The Longhorn staff has been heavily pursuing several defensive back targets on the West Coast and looks like their efforts could soon be rewarded.
Four star Pasadena (CA) John Muir cornerback Jamier Johnson announced back in April that he had narrowed his list of schools down to seven and the Longhorns were among the finalists.
Not long after that Johnson announced a decision date for July 3rd and Oregon was reportedly the front runner to earn his commitment come decision day. With Johnson unable to make a trip to Austin due to the extended dead period things were not trending in favor of the Longhorns.
