Shaq Lawson is playing the waiting game as he waits for the Clearing House to clear him for enrollment at Clemson.

“I am still waiting.  I am going to find out next week,” said Lawson.

The former Daniel standout is confident he will be enrolling in August.

“I feel good that I will be able to enroll in August.  I should be there on August 2,” said Lawson.

How does it feel to just be waiting?

“I feel like I am in the NFL draft.  I am sitting back in the room waiting and there is nothing I can do,” said Lawson.

Although Shaq is no get enrolled he has spent a good bit of time on campus with his future teammates.

“I have been over there a lot.  I have been running, and getting stronger,” said Lawson.

Shaq and the other freshmen had a strong bond before arriving on campus, but that bond has grown over the summer.

“I am building a good bond with the other freshmen, especially the defensive line,” said Lawson.

How are the new freshmen looking?

“They are looking good.  Everyone is big and fast.  I expected them to be good,” replied Lawson.

Shaq has been talking with Jay Jay McCullough who is also waiting to get cleared.

“I have been talking with him.  I just tell him to be ready when he gets to Clemson,” said Lawson.
