So we're doing pretty well with Rayhme Johnson and now this other kid from Hawaii, Slade, is interested. Can we take both?

Slade is a Rivals 250 guy, so a quality player, part of the appeal of Johnson besides his ability was him and Lenoir were pretty tight and could both see themselves here.

I thought I read somewhere that Johnson is going to take a bunch of visits and this will play out awhile and he could potentially lose his spot to Slade.

This staff will not wait forever, they like Rayhme A LOT but there are others knocking on the door---Slade, Fagan, and Ward specifically but others are interested as well. IMO they are keeping the spot for Johnson through the Cali camp and shortly thereafter but then will move along if the right opportunity presents itself.

In your estimation, does Johnson bite then?

I would say that would be as good a time as any. If he doesn't, I would be shocked; I think the writing is on the wall that we've already filled two spots and we only need 1 more.
