responding. Him being veteran depth that wont really play unless injury.
