Johnson, a 2017 four-star prospect, currently holds 50 offers according to his 247Sports player page, but it's four offers that are currently sticking out, a source near Johnson's recruitment tells 247Sports' Steve Lorenz.

The quartet of offers includes Alabama, Miami, Michigan and Oklahoma.

The source went on to say if pressed for any one of the four having an edge, they would likely point to the Tide and the Hurricanes

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. -- Tahj Capehart will cut his list of schools to ten next week and the nation's 40th-ranked wide receiver gave Scout the latest.

After receiving close to 30 scholarship offers, Tahj Capehart is planning to narrow his list of schools next week. According to the 5-foot-11, 185-pound Capehart, he's in contact with North Carolina, Maryland, Virginia Tech, Penn State, West Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama. Tennessee and Nebraska the most.

In regards to visits, the four-star playmaker will be at Alabama this weekend and head to Penn State on June 18. He'll also likely take trips to Tennessee, North Carolina and West Virginia this summer.

Speaking of Tua and the Elite 11:

REDONDO BEACH, Calif. -- The first day of on-field action for participants of the Elite 11 Finals was fairly basic. The camp was a lot of quarterback position drills that included throws to stationary targets. The live action does not start until Saturday. Regardless, 247Sports was able get a good look at how many of these prospects looked in their drops, mobility in and out of the pocket, accuracy and much more. Knowing the real test comes later in the weekend, we give you the top 11 performers based on day one's action.
