His freshman season was inauspicious; he averaged 1.6 points and 1.7 rebounds per game in 25 games played. He scored a total of 41 points on the year. The following season, 2007–08, was similar to his freshman campaign. Johnson averaged 3.1 points and 3.5 rebounds per game while only scoring 90 points on the year. In Johnson's junior season, his productivity markedly increased to 7.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 0.8 steals per game.

The 2009–10 season saw the Ragin' Cajuns go 9–0 in league play at home; they finished the year with an overall record of 13–17. Professional career Johnson was not selected in the 2010 NBA draft.
