    IU football: Cornerback Jamier Johnson is no longer with the program

    Indiana loaded up at cornerback during the offseason via the transfer portal.

    That led to questions since both starters were ostensibly returning from the 2024 College Football Playoff team.

    Some degree of clarity arrived when Indiana updated their online roster on Wednesday.  Cornerback Jamier Johnson is no longer listed as a member of the team.

    A senior from California, Johnson is no longer with the program, a source confirmed to The Daily Hoosier.

    Johnson started the 12 games he was available in 2024 for the 11-2 Hoosiers.  He had 35 tackles, three pass breakups and an interception.

    Johnson transferred to IU from Texas ahead of the 2023 season.  He dealt with injuries and missed a substantial portion of the 2023 season with Indiana, playing just 77 snaps.

    Indiana added Pitt starting corner Ryland Gandy and Northern Illinois starter Amariyun Knighten via the transfer portal over the last two months.  The Hoosiers also return Jamari Sharpe, who played in place of Johnson in the win over Purdue, and a significant portion of the Notre Dame game.  Sharpe played in nine games and saw 234 snaps for the Hoosiers in 2024.

    All three of Gandy, Knighten and Sharpe appear to be the contenders to compete for the starting cornerback role opposite All-American D’Angelo Ponds.

    Redshirt freshmen Dontrae Henderson and Josh Philostin, and true freshmen Seaonta Stewart, Jaylen Bell, and Zacharey Smith will also compete for roles in 2025.
