Johnson was known for his option-based running attacks as the head coach at Navy and Georgia Southern.
Johnson signed running backs Embry Peeples of Orlando, Richard Watson of Tallahassee and speedster Marcus Wright, a Parade magazine All-American from San Antonio.
Watson (6-1, 225) is rated as the nation's Number 3 fullback by Rivals and Number 4 by Scout.com.
Johnson's in-state signees include two highly rated offensive linemen Omoregie Uzzi (6-3, 291) of Chamblee and Nick McRae (6-4, 290) of Dublin.
Johnson signed two quarterbacks -- Jaybo Shaw of Flowery Branch and Tevin Washington of Wetumpka, Alabama.
Taylor Bennett won't be returning for his senior season. He plans to transfer though he hasn't told Johnson if he has picked a new school.
Bennett's decision was not unexpected, as he is a drop-back quarterback and doesn't fit in with the option offense.
