Michigan Wants Will Johnson to Hold Off Decision Until He Builds Relationship With New Staff

“We just don't wanna push it,” Deon Johnson, the father of Michigan’s top-ranked prospect in the 2022 class, told Eleven Warriors.

Johnson’s timeline for full recovery from the ankle sprain is mid-February, as he should be fully good to go by then. We could be looking at a similar timeline for Johnson’s college decision, but that remains much more shrouded in a bit of mystery as a not-pushing-it mindset has emerged for the five-star cornerback.

As we touched on earlier this week, Johnson has unofficially cut his top five down to three – Ohio State, USC and Michigan – with Oklahoma and Arizona State not being looked at as seriously as they once were.
