I would too. I know Ole Miss is still pushing hard, though that seems a long shot. However, if you’re an Auburn fan you can’t like how "embarrassed" he is to represent yall. I think this kid is going to go somewhere else on Feb.2

Lawson is made for the JACK LB position and would step on campus next year and Jacques Smith would be 2nd String.

Yes, but the Vols have to wins games as well. We have to win 7-8 ball games, IMO, for any type of recruiting excellence for the 13 class. Lawson would be a very nice addition to the class however, and may influence others, as well.

If we start winning some games more and more big time guys will notice. We may just have a good shot of swaying him from UA.

I didn't know that he was training with Ritzman. Very cool. Jay Graham is recruiting all over the place.

Graham has got to be considered one of the top assistant coaches of the year.

+1 shoeless. Although I like the high powered offense, give me a strong smash-mouth defense anytime. It seems like the Vols are on the verge, but need some more speed and meanness on D!
"Old School"! A strong defense wins championships!
