But on Saturday, she posted cryptic messages on social media about her possibly leaving. With the college basketball world going into a frenzy over Flau'jae's potential departure, analyst Robin Lundberg has since given his two cents on the matter in his latest YouTube video on Sunday.

"The transfer portal and social media are a good combination for confusion, right. Flau'jae Johnson posted on social media, '4 out,' and people are wondering, 'What exactly does that mean?,' because she had previously said she was not going into WNBA Draft. So, the assumption is she's returning to LSU," he said. (0:00)

"She seems to have a great relationship with Kim Mulkey. But when Flau'jae teases a major announcement on social media, fans are like, 'What's going on?,' when that said announcement also has a four out message next to it, and she talks how great LSU has been for her. Now, I full expect Flau'jae to return to LSU," Lundberg added.

Lundberg then reassured the LSU faithful that he doesn't think the incoming senior is leaving the program but is looking to gain attention going for something else.

"I don't think she is transferring or anything like that. But, it felt like the post was a little bit purposefully cryptic in order to gain maximum attention for whatever said major announcement is," he explained. (0:41)

In her third stint with the Kim Mulkey-coached squad, Johnson averaged 18.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.7 steals per contest.

In his most recent YouTube video on Sunday, Robin Lundberg discussed the cryptic Flau'jae Johnson posts. Lundberg concluded his discussion by asserting that Johnson is doing this purely for an off-court announcement.

"In this case, I think Flau'jae is just showcasing her abilities as a promoter, getting the attention around her for whatever said major announcement will be. But, judging from her previous comments, I don't know. But judging from her previous comments, it doesn't mean she's planning to leave LSU," Lundberg explained.(4:30)

Lundberg turned out to be correct as Johnson announced on Sunday that she will be touring with American rapper BossMan Dlow throughout the month of April.

Johnson will be in Boston on April 13; Toronto on April 15; Denver on April 19; and Jacksonville on April 26.
