Crystal ball from Brandon Huffman: Missouri QB Gabarri Johnson is set to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal. The Tacoma (Wash.) Lincoln product signed with Missouri last December and redshirted this season for the Cotton Bowl-bound Tigers. He had originally committed to Missouri when Bush Hamdan was the offensive coordinator, but Hamdan eventually left to return to his alma mater, Boise State, to be the offensive coordinator. Kirby Moore, like Johnson, a Washington native, was hired as the Missouri offensive coordinator and the Tigers ended up in a New Years Six bowl after a 10-2 season. Johnson will likely head back to the West Coast and a school to keep a close eye on for him is Oregon State. With the Beavers losing their top two quarterbacks, DJ Uiagalelei and Aidan Chiles, to the portal, they're in need of depth. New offensive coordinator Ryan Gunderson had recruited Johnson when he was at UCLA though the Bruins never pulled the trigger on the offer but Gunderson was high on Johnson and the two could eventually end up together in Corvallis. Johnson was a four-star on 247Sports in the 2023 rankings, checking in as the No. 22 quarterback nationally and the No. 6 prospect in the state of Washington in 2023. /photo/1

Could definitely be a good get. He’s a lil short for a qb at 6’ but looks like he could run all over everybody on the schedule.

I think he's under 6' w/o a helmet on. HS film showed good skills; very mobile, live arm, accurate. Could be a sleeper in the portal given his size.

Malik Murphy from Texas is confirmed to be visiting us as well.
Both OSU and UCLA recruited him last year, Gundy is back on him again.

We maybe just don't want to hire Johnson as a coach later on if he comes here and QBs us to unprecedented success. 😏

His offer list out of HS is impressive, Utah, Oregon, UW, Missouri, Arkansas, OSU and others. On the Missouri site he is listed at 5’10”. Considered dual threat and having 4 years of eligibility left would be big upsides

Huffman gave the Beavers a crystal ball with a strength of 6 which normally means Johnson is a lock. According to one Social Media GM, this would be a really big commitment for OSU.

Johnson looks like a really good get if this proves to be accurate. Not really worried about his height...ability to get out and hurt defenses with the run is huge nowadays, assuming that there's accurate passing in the mix as well. Seen Murphy play for Texas when starter went down. He would be a really strong add as well. Be incredible if both committed but super happy with Johnson.
