17 Days to Kickoff! - LeMarcus Rowell

As we continue our march to kickoff, we take a look at the top 100 recruits to sign with Auburn of all-time*. The rankings are based on 247’s composite recruit rankings, which unfortunately only date back to 2000.

LeMarcus Rowell remains the 4th highest rated linebacker Auburn has ever signed. He played high school ball at nearby Opelika. At 6-4, 220 lbs, Rowell had prototypical size for a linebacker. He was seen as potentially the next Karlos Dansby.

After red-shirting in 2001, Rowell saw time as a reserve linebacker behind stars like Dontarrious Thomas and Karlos Dansby.
