  05/31/22 - RB Kaleb JohnsonJr/2026, Iowa

  Kaleb Johnson is approaching the long-awaited June 12 date with growing excitement. That's the day the Iowa football incoming freshman running back will finally arrive on campus. It's a date that's been circled since he signed with the program last December. Depending on where you look, Johnson is a three- or four-star recruit in Iowa's 2022 signing class. The Ohio native hasn't participated in any other sport since signing, devoting all of his time to making sure he's ready from the moment he enrolls. "I've been working out every day focusing on football," Johnson said. "(Running back coach Ladell Betts) gave me a workout plan, but my trainer is mixing in his own thing with coach Betts' stuff, so it's like both." The scope of these workouts is focused on improving Johnson's hip flexibility and quickness.

He's different than the running backs that Iowa's had in recent years. Betts said as much about the 6-foot-1, 216-pound prospect when his signing became official. "In recent years we haven't had a 'big' running back in the program," Betts said in a statement. "Kaleb brings a physical presence to the running back room with his size and speed and should be a great addition to an already talented group." He believes he'll be a perfect fit in Iowa's zone running scheme given his playing style. "I think I'm going to be the best at doing it," Johnson said. "Their scheme is what I really love running: through the holes and also to the outside. I feel like their running scheme will make me superb when I get there. And their offensive line, they're all just big. I feel like I can maneuver through them, so it's going to be pretty cool." - Iowa City Press-Citizen
