Elite 2027 QB names FSU top five school, sets August commitment date
Johnson has a total of 29 offers. However, he's narrowed his choices down to five schools. His final programs are the Mississippi State Bulldogs, Texas A&M Aggies, South Carolina Gamecocks, Tennessee Volunteers, and FSU. Also, Johnson has set his commitment date for Aug. 3.
On3's industry rankings have Johnson as the No. 50 overall player in the country and the No. 5 quarterback. He's also the No. 6 prospect out of Georgia.
His numbers weren't gaudy as a sophomore, but Johnson had some nice production. He completed 123 of his 183 passes as a sophomore (67.2 %) for 1,799 yards and 16 touchdowns with just three interceptions. Also, he gained 318 yards on the ground and scored three times.
Johnson was in Tallahassee on June 5 for a camp, and he also took an unofficial visit on June 15. Hopefully, that was enough to secure his commitment.

Popular Big Ten analyst predicts breakout season for Michigan State QB Aidan Chiles
A popular college football personality has made a bold prediction in favor of the Spartans and starting quarterback Aidan Chiles. A well known Big Ten personality and analyst on social media is expecting big things from Chiles this season. Ben Stevens -- also known as Big Ten Ben -- put out a bold prediction on Wednesday in favor of Chiles having a monster season in 2025. He is predicting that Chiles will lead the Big Ten in passing yards. That's quite the statement from Stevens, and one that would certainly mean big things happened for the Spartans this season if it comes true. Chiles threw for just shy of 2,500 yards last year in his first season as a starter. For some perspective of what it would take to lead the league in passing yards, Ohio State's Will Howard threw for just over 4,000 yards last season. So it would probably take at least that total to lead the league in passing this year for Chiles. Do I think this is possible for Chiles? Yes, I actually do think it is possible. Now is it likely? No, it's not and that's why it's a fun eye-grabbing bold prediction from Stevens. Chiles will get his first crack at putting up some big passing numbers in the opener against Western Michigan next week. Kickoff for the opener between the Spartans and Broncos from Spartan Stadium is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET on August 29.

Oklahoma QB John Mateer named to Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award watch list
The buzz surrounding the Oklahoma Sooners' new starting quarterback, John Mateer. He's been included on a number of watch lists this offseason and is a dark horse candidate to contend for the Heisman Trophy. On Wednesday, Mateer was included on another watch list, this time for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award. The Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award goes to the offensive player of the year who played his high school or college football in the state of Texas or was born in Texas. Oklahoma Sooners quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray won the awards in back-to-back seasons during their Heisman runs in 2017 and 2018. The two were standout quarterbacks in Texas high school football and started their careers at universities in the state of Texas before transferring to Oklahoma. Mateer could be on a similar path with the Sooners in 2025. Though there are more unknowns on the offensive side of the ball than there were when OU entered the 2017 or 2018 seasons, Mateer could very well be the answer to a lot of the questions with his dual-threat ability. The former three-star quarterback has been lauded for his ability to make plays when things break down and for his competitive drive. And if he's able to translate that to Oklahoma and the SEC, Mateer could end the season in the running for a number of postseason awards.
