April 20th,2021 interview after Spring practice #9:

C.J. JOHNSON
Q: Despite being somewhat limited this spring, what have you worked on the most and how would assess your development and growth this offseason?

A: Overall, I really worked on being a better teammate. Being injured really stopped me from doing the physical stuff, so I tried to do it mentally.

Q: Individually, you've already surpassed 1,300 career receiving yards in just two years, but what are some of your team-oriented goals for 2021?
A: We are trying to go to the championship game and go to a bowl game. Having 1,300 yards or whatever does not mean anything if you do not go to a bowl game.

Q: Since your All-America season as a freshman, you don't sneak up on anyone - how do you handle double-coverage and all the "extra" attention you get from opponent corners?
A: I try to not pay too much attention to it because I know that if I am doubled then someone else is open. So, I just try and work and get my teammates open. Once they cannot double anymore, it is over.

Q: You had many options after playing at nearby D.H. Conley, so what attracted you to ECU and why did you decide to stay home?
A: Like you said, it is home. I would not want to be anywhere else honestly. I made a really good relationships with the coaching staff.

Q: On a related note, you've mentioned that former Pirates Dwayne Harris and Justin Hardy were your favorite players growing up - what were some of the things about their craft you liked?
A: I mean, it was their work ethic. I came to multiple practices with Justin Hardy and Dwayne Harris and watched their practices and habits. They are just a different breed and they have pushed me.

Q: What are your plans after football as a communication major?
A: If football does not work out, I want to be a sports commentator or something in that field.

Looks like Jack Bowler grad transfer lineman from Holy Cross has added University of Richmond '22 to his twitter page @jackbowler70. As a high school senior Jack was chosen to play in the North Carolina Shrine Bowl, I think was 3 star rated, committed to UR then switched late to Holy Cross. He has had a very nice career there, 3 year starter, all league as a junior but not last year I don't think. Has played both center and guard. Was a beast in high school. Outstanding young man, obviously talented player. Holy Cross listed him as 6'3 295.

Jack originally verballed to Holy Cross and then surprisingly signed an NLI with UR.Upon signing a UR NLI we soon learned that the NLI became undone and subsequently signed an NLI with Holy Cross.

Seem like good pick-ups in the transfer portal. Would really be nice if both the punting improved and we could nab a few more kids from De LaSalle
