As many as Dabo deems necessary to keep us in the top two teams nationally.
BTW CTB did not give legacy scholarships and we did not win a single ACC title because of it.

We should have used all scholies on legacies then

then we have reservations to the college football playoff for the next 4yrs. Inane logic, there is no positive correlation between team's success and legacy scholarships.

The Clemson Family is what sets us apart from the rest of college football. To act like that isn't a positive is to ignore what makes Clemson special because it isn't tangible. If you can't understand that then you don't know what it means to be a Clemson Tiger.

This is Clemson. We take care of family.
Keep doing what you're doing Dabo. It's obviously working.

And they are all bad takes. If you change the last names none are at Clemson
Davis Twins SLOW LB
Amir Trapp 5'7 DB Oh Joy
Dawkins 5'7 DB Why have one when you can have two ?
Greenlee Came in as a LB and now plays TE . This speaks for itself.

OP stated he was 5'7"
Jan 18, 2016, 4:48 PM
[ in reply to 247 now list him 5' 9" and a 3* ] |
|
Not 5'9" as stated in the profile, ergo B Dawk Jr is still growing, he gets 2 more inches, he's effective, plus keeps his Father around the program.

Not to mention costing us Nkemdiche, Carl Lawson, Montravius Adams and interfering with Cole Stoudt's success.
Is shame.

Ill admit that i was a little skeptical of dabo doing that
Jan 18, 2016, 12:09 PM

At first but so far it hasn't been a problem. As long as dabo keeps doing what he's doing, he can offer a scholarship to ever the heck he wants. Obviously Dabo knows what he's doing.

I tend to think our coaching and recruiting staff know what they are doing. I don't think any of them would do anything to diminish the quality of student athletes we have on our team. Since they have the ability to size up a player up on their potential I have never seen any reason to take recruiting responsibilities away from them and assign it to the fans. I certainly don't feel any recruit cost us the NC. Go Tigers ALLIN

I can only speak on the Davis kids having seen them play a little this year. Are they ever going to be starters? Maybe not, insert likely if you wish. Can they develop and make contributions in a year or two, provide depth? Absolutely. What I saw watching them was guys who were fundamentally sound, we're usually in a good position and made tackles. Yeah it was against Wofford and App St the last I recall seeing them on defense, but all in all, they looked ok. Just like a fairly large % of your scholarship athletes. For every CJ, Watson, Watkins Andy school gets there are 3 more who provide roster depth. As far as Dawkins, the only other one I could begin to comment on not having seen the rest. With his dad schooling him up this far, I can state that I feel he will l ow the game, and be well prepared. The rest comes down to talent, time will tell there, but I think B Dawk has earned a bit of love from us to give it a shot. Just my .2 cents.

Think about it from a recruiting standpoint. We get 2 elite linebackers this year b/c we took the twins instead of two other high 3 or low 4 stars. I'm sure those 5 stars got to meet with the legacy x NFL players who can fill them in on the tricks of the trade when it comes to their position. Dabo has strengths and weaknesses but roster management and recruiting are his definite strengths. Look at Sumlin, Meyer had QB issues, Saban has a 4 or 5 star transfer out every other month.
