UMass Tight End Transfer Josiah Johnson Commits to Oklahoma State

The first wave of Oklahoma State portal entries was met with a wave of players the Cowboys’ coaching staff took out of the portal. After a handful of Cowboys entered the portal this week, history might repeat itself.

UMass tight end transfer Josiah Johnson committed to Oklahoma State on Thursday night. A 6-foot-5, 235-pound tight end from Jacksonville, Florida, Johnson caught 24 passes for 163 yards for the Minutemen in 2022 as a redshirt junior. In 2021, Johnson caught 11 passes for 115 yards and a trio of touchdowns.

The addition is good news for the Pokes who lost four players to the transfer portal this week: John Paul Richardson, Bryson Green, Samuela Tuihalamaka and Stephon Johnson Jr.
