I think Storm is a very good player and I think that most of you all are trying to tear down a child. Remember, he’s just a child. Cocky or not. He’s good. There’s no “problems” with him at school, I go to Loganville. I think I’d know if he got suspended or was skipping or such because there’s only one Storm Johnson in Loganville. If he got into trouble that would be all over the school in a second. From what I can see he’s not a bad kid..

Oh and if you’re reading this Storm, keep your head up

Storm don’t let theses haters get in your head. Attitude is the way you think. Your attitude is something other people can actually see.They can hear it in your voice. Positive attitudes always invite positive results. Negative attitudes always invite negative results.Show them you are the better person Storm.

Storm told GA to buzz off. GT was at H.S. too and recruited big OL Morgan Bailey. They saw Storm on same field. Storm wants OUT of state, Waay out. not in. Cause of MOM?????? What street do you get your word from? He did not even want to play Clarke Central in Athens because… it was in Athens.Hello? Yeww.
You need to get your word on a different street Bubba. He always wanted LSU then FSU then they just start falling in line. When he fixes his few issues, you will see him at a game against GA coming soon to a stadium near you, I am sure of it.

I’M CALLING ALL BULLDOGS TO CALL THE BULLDAWG RECRUITERS TO OFFER THIS KID A SCHOLARSHIP. Word on the street is that he wants to play in the SEC, but he wants to stay close to home for his mother. kentucky is not close to home. HELLO,if you offer he will come; we can always use another good back and i think LSU KNOWS TALENT!!!!

There are plenty of 4 and 5 star running backs that never see the field on Saturday in college. Big programs are loaded with them. Every kid thinks he is the man, not looking at the big picture. The ego head takes over the practical head.

Storm is the best RB in the state, just ask his daddy. Best of luck packaging your kid to a major player, all that excess baggage won’t make it an easy sell.

Red Flags abound with this kid! An awful lot of “me” coming out. No one likes to hear a player blaming refs, teammates, or coaches for a lack of production. But he’s young, hopefully he gets the right guidance.

He also has burden of a HUGE bullseye on his back when he enters a game. Storm and his father already know he has to be part of the team or things will go south. He wants to win. They all do.

Clarke officiating was questionable at times! The wrong times unfortunately. That creates more frustration in the boys and I am sure led to mistakes. ON both sides! I just want good football and Clarke was not it. It was a stressfull game.

I am sure Storm learned something. So did Clarke and Loganville. Now I have. Do not talk to any other parents, anywhere, about the team.

Chip: How about being about the team. Isn’t football a team sport? When Storm played at Buford it was the same thing, all about Storm. It’s all about the team and that’s why Buford has such a winning program. Everyone is working together as a team, not as an individual only caring about himself and blaming others in adverse situations.

I starting to like this kid Storm Johnson even more. ( What a cool running back name). Thanks to all you fans out there he will be a star on and off the field. SEC football is perfect for Storm. I hope you have that chance in college to play against LSU. Friday Night Lights in Georgia is alive and Storm Johnson you got to bring it, all your Georgia fan will be watching you.

Sounds to me like this kid might think about stats a little too much for me. If he wants to shine, maybe he needs to go to a school that doesn’t have alot of competition at running back. Most SEC teams recruit at least three top shelf running backs every year.

Storm didn’t blame the team for their penalties he directed the blame to “they called it” Sounds like referees to me. And did you not see one of the penalties came because Clark Central was sneeking hits on Storm under the pile and his team mates were taking up for him. Sounds they Loganville has a TEAM with a very good backfield.

How the hell do I get a # unavailable call about MY son and telling me about this story and crap. Whoever RUSMOMG, TheShow, Terminator, CMON and whomever else is out there, this story seems to be about Storm Johnson and ONLY storm Johnson. Yes, my kid goes to the Factory with BOO. So what. Storm did, but not with BOO. Was there a call, who cares. He is doing his best to keep his motivation up after going from “#1 to #2 then to #3″ (Thanks for that quick observation there RUSMOM, like it wasn’t already on his brain). I work every day to make sure he is working through it. The coach (Godfree) even thought he was going to quit after these changes happened. He didn’t. Now he is being rated against MYkell Wyatt on an AJC story about Storm? WHAT THE ****? Leave my son out of it and get a freakin life people! He has had enough sh** to deal with without adults(loosely used term here),weighing in that don’t even know him. Him and Mykell are friends and are looking forward to next year. Mykellis a great kid who LIVES in Loganville. He was here last year and he is BACK. So is his brother. Heck, Christiaan just got brothers cell phone when his broke. When Mykell came from Grayson and filled my sons spot for an after season 8th grade game due to Christiaan’s broken collarbone, we welcomed him. When Christiaan could not play entire freshman football season due to another serious health issue, he was friends with Mykell. AND for the record, it IS ChristiAAn, not ChristiAn. At least RUSfreakinMOMG started to get it correct. RUSS? Maybe after the phone call????? How do you get a # from a unavailable caller again? RUSS? I speak for my son, or he can speak, not you. Bitch about Storm or praise him, I do not care, its football. HE is Wes’s issue, not mine. Loganville’s already had 1 loss and there is other negative crap here that is being fixed. Isn’t that enough for one week? DROP IT!

It appears that Storm is all about Storm, and not a team player. He blames his teammates for him not getting what was it, 280 yards. He should have been patting them on the back for helping him get the 125 yards he did get. LSU does not need him and his questionable talent, and to whomever does sign him: BEWARE, EGO TO BE SATISFIED FIRST, THEN TEAM GOALS.

Just when I thought I was out. Terminator. This was all before that kid went back. Check me if I am wrong but this Mykell(?) kid came in or back after storm. I met Christian when Storm and Mykell were not there and this Mykell was the kid that went to Dekalb. So it was not a matter beating out Storm, that was not going to happen.I saw Ctorms Daddy and Christiaan daddy talking at the Factory way before all this. They seemed pretty upbeat. Mykell was not part of picture so there was no beating him out at the time. Christian went From # 1 to # 2 THEN to #3 at the hands of other people, desopite seeing him work his butt off. Can’t say whay he looks like in direct competiotion or to relative skills. JUST commenting on the GAMES I saw played in the name of manuevering after Bufrod cleared his locker for him. I don’t know who is better, Christiaan or this Mykell. Never met him. If Mykell ran 2000yds last year and Christian was JV. Then I would sure plan on Mykell. DUH! If he was there! If he was in Dekalb, I don’t think he would be in my line up do you? There was no beating Him out so the point is moot in reference to Storm and Christian. Sheesh!

Dang Show. Yeah I know who the kid is. Sorry, dogs hunting in another cluster. Saw this coming a mile away at combine in February. Is his dad pissed? probably. Asked. He just shrugged and said Oh well, next year right?! I just felt for his son. Met the boy. My son and his friends like him. Sucks for him thats all. Who wouldn’t feel for him a little. You? Who wishes that on a kid. Throw a nationally ranked player on a kid about to become the starting RB. Was some talk about him shopping to other school and dad said no. He is stuck there now. You are right though. Kid is now on bench. My son said he did not get any RB time on Friday. Just Storm amd #40. Never saw anything about #40 in the paper either. WHY? Is what it is. That’s over if Storm lives up to the hype. This is about Storm and team and Buford, not some junior who is back to JV status. That damage is done. That’s life. If Loganville CAN make Storm the positive team player that Buford could not, then he would even get the support of me too. Speaking of papers, what does “your jealousy is showing up in the Papers..LOL”mean? This is like the 4th post on this kid. Lets see what he does Friday and reconvene.

Storminator: I’m not just now finding out about this; I’m just now getting around to talking to the kid. I’ve been reading Internet chatter about it for a couple of weeks but I don’t just regurgitate rumor and innuendo. . . . Quick question: Who else are Storm and his dad supposed to be “all about?”

By: Terminator

Terminator — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 20:34:20 +0000

Ok so Storm took whose spot? Christian wasn’t going to beat out Mykell unless the coach wanted to highlight a specific c—- of player like Buford did.

By: Storminator

Storminator — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 19:44:09 +0000

His offer from LSU was rescinded over a month ago and I can’t beleive you are now just finding out. I guess Storm didn’t call you to tell you that news. It’s no doubt there is confusion in your reporting. Storm will say whatever it is that makes Storm look best whether it’s true or not. Look at his quote about his yardage last week. “I should have XXX yards, but they all got called back”…yada yada yada. The truth is Storm and his dad are all about Storm and you have to take what you are told with a grain of salt. I’ll be curious to see where he actually ends up. I’m sure the colleges are all fighting over him…just ask his dad.

RUSMOMG — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 18:55:06 +0000

Cmon. Never said he did not train there. I said he DOES NOT train there. He DID train with Justin. Not the same trainer the other kid HAS. obviously we are talking about that little slot back Christian(sp?). That phone call to Christians trainer had no purpose than mind games. adress that issue and not wether he was actually there. obviously we are both familiar with the situation locally. Loganville lost with Storm and Buford is still winning without him. How did the Buford RB fair stat wise. I will find out. Storm said he was there to help get Loganville to the dome. Buford warned Loganville he would tear the team apart. WHY? There was other schools that then knew that Christian kid was getting screwed by Storm coming in. his daddy said too bad, suck it up and no school shopping.Maybe he should have loved his kid as much as storms and let him shopp around.
No lies. Just want Storm to step it up as a team player. He is part of a team. Even for one semester (I know he went in in the spring to get legal, don’t call me out). It is not the “Loganvile Storm and ten guys on a field”. I wish Storm the best. I also wish Loganville the best. So should Storm while he is visiting there. Maybe there would be alot less negative crap out there on him. Including mine.I’m about negatived out.Personally, I want to know what Ian is up to. RUSMOMG out!

My understanding is that last years running back ( #40) moved back to Loganville where he was happy! it has been checked, re-checked and checked again to make sure that it was a legal move both for the living arrangements and the GSHA!!! So Rusmomg doesn’t know what he is talking about and it sounds like he might have a kid there that is now Warming the BENCH!!!! Sorry for the kid..

But Storm is a good running back and the back from last year that came back to loganville, together they can work hard, learn a lot and probably one of the best 1,2 punches in the state of GA in the half back position… They also have a great kid in front at the full back position opening up some big wholes with a big Loganville line..

the Problem is the plays have to work for the team at the right time and this team is a winner!!

Sorry Rusmomg!! Your jealousy is showing up in the Papers.. LOL!!

Go Loganville!
Storm and the Backup and the entire team working together to win a championship!! work together and play together as a team guys!!!

Spring game film? Ask his coach. He ran Storm behind JV line on purpose. Did not want a big showing from him. Clark-Central game? You have got to be kidding. This kid was awesome, but you haters just won’t give him any credit. He left Buford hi and dry, so he will continue to be dogged in Georgia, no wonder he wants to leave the state. What is the problem? no grade issues. no character issues. so the kid and his parents wanted him to play in a program where he would get the ball more than 8 times a game. some of you wish you had parents that cared that much to make sacrifices. and yes, I ‘ve been a Storm fan for years. this kid has special skills. AA ball to AAAA ball. he has made his point, he can carry a football. good, bad or indifferent, Storm is the man.
