Straight from @RecruitingAJC

"Colleges that recruit against Clemson will print out those message boards and say "look what those fans say about a kids mom".
How I hate AJC.

Every fan site has stuff like this coaches could use. I wouldn't put much stock in it. For instance, the Geno's mom stuff hasn't seemed to be a factor since that infamous recruiting year.
The coaches know how to manage the information/disinformation stuff, much to the AJC's chagrin I'm sure.

Carvell is just upset cause he is now banned from several high school campuses in Georgia...gotta go after someone....he picks Clemson, since it is out of state.....his story has run its course....and all he is doing is hurting RN at this point....

It's a shame how far that once respected newspaper has fallen in a desperate search to compete in the new media landscape.

Good luck proving the comments are real

and not some fan impostor or straight up photoshopped. I think recruits are smarter than the AJC wants to believe by printing ######## like that.

Doesn't matter. All schools have stuff they use.

It is funny how they are not pointing out the race riots at MS though. It also would be just as funny if his Mom got upset over message board material while visiting MS just days after the riots. I figure riots, coaches cutting player and a host of other things rank a lot higher as recruitment fodder than message board material.

These comments will not change one commitments mind. Everyone seems to think RN was coming to Clemson. He loved it at camp and committed, then each and every week since then he's came up with one excuse after another not to be here for a game.
Seems his Mom has been set on his going to MS from day 1, refused to even visit another school. The only other supposed visit was UGA when then played MS.I don't give a crap if some one did point the comments out to her. While"pretending" to want what's best for her son, she had the whole family at MS just 4 days after the riots.

we are a message board... whos to say those same "other collages" are not the ones coming here and posing as TIGER fans and posting crap???
Also, a paper is suppose to be unbiased... which they are not, they twist words and misquote.
It amazes me how they seemingly want to pick a fight with us...we have a GIANT fan base in Atlanta. they are really hurting their bottom line and will loose even more local subscribers from this.

Clemson, at least those that actually take the time to involve themselves in their children's future and maturation process. My wife and I hauled ourselves up and down the east coast visiting schools with our kids, taking time out from work and foregoing vacations to ensure that our children were getting the necessary exposure and proper understanding of the environment to fit their own individual needs. I doubt many mothers can actually even relate to Mama Nkimdeche's approach to this to ever be offended.

My Two Cents

First Penny - There is a lot of knee jerk reaction on this board by non-imposter, board regulars on here that in infantile. Few if any of us knows the dynamic of the Nkemdiche family and therefore have no legitimate reason to make assumptions about RN, his mom, dad, etc, etc, etc. It is definitely true that some of us in here need to take our thumbs out of our mouths and grow up.
Second Penny - If you are a recruit or a parent of a recruit and you allow something as innocuous and virtually irrelevant as a fan blog site to be a major factor in which school you select, well then you are an idiot. You don't usually know who is commenting (real fan or poser) and even if it is a real fan this is only representative of the type of fan who would visit and post on a blog site anyway. Stop majoring in the minors and let real factors determine your decisions.
Extra point - Carvell and the AJC are degenerates

I never keep up with who the poster is that I am reading, but I would bet that SOME of the ones who talk about imposters are the ones who have posted SOME of the knee-jerk negative comments. Looking for Cover
If they want to come to Clemson great, if not, best of luck. Not the end of either Clemson or the recruit
Take the lead of the Coach! positive & optimistic.
