Pulling Johnson out of Atlantic in Delray Beach, Florida would be a huge get for the staff at the end of the recruiting cycle. Given the competition, I'm not holding my breath.

Stranger things have happened, we might have a chance...
His coach may be an ally!
Just in case anyone is like me and said who?

6'5", 225lb DE. Paging Dadi Nicholas.
He has a weird offer list:
Florida Atlantic
Florida St.
Illinois
Kentucky
LSU*
Miami (FL)
Michigan
Minnesota
South Carolina
Virginia Tech
That's 3 SEC schools including USCe, FSU and VT, Michigan. 4 pretty high end schools, but none of the other high end schools around the country are looking at him. Weird. Maybe a late bloomer. Has the size to be a great get. Could play TE.
* LSU doesn't show an offer but it is on the list. Does anyone know why Rivals shows a school that has not officially tendered an offer on the guy's 'College Choices' list?
Leg because I almost got hysterical about the TE joke, but then I realized I might be lashing out, not having had my coffee yet.
FSU: is pretty full at DE
daU: is a dumpster fire of (no) fan support/coach that will be pushed outta there within 4 years.
Michigan: may be the second biggest threat, however, have they hired a coach yet?
USCe: biggest threat (SEC competition, home of a respectable defensive coord. (CLOWNey went there and was pretty successful)
I'm not sure how the Pack factor in here but they're the real sleepers (maybe a family ties thing there)
Michigan hired Harbaugh. Likely to be the biggest hire in college football this year. Proven college and NFL success. I suspect Michigan will be on the serious upswing soon.
I hope he was being sarcastic as the Michagan version of the campus emporium is now selling both Harbaughs jersey AND a michigan version of his khakis.
I hope he was joking.
That would explain why one of the Michigan forums had Harbaugh at the top shimmering and sparkling. Joking? not so much as not paying attention to not-VT sports news.
That is some serious under-rock living.
Delray Beach?
Sign that Guy!!!!!
Isn't Luther Maddy from Delray Beach?
Isn't Luther Maddy from Delray Beach?
Also Dadi, Mark Leal, Brandon Flowers, and David Clowney all went to Atlantic High
Hosley too wasn't he?
Yep, same HS at least.
You are correct sir Hosley as well
Ryan S Clark needs to learn how to count...
1) #GoBlue (Michigan)
2) #Noles (FSU)
3) #Canes (Miami)
4) #Hokies (Virginia MFin Tech)
5) #Wolfpack (NC State)
To be fair, Johnson listed McChicken, da U, the Criminoles and the Good Guys. It's the coach who is saying the Wolfpack isn't out of it.
McChicken - Nice!
When i saw McChicken I thought South Carolina
To be fair, the #Wolfpack is credited to his coach, where the implication is that the first 4 are from Shelton himself.
At least that's how I read it.
Edit:
Bah, silly not refreshed page...18 minutes...
fingers crossed
Interesting that Michigan's offer came yesterday. Talk about late in the game, though Michigan only has 6 commits at this point, so they have scholarships to spare, I imagine.
we all need a big johnson to win more
A big Johnson would complement our Fullwood!
Yeah, especially now that we're down a Wang.
We won't really lose another DE battle to FSU, right? There was already Taylor and sweat I believe. I'd hope at some point guys would choose the school where they'll get some playing time
