Super sad. In his prime, he was our best DL coach ever. Looks like he was 63.

One of the five best position coaches we've ever had. I'm talking about EVER.
Surprised there are more posts on this one. Lawing was a terrific coach. His visit on Erik Kimrey’s Podcast a few years ago was one of the most insightful looks into how College Football works that I can recall. I recommend it.
I have listened to that podcast several times. He said that Gilmore's parents recorded a clemson coach committing a major violation and gave USC coaches the recording. They held it over clemson's head for the next few years to "win the state" in recruiting at a time when there was a lot of in-state talent. If I recall correctly, it was Lawing that said this. I do misremember quite a lot, but mostly from my 20s.
They didn’t have good things to say about Billy Napier either. In fact, it sounded like a lot of the Clemson coaches apologized because they were embarrassed by the way he handled the issue we had making a phone call during a dead period.
