    Per Rivals, he just decommitted from Miami and dropped them from consideration and is a lean towards LSU. Still a possibility he ends up at Miami, despite this report. A lot of conflicting stuff has been surrounding him for months.</div>

    Yeah, figured since there was so much going on about it, and this new info, I thought I'd make the profile.

    Kid is really talented too.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>SAN ANTONIO – The big news came from Patrick Johnson soon after he arrived at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl on Sunday.

    The Pompano Beach (Fla.) Ely cornerback had narrowed his list to three – and the school he was formerly committed to, Miami, did not make the cut. Instead, Johnson will pick Florida, LSU or Florida State when he makes his announcement Saturday during the bowl game.

    "I feel the positive vibe from all those coaches," Johnson said. "(Miami) coach (Randy) Shannon is a great guy but ever since I committed, everything went downhill. He didn't call me like all the other coaches called me. I was committed and the other coaches saw something in me where, 'We can get that guy' so I opened back up."</div>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Patrick Johnson may have a lot of people guessing where he's going to school, but there's no guessing about his ability. He has clearly been the best corner on either squad and can be left in man coverage and eliminate one side of the field down the line with additional coaching.</div>

    Johnson a true lock down corner

    Patrick will be choosing from three hats today: LSU, Florida, and FSU.

    I know it happens all the time, but I don't understand the mentality of "Coach X didn't show me enough love"

    Johnson's ACT scores were flagged. He hasn't started class at LSU yet, as a result.

    More on his ACT situation

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Johnson said Florida, one of his top three choices (along with Florida State) before he settled on LSU, questioned his academic eligibility with the NCAA. ACT officials subsequently reviewed his test results and "flagged" the October score.

    "I'm not upset," Johnson said. "Florida made an issue about the ACT score. They're cowards. They had to go behind my back. But that's OK. We play them this year (on Oct. 11 at Florida)."</div>

    ziiiiiiiiiiiiing!
