As a high school sophomore, he handled Nkemdiche...

Add in the development that he's already had, plus what he'll get at Clemson, and it's an awesome thought.

lmao.
someone needs to teach him that when he throws the DE to the ground, you drive them into the ground with your shoulder and then just lay right on top of 'em.
I can't wait for this kid to start playing here. We definitely look to be turning the corner. The stable of running backs we have is going to have a huge problem figuring out which hole to run through.
Not bad Dabo....

There is no chance this kid would ever flip right? He seems like a solid young man.
I hope we can have another 10 win season but we may have a few bumps next season but hopefully nothing that would make anyone rethink things.
Excited to have him become a Tiger!

Well so is that Tuttle kid and he isn't considered a lock
Feb 5, 2014, 10:46 PM
|

The Tuttle kid has family connections as well and he is not a guaranteed lock. Jay Rome's kid went to UGA so you never know.
Would love to get as many legacy players as possible especially from the early 80s period.

This kid is a what they call a LOCK. Clemson is the only place he wants to be. A Clemson fan his whole life. He is a lock!!! And I don't think there is a better player out there right that I would want watching my blind side if I were a QB. And if I'm a RB, I'm sticking on his back side, he will be pushing everything in is his path out of the way... One of our RB just maybe a heisman RB.

The kid has a the mindset of a high motor aggressive linebacker. He seeks and destroys everything in his path. This kid doesn't quit until he finds something to steamroll or finish what he started. Great athletic ability. He's has a great first step, can move and get out side pulling or screens as well as down field for run support with good speed for a player of his sides. WOW!! Life in future for Clemson's Qbs and Runningbacks look promising. Just a start of shaping our OL. Great recruiting coaches.

The really awesome thing about this guy is that our staff didn't have to recruit Mitch. A 1982 National Championship ring wearing uncle Dan Benish has groomed and recruited Mitch to Clemson his entire life. The only thing our coaches had to do to get this kid was to offer him. He has been a Tiger from birth. He has dreamed about playing in DV his whole life. We owe Dan Benish 5 stars of thank you's for this beast of an OT.

ESPN will drop him to #5 -- because he chose non-SEC school
Feb 17, 2014, 1:18 PM

Betcha. I know for sure he will drop to 2 or 3 because of that.
