Former Clemson 5-Star QB Transferring Back to Program

Former five-star recruit Hunter Johnson will transfer to Clemson for the 2022 season, he told 247Sports.

Johnson, 24, was initially a 5-star recruit in 2017, when he committed to Clemson. He played one season with the Tigers before transferring to Northwestern.
