We need LB's bad...and obviously there's bigger targets on our board with Dylan Moses, Chris Allen, Jordan-Swilling, Chaisson, Levi Jones, and Josh Clarke(who deserves an offer)etc.

But this kid is an absolute baller. He camped this summer & goes to the same HS in Alabama as new DL commit Justin Thomas. Thomas Johnston has a dog mentality that can't be coached...I really like this kid a lot & I think he would be a great fit in the P&G. We need to turn up the heat on this kid...not to mention it would be another great get out of state in Alabama

Coach Craig was his recruiter at Auburn and we need LBs. It says warm, I think we nab him away from Auburn.

so is he camping at LSU here? and if so, is that JR with hands on hips in the background?

The irony if he were to sign and then, through shear coincidence, be assigned #31.

He can crush some people but he looks like he would be lucky to run a 5 flat in the 40

The kid seems passionate and intense. The kind of guy who makes your program better because of how hard he is willing to work and challenges other players to do the same.

Having said that, I don't think he's the guy you bring in when your numbers are tight and you are looking at a top 5 recruiting class. I think he ends up outside of the SEC.

Imagine the confusion of having a DE named Justin Thomas and an OLB named Thomas Johnston, both from the same town and high school.

quote:

There has been another record broken in 2016 and the new record holder is Thomas Johnston. The linebacker out of Spanish Fort (Ala.) had 17 tackles against Tuscaloosa (Ala.) Hillcrest Friday night and he now has 661 tackles for his career. The record in Alabama for tackles was 622, so he has surpassed that by 39. The four star is looking hard at Arkansas and LSU right now, and he has already visited each school once this fall. Johnston is a machine on the football field. He is football tough, he has great instincts, he wraps up well and he is a natural leader.
