2014 GUARD
 ROBERT JOHNSON 
 COMMITS TO
 INDIANA UNIVERSITY 
 ALL-MET ELITE
 
BENEDICTINE COLLEGE PREPARATORY HS.
RICHMOND VA.
 
The Indiana University basketball team picked up its first recruiting commitment in the 2014 class on Friday with the pledge of versatile four-star guard Robert Johnson.

A 6-foot-2 player from Benedictine High School in Richmond, Va., picked the Hoosiers over North Carolina, Florida State and Virginia during an announcement at his school.

Johnson, the nation’s No. 42 senior, according to Rivals.com, has been a priority recruit for IU coach Tom Crean, who, according to Johnson’s father, thinks he is capable of playing either guard position in college.
 

Robert Johnson Sr. said in a Tuesday night phone interview that he believes his son’s shooting ability could be a major asset to the Hoosiers.

“I think it’s huge … (for) any school in the country, if you can find a scorer, that’ll really make your team much better,” he said. “That’s what it has evolved to, people who can really score the basketball and shoot the basketball from deep range. I think that really would benefit (the Hoosiers).”
