WR Johnson claims five offers

Wide receiver Keeon Johnson has stockpiled five offers at this time. The 6-foot-3, 200-pounder is getting quite a bit of other interest as the spring heats up.
"It was an offer from East Carolina, but now I have five offers from East Carolina, North Carolina, NC State, Wake Forest and Duke," he said. "After I got my first offer, they started coming in towards the middle of the football season."

In addition, schools including Notre Dame, Maryland, Clemson and Florida State are interested.
Previously, Johnson was high on North Carolina, but that has changed a bit.
"I was high on North Carolina at first, but it kind of fell off and they aren't a top school now," he said. "There wasn't really a reason, I haven't talked to their coaches like that lately. Now, I'm just trying to be patient and wait it out, see where I really want to go."
What is Johnson looking for then?
"I just want to be in a school cause I'm trying to go into the medical field. I want a school with that type of program," he said. "I want somewhere I feel welcome there and at home."
Johnson is going to start evaluating schools more this weekend with a trip to NC State. He is also considering trips to Maryland, East Carolina and North Carolina in the near future.
An all-conference and all-county prospect, Johnson posted approximately 800-yards receiving and 13 touchdowns as a junior.
