Chris Johnson, Jr. commits to Canes

Dec 11, 2022

Elite speedster out of Fort Lauderdale commits to the Canes. State champion in the 100M (10.45) and 200M (20.73).

Johnson had a huge season for Dillard, including explosive TDs against arguably the two best teams in the country in Chaminade and Central. He will replace Rooster as the big-play threat in Miami’s backfield.

I feel like people have almost forgotten about CJ since everyone was appropriately focused on Mark Fletcher. This is another good running back class, similar to Chaney and Rooster. Let’s hope the long term returns are better. But Chaney and Rooster were pretty exciting as freshmen. One can’t stay healthy and the other isn’t disciplined enough in his work habits.

This kids speed is different than rooster and Chaney. He shoots out a canon and changes speeds. He's going to be amazing

We’ve got some backs with some amazing potential, and this kid is super talented.

Just get him an OL, and it’s over.

Disclaimer: not comparing their skills because Alien was on another planet, but I haven't seen a kid change direction so subtly and quickly without losing acceleration since Hester.

He has that Cook burst where that first step is fifth gear but he run calm sees it then sets everything up. If he had the body type he would be a 5 star for sure

Yea he has everything else speed agility contact balance, I just don't think he will ever be more then 190 or 195.

He will make an instant impact if used creatively.

Size gives u the advantage to break through elite level players arm tackles. I want to see how his balance is during contact vs regular ACC comp then higher level comp. If he can then we got ourselves a monster.

He is on pace to hit his numbers like last year and do something imppressive at states.. He hit 10.4 at states first time last year he is rarely challenged and doesnt have to push it.. Hope he goes all out and go for 10.1 or better..

Also sidenote but he should be favorite for state because Issam Asigna doesnt plan to run states, dude is INCREDIBLE! He Beat Noah Lyles the reigning 200m world champ in a 100 meters race as a high schooler

Dude ran a 9.83 in 100 meters as a HIGH SCHOOLER.. Issam is gonna skip states..

High schooler beat a world champ.. Just mind boggling.. 9.83 wind aided but stilllllllllllll
