Has offers from MSU, Alabama, Colorado, Syracuse, and Vanderbilt...Renaissance assistant coach Antoine Edwards says Lawrence gave the team 100 yards rushing in the latest game when put in at running back.

[rexvol]

good point

 

[matts42012]

My money is that kid will be a DE.

 

[rexvol]

Florida has offered. Getting interest from USC and Ohio State.

 

[Zasnow]

Scout has him as the #1 mlb with interest in UT

Dubbed the next "LT", Lawrence Thomas could be the top junior prospect in the Midwest. Growing substantially over the last year, Thomas is now a 6-foot-4, 237 pound outside linebacker/wide receiver, possessing the NFL-size, athleticism, and violent mentality that every college program drools over. A terror in opposing backfields, Thomas had 26 tackles for loss and 16 sacks as a junior, while also serving as a devastating blocker on offense.

Dude is huge and runs a 4.6

This kid is a heat seeker to who ever has the ball. He is going to blow some folks up at the next level.

 

[Lord Vader]

He just received a Vol offer.

He just received a Vol offer.

I doubt we have a chance... but do we?

 

[utman47]

I doubt we have a chance... but do we?

Yeah who would be his primary recruiter?

 

[Lord Vader]

I doubt we have a real shot.

He is the #1 LB on Scout.

With guys like Saban and Kiffin in the mix, Thomas' recruitment is sure to be hotly contested even after he makes his choice. With that being said, Thomas is not the type of recruit who will flip or waver once a decision is made. Whoever gets a commitment from Thomas is going to get a great player who is going to be a strong advocate for their program.

Rivals

I like hearing that.

We should get a ton of guys like that, who will stick by their commitment, if only for my blood pressure.

Measures up like a Rolondo McClain clone.

[Ill Will Vol]

O well we were never in it anyway.

 

[VolOnthePlains]

Better them than florida.

Here is to hoping you are wrong.

The kid would start for us as a true freshman.

Knows Arnett.


Has seen Sparty at their peak, and you know what, I bet East Lansing at it's very best compared to Neyland is like a candle compared to the sun.

He can immediately move past Ramar Smith into favorite Vol ever from Detroit.

:question:

Interesting

 

[UTVOL02]

Yeah, this guy is my guess. Would be so sick to land a stud LB like Thomas.

Erroneous on both counts.
