Flau'Jae Johnson speaks on LSU teammates entering the transfer portal

Flau’Jae Johnson was honest about the transfer portal movement out of LSU ahead of the 2025-26 season. Johnson has opted to return for one final collegiate season with the Tigers.

She opened up about her emotions regarding the program’s offseason transitions during an episode of her podcast, "Best of Both Worlds," on April 10.

“When my teammates are going into the portal, I don’t know how to feel,” Johnson said. “It will be hard for me. I don’t know how to feel when my teammates go in the portal.”

Johnson admitted that most of the time, she was caught off guard by her teammates' decision.

“Yeah, when it drops, you kind of just find out,” Johnson said. “You just see them one day and then they are in the portal.”

The LSU Tigers have seen players exit through the NCAA transfer portal. Forward Sa’Myah Smith, who was instrumental during the Tigers' NCAA Tournament run with back-to-back double-doubles, has moved. Joining her are junior guard Last-Tear Poa and Aalyah Del Rosario.

Adding to the departures, star forward Aneesah Morrow declared for the 2025 WNBA Draft and was selected by the Connecticut Sun as the seventh overall pick.

On the bright side, the Tigers secured the commitment of former Notre Dame forward Kate Koval, a highly rated recruit from the 2024 class. She averaged 5.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and a team-high 1.7 blocks while shooting 45.1% as a freshman.
