RB Storm Johnson offered by LSU after visiting Tennessee

Saturday was a big day for Loganville tailback Storm Johnson, one of the state?s top 2010 prospects. After returning from Junior Day at Tennessee, Johnson was offered by his childhood favorites, LSU.
?That is really exciting about LSU,? Johnson said. ?LSU was my team growing up. They compete for national championships. It means a lot when a top program like that wants you.?
Earlier in the day, Johnson made an unofficial visit to Tennessee, which has also offered. The 6-foot-1, 215-pound Johnson said he got to spend a few minutes with Vols coach Lane Kiffin. ?He liked my size, and said that they were really pursuing me.?
What were Johnson?s impressions of Kiffin? ?He seems very confident and spontaneous. You can tell he?s having a lot of fun at his job.?
Johnson said he was glad he made the trip to Tennessee. ?It?s a very good program that has a lot of eyes on it next year. They have a new coach and everything. A lot of people will be watching them very closely next year to see what they do.?
Johnson has 10 early offers and does not claim any favorites.
