Freakish ability gives DT Johnson chance to shine as a freshman
By Luke Johnson, The Times-Picayune The Times-Picayune

Freshman defensive tackle Anthony Johnson had a reputation before he set foot on LSU's campus.

The moniker "Freak" is a testament to Johnson's raw athleticism, which isn't usually paired with a 6-foot-3, 295-pound mountain of a man.

And he wasn't anointed "Freak" by a high school teammate or the media. It was given to him by longtime NFL and college defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin.

"My sophomore year, I committed to the University of Tennessee, and the defensive coordinator at the time, Monte Kiffin, said he wanted me to run a 40-yard dash," Johnson said. "I was 315 pounds at the time, and I ran a 4.8-second 40."

I want this guy in black and gold in 4 years.
I take Heberts kid too. I mean T-Bob is an awesome name and I'd take him just for that.

	W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground. Last edited by Crusader; 08-12-2011 at 05:44 AM.. Reason: Forgot to write some stuff and so...
