TitanTiger 20,499 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 The signing day surprise: 4-star LB Carlton Johnson, a teammate of Enrique Davis, is coming to Auburn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCWarEagle 0 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Cool! I'm not familiar w/ him, but a 4 star Linebacker sounds like a great pickup. Thanks for all the update (both here and in the "official" thread). Any idea on what the holdup is w/ Lamb? We have everyone else in, right?

CWM is very high on this kid. Rumor has it, we could have one more surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWM is very high on this kid. Rumor has it, we could have one more surprise. Unless it is a typo, Rivals has him listed at 6-1, 184 pounds. A little small, even for an Auburn linebacker. However, with the talent I'm sure the guy has, this staff will be able to make the guy effective. Welcome aboard, Carlton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw 200 lbs on Scout ... a average would be 192 ... it will be interesting to get the correct weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUesquire 1 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 At that size and being very fast....perhaps a head hunting safety! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanTiger 20,499 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 Scout has him at 6-2, 200. I imagine they think he can either put on more weight or he's gonna be a safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also the fastest LB on the field that day. I'll keep looking for his updated height and weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAR-MATT 2 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 who's the other rumored surprise?? Word was that Drake Nevis might of been considering a switch on signing day. Of course it never happened. Here is some video on Carlton Johnson. Pretty impressive stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it never happened. Here is some video on Carlton Johnson. Pretty impressive stuff. Most of these fast linebackers can be neutralized by running right at them. Not this kid!!! Did you see the play where he blew up the guard and then crushed the running back? That was awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
