Tony Tuioti, Dan Lanning and Tosh Lupoi have already assembled one of the best defensive line hauls in the country for the 2024 class with players like Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei defensive lineman Aydin Breland, Durant (Okla.) defensive lineman Xadavien Sims and St. Louis (Mo.) Hazelwood Central standout Tione Gray to name a few.

Gray is also visiting Oregon this weekend for the Oregon State game.

Johnson is expected to make his college commitment during the early signing period next month, and Wednesday's picks from two of the best in the recruiting industry continue Johnson's trend toward Oregon.
