COLLEGE STATION Texas A&M freshman receiver Thomas Johnson has withdrawn from school, Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin said this afternoon.
Johnson disappeared for two days in mid-November. A&Ms police department had asked for help from the public in finding Johnson, who failed to show for an Aggies practice on the Monday following A&Ms 29-24 win at Alabama on Nov. 10. He was found in the wee hours of Nov. 15 near his high school, Dallas Skyline. Days later, Sumlin said Johnson was with his family.
Sumlin, in meeting with reporters this afternoon, said Johnson will mull his options moving forward options that might even include re-enrolling at A&M or perhaps transferring.
Johnson, one of the nations top recruits at his position a year ago, had 30 catches for 339 yards and a touchdown in Sumlins up-tempo offense this season. Johnson had three catches for 22 yards in the upset of the then-top-ranked Crimson Tide before disappearing two days later.
