With another year of eligibility remaining, fifth-year seniors Xavier Johnson, Palaie Gaoteote and Josh Proctor are all weighing their options for what comes next after 2022.
“It's definitely a consideration. It's something that, it's kind of a big decision,” Johnson said. “So I've been praying on it and I've been talking to my family about it, trying to just get their counsel, their input. So I couldn't say I'm 100% one way or another, currently. But that is something that me and Coach Day, especially Coach , talked about at length. So we're just trying to figure out, navigate those waters and see exactly where it leads.
“I think that their pitch is basically there's some more development to be had. And I would agree,” Johnson said. “I think it's always a good thing when I feel like I'm still getting better year by year. And so there's not like a plateau or I haven't felt like I've reached my ceiling. Sometimes that can be because of a place or sometimes it can be just because of your ability.
“There's definitely opportunity. And they are saying that there's an opportunity for me to have an impact, whatever capacity that may be.”Still, Day and Hartline seem to believe Johnson will have more chances to make plays next season. As for what position the multi-talented playmaker would spend more time at, Johnson said he’s comfortable at both wide receiver and running back, and believes Day and Hartline intend to work on expanding a role that could maximize his ability to do both.Xavier Johnson’s Perseverance Through Five-Year Career Has Enabled Him to Become a Valuable, Versatile Contributor for Ohio State
