Johnson could be the top transfer signing of this period. He was a high three-star player and was ranked a top-100 recruit in Florida.  He received 30 offers (!), including Boston College, Cincinnati, Florida, Louisville, Miami, Mississippi State, Penn State, Pitt, Purdue, Rutgers, Syracuse, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Wake Forest and Wisconsin.

Defensive end has been a long-time weakness in UMass' FBS era. Johnson could be an impact player for the Minutemen and in the MAC.
