The skinny: Carson’s stock somehow went down during his senior season, but it wasn’t because of his on-field production. He also drew rave reviews from his performance at the Mississippi-Alabama All-Star game, so it remains a mystery why a few scouting services are down on the early UT commitment. He’ll need to modify his body a bit in the weight room and early playing time shouldn’t be at the top of his priority list, but he still has loads of potential.

The skinny on Allan Carson is that he's not skinny!...which is good since he's a DT! Chuck Smith and the new strength coach (General What's his name) will whip him into shape!
