Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.


Agreed***

Welcome to all our signees! You have chosen very wisely, and I believe so have we.

It's unbelievable how stacked we are! Pinch myself!!

We are so blessed with the most awesome coaching staff who love and develop talent!! We are going to mess around and get a national title!

I'm glad Dabo was given the chance to show he could do more than recruit. He is a great delegator, recruiter, leader of boys to men, coach and man of faith!!

I think Clemson is becoming known as the special place it is. If my son was playing for a coach and had incredible talent ( we to deep) I would trust him in the hands of Dabo and his staff including Batson!!

Thank you God for Blessing us with the best school on earth!! Go Tigers!

So far, 74% of the class is ESPN 4*s. Seems pretty solid.***

19


Feb 5, 2014, 10:24 AM

We already have 19 signed...only one spot left? Or will we still get two more?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: 19


Feb 5, 2014, 10:41 AM

Remember that Spence has signed a LOI to be a walkon, so that leaves us with 2 spots left if 20 is the number.

Where is Jamal Robinson?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Maybe we're waiting to see if we get Corey Thomas or...


Feb 5, 2014, 11:08 AM

Andrew Williams first ?

Nevermind - Jabril Robinson just signed. 20***

Sep 16, 2023, 8:11 PM

Now possible one more spot for Andre Williams from Spence's? But the class of 2014 looks good! Cant wait!

If we land Williams with what we already have... :)***

Why use 2 schollies on 0-star Davis's? Gift to Jeff Davis?


Feb 5, 2014, 1:05 PM

According to Scout, Rivals, 247, & ESPN, the Davis brother are unranked and unrecruited. So if the Davis brothers weren't the sons of Jeff Davis, they'd be preferred walk-ons, at best, right?

Jeff Davis can afford to pay their tuition for a year until they could prove whether or not they deserve scholarships, right?

This seems like very inappropriate insider quid pro quo.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Probably be greyshirted***


Feb 5, 2014, 1:18 PM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Completely agree. Look at the kicker who actually


Feb 5, 2014, 1:19 PM [ in reply to Why use 2 schollies on 0-star Davis's? Gift to Jeff Davis? ]

deserved a scholarship but is paying his way so we could make room. Grayshirts eventually get schollies, no? Totally ridiculous.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

you're clueless to what is going on***


Feb 5, 2014, 1:38 PM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

they aren't on scholarship until Jan. If they want to start


Feb 5, 2014, 1:37 PM [ in reply to Why use 2 schollies on 0-star Davis's? Gift to Jeff Davis? ]

sooner(pay their own way), they can but if they do so then their 5 year clock to play 4 starts this fall instead of next-- not a very wise move if you aren't going to see the field in the near term--- the other thing to note about these 2 is I believe they are very young for their grade-- may even be a grade ahead age wise. I think the staff believes these guys will be able to play at some point and still have a lot of growth potential as players.

They have the same deal as Spence and maybe even Williams. Spence didn't have to come in this fall but by doing so, he will burn a RS if he can't beat out the kickers currently on the roster. Spence also indicted he has academic scholarship $ to use this fall.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

But eventually they get a scholly, correct?***


Feb 5, 2014, 1:50 PM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

So 2 schollies still probably wasted for 4yrs, but from Jan?***

Re: So 2 schollies still probably wasted for 4yrs, but from Jan?***


Feb 5, 2014, 2:22 PM

You do not know if the scholarships will be wasted, I trust the coaches evaluations of players, your opinion has been wrong many times, and likely is just as wrong this time.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Can you provide examples to back up your claim?


Feb 6, 2014, 4:59 PM

JD and Judah will be 17 when they graduate HS, about year ahead of their normal age group. Both are over 6 ft and 200 pounds and everyone who has seen them knows they can play.... with another year of maturity they might have been 4 or 5 stars.??? who knows. i look foreward to hearing the naysayers admit their mistake!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Everybody knows they can play?!? Except recruiting services!


Feb 6, 2014, 5:01 PM

Lots of guys are rated as 17 year olds.

Re: Why use 2 schollies on 0-star Davis's? Gift to Jeff Davis?


Feb 5, 2014, 2:18 PM [ in reply to Why use 2 schollies on 0-star Davis's? Gift to Jeff Davis? ]

Sounds similar to what some said about Adam Humphries when he was recruited by Clemson and no one else.. I think he was a 2 star if he was rated. I like the way he plays football.
I have no doubt you will think the same about those Davis boys by the time they graduate!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Big difference to 2-star Humphries & HUGE coincidence 2 bros


Feb 5, 2014, 2:35 PM

I hope you're right that the Davis boys pan out to be hidden gems. But Humphries was at least rated and fast.

Occasionally, you get an unknown like Philip Price who surprises, but Price was a walk-on who earned his scholly.

It's just way too much of a coincidence that TWO unranked guys are BOTH hidden gems AND their dad essentially works for Dabo.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Big difference to 2-star Humphries & HUGE coincidence 2 bros


Feb 5, 2014, 3:18 PM

I thought their Dad worked of us and has for a while even when he was not paid to do so. I look forward to seeing his sons play and would have hated for them to play anywhere but Clemson.
I think you should wait to gripe about a young man until he has proved he is not worth a scholarship. We have one on scholarship now that seems to fit that criteria..... Region, has he ever played a down? He was a 4 star recruit out of HS.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Preferred walk-ons, not schollies that could be better used.


Feb 6, 2014, 4:57 PM

I'm fine with the Davis brothers walking on and possibly earning scholarships like anybody else of their caliber. I'm fine with Clemson paying Jeff Davis for his services.

Of course, not all ranked players pan out and some unranked walk-ons become contributors.

But when you have a limited number of scholarships, it seems like foolish nepotism to risk 2 scholarships on 2 unranked players. It's not like they were invisible, playing for some unknown high school.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Preferred walk-ons, not schollies that could be better used.


Feb 6, 2014, 5:00 PM

when they are both 6-6 and 280 in a couple of years you may eat those words. that is where they are projected. here is an idea. lets let the coaches coach and recruit and we as fans can support them and cheer them on. novice idea i know.

Byron and Brandon Clear were just a few years back-

and the Chancellor brothers were Irish Twins ;)

give razz a break. He hasn't had anything to gripe about in a while He is suffering withdrawal. This opinion of his will probably be wrong also.
