This Gamecocks veteran making progress because ‘he’s actually listening’

There’s something different about Brad Johnson entering his third year on South Carolina’s football team.

“It’s been good because he’s actually listening to some of the things I have said,” Gamecocks outside linebackers/buck coach Mike Peterson said. “I don’t think early on he was listening.”

Johnson, a 6-foot-2, 245-pound junior, is working at the buck position along with D.J. Wonnum and freshman Rodricus Fitten this spring.

“He’s one of the guys in the group that has taken a really big leap,” Peterson said. “Right now, he has taken a big leap.”
