Another former Cowboy has found a home in the Big 12, at least as it will look next season.
Outgoing freshman wide receiver Stephon Johnson Jr. announced Tuesday that he is headed to Houston to play for the Cougars under former OSU offensive coordinator and WVU head coach Dana Holgorsen. Houston is set to join the Big 12 next season.
Johnson was a pleasant surprise for the Cowboys in 2022. As a true freshman, he recorded 17 catches for 273 yards and two touchdowns. He was a big play waiting to happen, and he showed that in his finale with an 84-yard touchdown against Wisconsin in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl.
