Clemson takes 3 star CB from Nkemdiche's school.....

  • joetheogre said...

    Clemson has had some good 5 stars (Spiller, Watkins), but they've relative duds as well.

    I just find the concept mind boggling. I am not sure what elite OOS recruits see in Clemson to be honest. I've been there several times - its a nice town. But it is nothing that has ever wowed me.

    If I am an elite Florida player I am going to UF/FSU or an elite national power (Michigan, So Cal, Alabama, LSU, whatever)

    There's something special in these hills.

    Nah, seriously, I don't know how we do it either. I think its a combination of a lot of things to be honest. I think a lot of these kids want to go to school where they can stay out of trouble (cue the media conspiracies), where they have a chance to play early, and we are able to sell Clemson to their parents.

    Just for the record, I don't think we land RN when it's all said and done.

  • How do they land guys? The freaking pay people morans. Search the pic of the Clemson guy holding the stack of bills or Mike Bellamy showing off his earnings.

    I think a lot of it is just Dabo being a good recruiter. I don't think he can coach, but damn that man can sell.

    It's his only redeeming quality.

    On that we certainly agree.

    I must admit, I think I misjudged you. You are far more intelligent than the garden variety of Clemson fans on Tigernet. Not to mention your contributions to the "Hot Women thread"

  • Dabo can absolutely recruit. I agree with Clemson that he won't stick until the end. Good pickup for now to get momentum with other recruits, imo.

    You may think/hope that, but the guys who run Clemson's site on that network would know more about things in Clemson than just about anyone outside of Dabo.

    For Bama's sake no news is not good news. They may want to keep it quiet until it's most opportune to go public.

    I was just funnin bout the Rivals part. Good pickup for Clemson. I'll be stunned if he signs there in Feb though. I won't be surprised if it's not Alabama, but I will be surprised if that one sticks.
