3-star JUCO OLB Caleb Johnson signs NLI with Texas

The Texas Longhorns have officially landed the heir apparent to Gary Johnson by securing the pledge of another speedy linebacker from a junior college, as Fullerton College product Caleb Johnson signed to head coach Tom Herman’s program on Wednesday after committing on Monday over a final group featuring Oregon, Colorado, and Arkansas.

Despite the delay in his decision, Johnson had been trending to Texas for quite some time.

A former Iowa State pledge, the 6’1, 215-pounder originally committed to the Cyclones in July, but kept his options open, making plans to visit Arkansas for an official visit in late October, and eventually decommitting from Matt Campbell’s ball club in mid-October.
