Marcus Lattimore names a leader

Posted Apr 20, 2009
Marcus Lattimore (Duncan, S.C./James F. Byrnes) confirmed that Auburn is his new leader after an unofficial visit to the school during the weekend, ESPN's JC Shurburtt reports.

He spoke with ESPN affiliate Web site AuburnUndercover.com about the visit, "This whole experience, I just felt it. You can't really explain it. My mom loves it, my stepdad loves it. You really just can't explain the feeling. I really didn't expect this much. I was just coming in to see the offense. They showed me that, and I met all these great people."

Lattimore previously listed Georgia, Florida State, LSU, Auburn, South Carolina, Clemson, Maryland, North Carolina, Michigan and Duke as his top 10. (ESPN.com)
