He wanted to spend the most time with the ball, getting it into play and leading the team.
“I lead by example. It shows others how much you care about the game by leading them and what’s best for them. If they’re having a bad day, help them and get them going. If someone’s in the wrong, teach them what you know,” Johnson said.

Here at Sports Illustrated s Spartan Nation, we endeavor to be one of the fans most interactive sites. With that in mind, we present your weekly Michigan State Football Questions and email.
Hi Hondo, I have a kind of three-way question here: Who do the Spartans match up best against for this coming season? The worst? Which opponent looks like they got us on paper, but we have a good shot of pulling off an upset victory? Daniel Lewis
Answering your questions in the order, I would say that they match up best with Maryland.
That game is on November 13 at Spartan Stadium. The worst matchup is with Ohio State the following week (November 20) in Columbus, Ohio.
