New Rivials article on Angelo Blackson

[Tiger Growlin 0]

Nothing earth shattering in the article. It says he's up to 307lbs and is working hard in the weight room. He has 16 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and 1 recovery. Teams are running away from him this year. So much so that his coach has moved him to middle linebacker to prevent that from happening. "We are tired of people running away from him, so we let him play middle linebacker last game. That's how well he runs." Also his coach Dewayne Thomas says he coached Cam Newton's father at Tennessee State. Cecil Newton played center there. Thomas says he remembers Cam when he was a kid. Blackson plans to be in Auburn for the Georgia game.

not to mention they've had like 2-3 forfeits i think too because teams are too scared to play them.

A 300+ pound MLB who can move. Now that's something to fear.

This guy IS the next Nick Fairley. I know, I know, don't crown him until he does something on the college level. But he is in the same mold as Fairley and they say he can run, just like people say Fairley is way too quick for his size.

Love the coaching connections.  Angelo come on home where the weather is always nice.  Cam's dad on camera Saturday looked like he could still play.  WDE.

Not trying to call you out but it says Thomas coached Cecil Newton Jr., Cam's brother, who played center at Tennessee State.

I think Mr. Blackson will be seeing alot of playing time next year. It is gonna be scary for other teams, when Auburn once again has a dominate D to go along with an explosive O. Keep up the good work on that recruiting trail coaches!
