Head coach Joey Jones and his staff hauled in another recruit on Sunday when Smiths Station High School student-athlete Nigel Lawrence announced he had chosen South Alabama to play football and baseball.
His recruiter talked to him last month and went over how he would be able to achieve his degree and how he would compete for playing time at safety immediately. This sat well with Lawrence and the three-star prospect selected the Jaguars over Georgia State, Western Kentucky, Cincinnati, Mercer, UAB and Troy.
Lawrence, a 6′ 178-pound prospect fell in love with the atmosphere on campus when he visited in July and plans to attend the Mississippi State game in September. He also wants to attent football games at a couple other schools as well, including Auburn. But Lawrence hit social media hard after making his commitment public. He touted the rise of the Jaguars team and how he wants to be part of making history at the University.
