Javonte Johnson may get one more game in the Pit, after all.
Just not as a Lobo.
The two-year UNM starter and three-year Lobo announced on Sunday night he would be joining friend Nique Clifford, who played the past three seasons for the Colorado Buffaloes, in both transferring to play the next two seasons for the Colorado State Rams.
Johnson is believed to be the first Lobo to transfer to another program in the same conference as UNM — certainly so in the Mountain West era, which began in the 1999-2000 season.
Johnson and Clifford were both high school stars in Colorado Springs and played on the same club team together in the offseason.
