Swinney, Venables to Visit Lawson

Future Clemson defensive end Shaq Lawson will get a visit from head coach Dabo Swinney and Brent Venables on Friday.

“Coach Swinney and coach Venables are coming for a visit on Friday,” said Lawson.

The prize recruit had a chance to meet new defensive coordinator Brent Venables the first weekend he was on campus.

“I met him the weekend he interviewed for the job.  I haven’t seen him since that weekend.  I look forward to getting to know him better,” said Lawson.

How does Shaq feel about the hiring of coach Venables?

“It was a good hire.  He is the right man for the job.  I watched his defense at Oklahoma and they always brought a lot of pressure and blitzed a lot,” said Lawson.

The talented athlete is helping Daniel on the court as they compete for a state championship.

“It is going good.  We are 17-3 right now and No. 4 in the state.  I am averaging 13 points and ten rebounds,” said Lawson.

On Wednesday the top defensive end will sign with the Clemson during a ceremony at school.

“I am going to be signing at the school.  We will have a ceremony in the gym,” said Lawson.

How does Shaq feel about signing with the Tigers in just a few days?

“I am ready to get it over with and make it official,” said Lawson.

The Daniel standout hopes to see the field as a freshman.

“I think I have a good shot.  They are losing two defensive ends and we have two coming in.  I have a feeling both of us could play this year,” said Lawson.
