Here’s the clip. And yes, it’s graphic …

The incident occurred at a bar near the Florida State campus on June 24. Johnson was charged with misdemeanor battery in relation to the incident and turned himself into police a week later. Upon being arrested, he was suspended indefinitely from the team.
In the clip, the Johnson is seeing trying to muscle his way to the bar. The woman tries to block him with her knee and later attempts to throw a punch at him after he grabbed her arm. That’s when he punched her in the face.
Johnson was “Mr. Football” in Florida during his senior season at First Coast High School in Jacksonville, Florida – throwing for 3,710 yards and 47 touchdowns. The 6-foot-0, 177-pound signal-caller was one of three quarterbacks vying to replace 2013 Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston – who was the No. 1 selection of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in this year’s NFL Draft.
An early enrollee, he completed eight of eleven passes for 155 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Florida State’s spring game.
“De’Andre is extremely embarrassed by this situation and would like to express his heartfelt apologies to everyone, including those who were directly affected, Coach (Jimbo) Fisher and his teammates, the entire Florida State University community, as well as his family and friends,” a statement from Johnson’s attorney read.
The Seminoles – who finished last year ranked No. 5 in the country – open their 2015 season on September 5 against Texas State.

Real good role model…not.
He is just following the lead of many pro athletes. He should be kicked off the team permanently…period.
No excuse for hitting a woman, any woman, anytime, anyplace!
He’s toast. FSU can’t keep him, UF won’t take him. Neither will anyone else in the SEC. Maybe Clemson? If he was trying to follow the lead of the last QB he’d have punched her, then raped her.
Clemson appears to be fairly DEEP in the QB department. I would guess that Spurrier could use him a lot more than Clemson.
Then again, maybe a couple of years in a Florida State Prison would work out.
He could then transfer to USCe, where he’ll beat the rape victim’s child to death, then get depressed and blow his head off.
I think you were talking about blowing, which is what your mom did to those big black cocks before taking them up her ass
The Florida State “Criminoles” as a UF-origin buddy used to call them.
Actually, as a Gator I’m sad to report that we have them beat, barely, but still beat in the criminality department. Florida, the state, has complete access to records so other NCAA teams could be worse but it can’t be proven.
It was Everette Golson’s job anyway. Doesn’t matter. NOBODY beats THE Ohio State University for a decade. Gonna be fun watching the 3 NFL qb’s on Saturday this fall at THE Ohio State University.
Forgot to add.
LMAO!!!!!!!
LMAO!!!!!!!
LMAO!!!!!!
Ohio State learned to stay the hell away from USC and Clemson.
Typical liberal.Living in the PAST just praying a Stalin,Mao or Castro type will appear to take us back to the glory days of Communism.
Living in the past? They’ve never beaten either team. You’re living in a present that doesn’t exist and a future that may take decades to come.
You dumb fuckers can’t even keep a flag up-much less play football!
What does that say about Ohio losing to both teams, twice? No wins?
THE The Ohio State, their BoT added another “the” to the front of their name during the off season
He should be embarrassed that he punches like a girl & still can’t even knock one down.
Classy. Just like FL State.
Free Seafood University no more, now it is Female Suckerpuncher University.
What? I don’t see the problem.
BREAKING: Disgraced FSU QB De’Andre Johnson transferring to Clemson, stating, “FSU’s intolerance to beating women discourages freedom of expression. I want to attend a college where I can express myself by beating the crap out of women without ramifications, and no place is more appropriate for that than Clemson.”
I guess he wasn’t as good of a quarterback as Winston. At FSU a good QB can get away with rape and larceny. This guy couldn’t even get away with assault.
Hell I just missed 1/2 of a game when I done dat shit. He be all gud. He should have used a towel rod, and throwned her down the apartment stairz. They aint got no cameras there. rookie mistake
Black lives mater
What’s wrong with that? I’d still start him if I had a job
Jes’ like Deddy!
Glad he was a black quarterback who hit a white girl…whew, close .
Had it been a white player, Sharpton, Jackson, et al. would have descended, Lynch, Holder and Obama would have sent in the Justice Dept. It would have been a hate crime, the town would have burned, looting would have been the order of the day, violence and anarchy would have ensued.
Sharpton would have begun a chant of Black Athletic careers matter and Obama , Holder and Lynch would have called the Seminole name racist and demanded they change their name to the Turd Maggots!
Curious how the bar help and MALE customers failed to give her any assistance. That crumbum joint is off my list. Can’t really tell if those are blood spots on the bar as she leaves, but if so it didn’t bother the broad in the hat.
