Baylor adds commitment from rising Louisiana DL Alven Johnson

Baylor has landed a key piece to the puzzle from the Bayou State.

Baton Rouge Thrive (La.) defensive lineman Alven Johnson committed to the Bears on Wednesday.

He announced his decision via Twitter.

Johnson picked Baylor over an offer from UAB.

Johnson notched 42 tackles and 11 sacks as a junior.

At 6-foot-4, 250 pounds, Johnson is not ranked at this time.

Baylor now has four verbal commits in its 2020 recruiting class, which is ranked No. 7 in the Big 12.
