Get to know: DB commitment RJ Johnson

Arkansas defensive back commitment RJ Johnson is a big fan of Razorbacks cornerbacks coach Dominique Bowman, but not of snakes or Brussels sprouts.

He became Arkansas’ 15th pledge on June 25 after officially visiting Fayetteville the week before.

Johnson, 6-2, 200, of Atlanta (Ga.) Eagle’s Landing Christian, picked the Razorbacks over offers from Florida, LSU, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Ole Miss, South Carolina and other schools.

Nickname: RJ

Favorite thing about playing DB: Being able to take away opposing teams' best WR

Coach Bowman is: A phenomenal teacher and leader who’s passionate and knows a lot about the game

Funniest football moment: On the field, it’s business

If I couldn't play football, I would want to star in: Basketball

My mom is always on me to: Be the best person on and off the field.
