Ryan Silver, the program director of Johnson's summer team Earl Watson Elite, confirmed to Rivals that Johnson is down to California, Colorado, Notre Dame, Stanford and Utah.
So far, visits have been set for Colorado (Sept. 19), Notre Dame (Sept. 25), Utah (Oct. 8) and California (Oct. 15). A date for Stanford should be set within the next few days.
One of the top big men on the West Coast, Johnson had a very productive summer during stops with Earl Watson Elite and at the Under Armour All-American Camp Powered by Rivals.com.
Johnson runs the floor very well, has good skill, can face the basket to 17 feet and while he still needs to add more bulk, he does have some lean strength on his 220-pound frame. Based on his summer, he will be making a move up in the 2016 Rivals150 when it gets updated later this week.
