Been some great players to come out of Clinch County. They just never get the exposure playing in south georgia single A ball.

I think Clinch still holds the state record for least amount of rushing yards allowed in a 15 games season. I think they allowed only 110 yards or so all season a few years back. Pretty impressive even though it is single A ball.

UK's Fred Tiller is from Homerville. Johnson and a couple of his teammates visited UK weekend before last, and I imagine Johnson was high on the board at S for Kentucky.

Good get for the Gamecocks.

We knew about him, Pruitt offered him at FSU. Did not offer here and I'm not sure why, but I'd heard he had some grade concerns so we were probably slow-playing due to that and he didn't want to wait around.

Very good player and a great pickup, I'd guess he'll play CB.
