Alexis Johnson is considered one of the best defensive tackles in the country. He is also strongly considering joining Coach Stoops and the Wildcats as part of the Class of 2016. The 6'4'' 295 pound Johnson got his first scholarship offer from the 'Cats awhile back and has since seen his recruiting blow up. His most recent offer came yesterday from Tennessee and he also holds offers from Cincinnati, Baylor, NC State, Louisville, Boise State, Houston, Iowa State, and Kansas.
In an article, on JCfootball.com Johnson said "I talk to to Kentucky a little more than everyone else, we talk about everyday." He went on to talk about how much he likes UK assistant coach Jimmy Brumbaugh and stated that Brumbaugh visited him at the end of April.
The Fort Scott Community College standout is set to graduate in December, after which he plan to set and take his official visits and make his decision. Kentucky was the first school to offer him and appears to be staying in touch the most, so hopefully Coach Stoops, Coach Brumbaugh, and the rest of the staff can reel in the highly sought after Junior College stud.
