"Every time I always went down there I always felt like I was at home and that's where I was supposed to be," Lawless said of his decision. "I decided to hurry up and make my decision. Hopefully it will be a great place for me and a great move."
Lawless was a high school teammate of current Tennessee linebacker Daniel Bituli and though he didn't grow up a fan of the Volunteers, a visit to Tennessee with Bituli was a turning point in his recruitment and he never looked back.
"I went to the game, I believe I went with Bituli down to a game. I loved the atmosphere it was crazy that left a big impact as well. I've had the feeling for a real long time, just waiting to make the decision at the right time I've always felt that way about the school."
"I'm gonna ty to get DT D'andre (Litaker) and DT Greg (Emerson) on board," he said. "I think it's pretty high (likelihood). That'd be pretty solid."
