Big Time Baller, Bigger Dreams, and Bright Future

In this high-energy episode of The SLIDE Podcast, Big Time Baller, Bigger Dreams, and Bright Future take center stage as the crew welcomes special guest Brian Johnson Jr., a multi-sport phenom from Atlanta with ambitions as tall as his 6’3″ frame. Hosted by Coach Aaron and joined by guest hosts Big E and Mateo, this episode is full of laughs, motivation, and a next-level perspective from one of youth sports’ most driven athletes.

Standing Tall On and Off the Field

Brian doesn’t just look the part—he lives it. With a mature mindset and impressive athleticism, he talks about his journey through baseball, basketball, football, and track. He shares how hard work, family support, and early inspiration from stars like Ronald Acuña Jr. ignited his passion for the game. “I started watching Ronald Acuña Jr. and just fell in love with baseball,” Brian says. That love shines through as he discusses learning to control an 83 MPH fastball and his experience at Pottstown.

Dreams Bigger Than Baseball

Throughout the episode, Brian reveals his ambitions to play at LSU or Tennessee, balancing sports with school, launching a clothing brand, and dreaming of going pro. He talks about time management, physical therapy recovery, and even his favorite walk-up song.
