Kerryon Johnson and Keaton Anderson know a thing or two about the recruiting business. The Tennessee Valley's top rated prospects for the Class of 2015 became grizzled veterans of the process over the past couple of years.



Their roller-coaster rides ended on National Signing Day as Johnson, a Madison Academy running back, signed with Auburn, and Florence linebacker Anderson signed with Alabama.

AL.com asked Johnson and Anderson what advice they have for future recruits, and each was happy to impart their wisdom (see video).

The duo saw it all during their college courtships, and it was mostly positive experiences. Johnson noted that he had not dealt with much harassment from rabid fans on social media.



"I've seen some other recruits and they get it hard," he said. "But I handled my recruitment well. I never said 'I'm leaning here, or I'm leaning here' and switched back and forth. It's scary that there's grown men who say these things. You're like, 'You're 40 years old, go have a job or something.' I haven't got a lot of it. You can only pray for those guys, and thank the ones who aren't like that."
