Reports are coming out that Arkansas is targeting FSU running backs coach David Johnson to be the running backs coach in Fayetteville.
Johnson has been with Florida State since Mike Norvell arrived in 2020 and is one of the coach's most loyal soldiers. He is also the recruiting coordinator for the Seminoles. There is a relationship between Johnson and Arkansas head coach Ryan Silverfield, as both were on Mike Norvell's staff at Memphis in 2016 and 2017. Silverfield was the offensive line coach and running game coordinator while Johnson coached wide receivers and passing game coordinator.
