“I (can’t) thank the University of Michigan enough for the best four years someone could ask for,” Johns Jr. wrote. “The relationships and experiences I have had the opportunity to be a part of will never be forgotten.” Johns’ post concluded with “#VCU” and “#nevergiveup.”
This makes the second former Michigan player to transfer to VCU as G Zeb Jackson recently did the same.
From MLive:
“I think many people would think of it differently (than) me, but I think it was a very productive and successful four years here,” Johns said after Michigan’s final home game of the season on March 3, senior night. “No matter what, whether it was positive, whether it was negative, whether I wasn’t doing so good or whether I was doing good, I feel like I really learned a lot from my coaches, my team, and just a variety of different things that I never thought I would be able to say I learned.
“In my eyes, it was a really successful four years.”
During the 2021-22 season, Johns Jr. played in 31 games, averaging 3.2 points and two rebounds per contest.
We certainly wish Brandon the best of luck at VCU.

NFL Draft Betting: How Early Will the Top Edge Rushers Be Drafted?
There’s a fairly well-accepted adage that “the most valuable football positions are quarterback and anyone who can get to the quarterback.” We all know that the passing game — both on offense and defense — has become the premier phase of NFL play, so it makes sense that prospects who affect it should demand attention in the NFL Draft. Especially in an NFL prospect cycle with no clear-cut, superstar-to-be quarterbacks, the edge-rushing talent is the show in town for 2022 draftniks.
Edge rusher is also a position you should be paying attention to if you want to bet the NFL Draft this year. FanDuel Sportsbook has player draft position props available for a number of NFL prospects: they give an overall draft slot number and you can bet on whether that prospect will be selected “over” (later in the draft) or “under” (earlier) that pick.
All four edge rushers with draft slot props have lines suggesting they’ll be top-10 selections. Will the top picks be dominated by defensive ends, or will any of these elite edge players slip down the board in the 2022 NFL Draft?
