For when Will Johnson is in the NFL [via Twitter]

Yo, distant future:

He's a 2025, when they're still putting together the 2023 class, but he's also an early top-50ish cornerback who could be the anchor of a star-studded class, provided Michigan can hold onto a national prospect from South Florida for two years and change. They're already well down the trail; Ewald was on campus for the win over Penn State, and apparently it wasn't his first trip here. He also claims a 4.0 GPA.

This is a big-time recruit from a big-time school. The 13-0 Lions won the FHSAA 1M state championship in a blowout last week and are set to play Bishop Gorman tomorrow for a claim on the best high school team in America. 247 has him their 75th overall for 2025 and #6 CB. On3 has him a 90 (4-star) but not ranked yet. Rivals has him their #23 player overall.

His Hudl page is worth checking out, given those sophomore highlights include a who's who of wide receivers who'll be on SEC rosters next year.

You can also wait a couple of years.
