Darius has some serious speed being on the state champion 4x100 meter relay team. And I heard he was also very smooth and fluid. This is definitely some good news on The Hilltop.

pretty impressive. Also I think some of the recruiting services have incorrect information on this kid. The stats I saw on Rivals were not that impressive but this video starts with some pretty big numbers. Also Scout is clearly wrong with the 4.69 Forty. To me he also looks bigger than 5-10 more like the 5-11 which he claims in the video. He is too long and lanky to be 5-10.

If this is a recent recruit, why doesn't he show up under commits in PonyStampede? I wouldn't expect Rivals to have them because they have virtually no coverage of the Ponies at the present time!

Scout now reports that Darius has not accepted the offer and is still looking at other schools. :?

PonyStampede now claims that Darrius Johnson has officially committed-I bumped this thread up for prior comments. More breaking news may be on the way according to Pony Stampede.

Word is that Reinebold wanted this kid badly. He must really be talented. Glad to see him come aboard. Both recruiting sites are reporting that he runs a 4.4 40.

Here is a quote from the Scout story.

“SMU by far was the best offensive fit for Darius,â€
