CLOSED: What Kind of Spider if this

Temple, GA

I found this spider in my garage and have found a few of these over the last few weeks. Some a little bigger and some a little smaller.

A clearer photo, especially one showing the eye pattern, would be helpful here. It superficially resembles a wolf spider (family Lycoside - see http://tinyurl.com/qroqtq), but its spinnerets appear more like those of a grass/funnel web spider (family Agelenidae - see http://tinyurl.com/olsnq4).. In either case, these are harmless to humans, but large specimens are capable of delivering a painful bite if mishandled.
