The Texas Longhorns have scored a recruiting victory in the form of JUCO transfer Gary Johnson. Johnson, who is one of the highest-rated junior college players in the country, announced that he is committed to Texas Football.
Johnson will bring incredible versatility to the Longhorns. At Dodge City Community College in Kansas, Johnson thrived as a middle linebacker who took over games.
Johnson’s tape shows a player who is fundamentally sound, quickly locates the ball, makes clean tackles, and can make game-changing plays. He faced lesser talent at the JUCO level, but he should be a great fit against Big 12 offenses.
