Part of me actually feels bad for Johntay.  

Clearly he's been so coddled in his life that there is no one who can talk any sense into him anymore.

It's too bad because anyone with an ounce of awareness can see that he's on the path to complete self-destruction.

What coach would want this guy in their locker room?  He doesn't have the production to outweigh the distraction.

The worst part is that, in his head, he thinks he's winning.

Sounds like a perfect aggy.

I’d actually not be surprised at all to learn that Kenny D passed on Johntay. Anybody who knows about him and what he has brought to the Valley would have guessed that would be his position on a kid like that.

Man, there’s not a great track record of success for the top rated WR in the state here recently. Demas, Earle, Stewart, Cook, and Hudson. Earle might be questionable but I think the next guy was a kid who now plays at SFA. I’ll never understand why anyone would think becoming a malcontent in the middle of the season is a wise choice even if you do have eyes on the portal. It looks even worse when the other two WRs in your class got zero burn last year, had much more reason to explore other options in the spring and summer, decided to stay, one literally added extra responsibilities at a brand new position to help the team with depth, and the other dude committed to filling the big shoes JWhitt left behind as a leader/glue guy.

I mean, I suppose somebody could’ve been in his ear saying his position coach is giving preferential treatment to a kid from his HS alma mater, but all you would need to refute that is film and first hand accounts of Moore’s habits and demeanor. If he’s thinking his talent exempts him from following that example, he better hope to God that other programs only look at his HS highlight reel and don’t bother to find out what he has done since then. He should also hope they don’t take a look at how Sark treated Maalik and other players who had to decide to enter the portal at the end of last year ahead of the CFP, and how he handled Juan Davis when he asked to return to the team. Seems to me like he is fair and makes his decisions based on merit.

If I was a coach, my response would be: “so, you played as a true freshman on CFP semifinalist, you were on the field in Tuscaloosa at critical moments in your second collegiate game, spent spring and fall camp at the top of the depth chart, got plenty of snaps to start the season, eventually got passed by two dudes who got far less handed to them, and you decided to just check the fuck out because you felt you were being treated unfairly? You didn’t appreciate the team taking three older players out of the portal, but you are asking us to bring you in ahead of the young guys we already have…and pay you handsomely to do so? The second to last relevant snap you have on film is you dropping a wide open TD in a one score game and laughing about it? You left a place with the most talented QB room in the country, where they just put three dudes at your position in the league, and you want us to believe your lack of success isn’t your own fault? Who is your advisor, again? Actually, it doesn’t matter. Thanks for your time.”

Johntay is the kind of wide receiver who makes defenders often drop their jaws watching his moves, while quarterbacks know they can drop a perfect pass into his hands without hesitation. Coaches drop everything to design plays around his speed and agility. He doesn’t just drop into coverage—he dominates it, creating separation in the blink of an eye. And when the pressure’s on? Johntay doesn’t drop the ball, even when facing tight double teams. For opponents, he's the player they wish would drop his intensity just once. But Johntay? He only drops records and defenders in his wake.

Did he tweet about all the drops he would've had against the aggy secondary?

He is such a weird dude. Went off on CJ Vogel for some reason. Maybe CJ criticized him in the past? It won't surprise me if he is badmouthing us to the recruits who are on the fence.
