'13 GA DE Carl Lawson (Auburn commit)

AU defensive line coach Rodney Garner visited with Carl Lawson father on Saturday night. Lawson was still traveling back from Orlando.

"I think he was honest. We talked slightly about the past -- even more about looking towards the future. I think it was a great first step." Lawson Sr. is also impressed with the staff Auburn has compiled. He feels the strength of the entire staff and their experience is a benefit and a plus for the Tigers.

As Lawson works through the recruiting process, Lawson Sr. confirms the Auburn commit will take visits. Where those visits will be to are yet to be determined. Ole Miss, Tennessee, North Carolina and Clemson all appear to be possibilities.

But Lawson Sr. said his son prefers a low-key atmosphere, a small-town atmosphere. Lawson Sr. admits that his son saw those characteristics in Auburn, contributing to his original commitment.

"He's quiet, he likes quiet," Lawson Sr. said. "He saw that in Auburn. He likes the campus, the fans -- but he's never de-committed from Auburn so people understand that. We'll move forward and decide if Auburn is the best fit. Auburn was his number one choice before and Auburn is still under high consideration."

I got a feeling he'll stick with AU. I'd give my left nut to be wrong..but I just don't think we end up getting him.

I didn't get that at all from this. Just that Lawson has done a fine job handling his recruiting. Exactly the kinda kid you want on your team quiet off the field and knocking heads on the field.
 
He pretty much said publicly that Lawson has decommitted from Auburn. Although they're still definitely in the picture, that's huge.

I haven't been very positive about us getting Lawson, due to the fact that it seems like we have been flrting back and forth for over a year, like we are the nice good looking class president, and he is wanting the sexy head cheerleader, if that makes sense lol. He likes us, he just wants that flashy place. But with that said I am starting to like our chances considering all the stuff that happened at AU, and them hiring Garner who never offered him at UGA, and Lawson finally setting up an OV.
 
This simply isn't true. Those teams you named don't run pro style offenses. Just because they are in the NFL doesn't make their system pro style. Just because June Jones ran the run and shoot in the NFL didn't make it a pro style. Chicago, Minnesota, and SF are examples of teams who still run a pro style. And in their offenses the FB and TEs are very relevant. I do understand what you are saying, the NFL is spreading it out more than ever. But that doesn't make those schemes pro style.

SF runs the pistol offense

SF runs the most backwards... weird looking offense ever.

Like the West Coast offense had a baby with one of Spurrior's dreams.

That is how I describe it.
 
So that puts us at 3-3 in bowl games this year and if Bama loses the National Championship, Texas A&M loses to Oklahoma, and Ole Miss loses to Pitt. We will be 3-6 this year and that could very well happen. I never said that we weren't the best conference. All I am saying is that we are not as dominate as we were from the past 6 years. Flame Away.

Good call
