Wide receiver Antonio Johnson of Oklahoma City, OK and cornerback Keion Payne of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. joins Troy football team after spending the 2012 season at Hutchinson Community College. Payne, who was a four-star prospect out of high school, played at Miami for two seasons before transferring to Hutchinson to continue his college career. It is unknown at this time how much of eligibility Payne has left.
