Way to go out there and set the record straight Robert!!! Any "requests" I'm sure Dabo will at least entertain but keep family business in the family...

What are you referring to? I'm in the dark here. Did RN clarify his position? Any info appreciated.

a local sports guy
and say exactly what he means, not allow AJC to stir the pot and cause trouble just because he choose Clemson over UGA or another SEC team
it's nothing but the AJC causing trouble, Dabo should tell him not to speak to anyone from the AJC in the future

after this interview

RN should know they will twist his words. Everyone is wondering why he committed to CLEMSON. Stop the rumors and all by stopping the interviews and saying that you're 100% committed to the tigers

I'm assuming the fact that he says they twisted his words mean something. Also, he retweeted this:
@WCBBALLC4: @Robertusmagna_1 let the haters hate. Media is a b@tch. Go Tigers! Yo boi Carter knocks em out 4 sho
Which seems to be a sign of approval

It's the AJC, what more would you expect?

Nkemdiche isn't going anywhere. He is signing with Clemson. Why can't people accept that.

If all of the bashers would take the time to look at the article that the AJC writes a reply would not even be warranted. When the article came out with the headline "Nkemdiche to Clemson.......Did That Really Happen" is plenty enough to see the agenda. If you look at the High school rankings. Grayson is ranked as the Number 2 team in the nation. One player will not have you in the number two position in all of High School football. Talent is all over the field at the school. Just saying............

I agree. For a Junior starter at a AAAAA, undefeated Georgia state champion program to not be "D-1 material", I had to check out his highlights for myself. I went in very skeptical but, I must say, came away rather impressed. I've seen much less impressive film from highly recruited safeties playing against lesser competition.
I'm not saying he'll be heavily recruited by the end of the season or anything, but I have a hard time believing that he's not better than even one guy that is taking up a spot on our roster right now (and the same could be said for most other D-1 teams, IMO).

This type of publicity on this kid is just going to solidify his already firm verbal to Dabo and the Tigers. He is being villified to the tune of "primadonna" and blackmailer and all of these other hateful , uncalled for things. He knows that Tiger Nation has his back....That chip on this player-beast's shoulder is just getting bigger and bigger.

AJC has added the following to original story.
Jul 7, 2012, 9:08 AM

Here's what the AJC added to their earlier story subsequent to the Nkemdiche tweet ... loved the last sentence where they seem determined to leave the pot simmering on the front burner, LOL
UPDATED: On late Friday night, Nkemdiche tweeted “I don’t like the ajc twisting up my words.” I then contacted Robert to see what specifically he was referring to in this article, where he felt like was misinterpreted, and offered to make any clarifications. With this story being picked up nationally, Nkemdiche was apparently upset with how he had been portrayed in some of the other blogs. “I didn’t say if Ryan didn’t come [to Clemson] I won’t” — which is true. We reported that a Clemson offer to Ryan Carter would make Robert’s commitment a “done deal,” which is what he had said repeatedly in our previous interview. Despite his Clemson commitment, Nkemdiche is still being pursued by many other suitors because of his elite prospect status. With the “done deal” comment, Big Rob wasn’t making demands out of Clemson, but rather simply trying to help a teammate get a good look. I asked Nkemdiche if there was anything else he wanted to say. “It’s all good … I want Ryan with me.”

Don't expect anything better out of that rag. I am glad he seems to be aggrevated by them. He has 3 other team mates who will be here, as well, and he likes our Coaches and their morals, Clemson's family atmosphere and values, etc. He is solid Clemson Orange, IMO, and the ajc article may have solidified his commitment even more.
