Although Sark has done a better job of recognizing and utilizing his talents than Herman, his talents were still woefully underutilized during his time at UT. Hopefully he can make his mark in the NFL. If given the chance, he surely will.

He averaged 8 carries per game at Texas over 4 seasons and will still finish #18 in rushing yardage in Texas history. If Johnson had averaged just 4 more carries per game, he had a shot at #6 all-time. Maybe #5. He should have started ahead of Ingram in both his freshman and sophomore years. And he should have gotten more touches the past 2 seasons. To really illustrate how he was underused, he had 2 pass attempts in 4 years. As a long time UT fan, I remain disappointed in how they often underutilize and underdevelop good high school players. I think RJ will translation to be a very good NFL back. And while Robinson was the featured back in both the media and on the field the last 2 years, he’s likely to be mush less effective in the NFL and more prone to injury than Johnson.

It’s beyond my comprehension how you could have the passing talent of an RJ and have two different coaching staffs virtually ignore this weapon at the running back position for 4 years.
