9— Receptions in Lassiter’s victory against Campbell by tight end Phillip Lutzenkirchen, a member of the AJC’s The Georgia 150 list who has committed to Auburn.
Best game ever?
“I think in one game last year I had 14 [catches]. In the spread offense we run, the tight end a lot of times is the first option. So I get a lot of chances. The tight end is in the slot a lot in this offense.”
Counting catches?
“I usually don’t think about it much. Sometimes I do think, ‘Well I’ve gotten a lot of touches.’”
Season expectations?
“Last year I had 46 receptions. That was kind of a lot, and when coach [Chip] Lindsey came here he told me I might double that. I told myself to be ready to have a lot of balls thrown my way in the games. It was nice to get so many balls thrown my way. But last year I carried the load a lot. I’m used to getting that kind of attention from our quarterbacks. “
