Three-Star 2026 QB Michael Johnson Details Cincinnati Bearcats Recruitment Following Elite 11
TUNNEL HILL — Elite 11 is the chance to showcase your talents to the world as you compete against the best quarterbacks in the nation. Cincinnati Bearcats target Michael Johnson from Dutchtown High School in Georgia had no issue showing what he was all about. He is an ON3 three-star from the 2026 class (154th overall, 11th-best QB).
“I feel good I feel like I could’ve made a bunch of better throws but I didn’t miss too many,” He said about Elite 11.
Johnson is one of the three big names to watch at quarterback alongside Brock Bradley and Owen Lansu.
“Coach Pete Thomas and I be on the phone almost every other week trying to build the chemistry and get to know each other more so they are a top school for me right now. I plan to visit this summer.”
There have been many quarterbacks that might catch the eye of recruits. Johnson dove deeper of how he could also fit in the scheme.
“The fit I see is that they can build the offenses around me and make sure everything is working. He (Pete Thomas) is just a very cool person and I think he is young. Younger guys are more accommodating and I feel like you can talk to them more about things.
“Of course they make me feel like a priority. They made me feel like family when I first came there with open arms and showed me all around especially coach Satterfield he was very cool and I had a nice conversation with him.”
