Football: Crenshaw's Mossi Johnson commits to UCLA

Mossi Johnson, a standout receiver and defensive back at Los Angeles Crenshaw, has committed to UCLA.

"I'm going to come in as an athlete, and they'll find a position for me," Johnson said.

The 6-foot-1, 175-pound senior has been terrific in five games for the Cougars (4-1) on both sides of the ball. He had two interceptions in an upset victory over Oaks Christian.

"I guess I did earn the offer," he said.
