The Michigan Wolverines’ special teams unit has been consistently ranked near the top in the nation throughout the offseason. Other than the stellar punter/kicker duo in Brad Robbins and Jake Moody, unsung heroes like the subject of this edition of our outlook series, defensive back Quinten Johnson, deserve their fair share of the credit, too.
The story so far
Johnson hails from Silver Springs, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C. He garnered blue-chip status as a four-star two-way athlete. He obtained offers from Penn State, Alabama and plenty of others. He took several unofficial visits to Alabama, Penn State and North Carolina before Michigan was able to get him on campus for an official visit and wrap up his commitment a week after the visit.
