Quote:
We’ve known for some time that Carter was a tremendous athlete, but it was his junior season film and several in-person evaluations by our team that caused him to ascend rapidly to his lofty position at No. 3 overall, a numerical grade of 100 and a five-star rating. The 6-foot-5, 237-pound Carter has special quickness and instincts and the type of frame that could see him make millions of dollars in the NFL one day. As good as he is now, he can be even better and since rankings are projections, we project him very high. Alabama, Notre Dame, Florida and a host of other programs have offered recently.

prefers a 3-4 D.

Looks like this will be a Bama/UGA battle until the end.

That's odd because he certainly is not built for the 3 - 4. He is a pure DE imo.

I know the first post indicates USC offer, but on Rivals, Scout and 247, it looks like we're the only ranked team that has not offered. Are the recruiting sites missing something?

"UGA, Alabama, and Florida, the big SEC schools, and Florida State, Clemson, and Notre Dame stand out the most," he said. "I probably prefer a 3-4 system, but I'm not looking away from the 4-3. If I played in the 4-3 defense, I would want to play outside linebacker."
.

And I agree with you, at 6'5 240lbs, he is a prototype for DE in a 4-3.

So would you try to sell him on a Norwood type role considering his interests? He's a DE for sure, but maybe we could get him interested in that hybrid type position. Also was that Norwood role something that Ellis Johnson brought to the table, and maybe not so much a Lorenzo Ward type scheme?

This kid is not a LB in any system and imo like ETG stated is a prototypical 4-3 DE ala Clowney. Not really sure who is telling him he is suited for a 3-4 at any position because he is not. Maybe his HS Coach is a Georgia Fan.

Or maybe he just has the defenses backwards. He could be an OLB in a 3-4, but he is a DE all the way in a 4-3 and he has a long way to go to becoming a DE in a 3-4.

Could be though I do not see him as a OLB at all. Could be wrong jmo.

Found out USC offered him today...

Jake Rowe@JakeRoweRivals
2014 4-star Norcross DE Lorenzo Carter says #SouthCarolina as offered. Said offer came as early as a month ago but he didn't realize it.

Coaches can't have much contact with Juniors unless it falls within the "bump" rule, so a lot of time a school will tell the coach that his player has an offer and sometimes it gets lost in the shuffle. Happened with Raekwon McMillan and UGA earlier in the recruiting year.

Didn't realize there was a time a coach can tell a kid about an offer. You learn something new everyday!
