I sure would feel better if there were 4 or 5 OLinemen in this next class.

Unless there are redshirt plans, or 5* on 2020

that are silent (or the staff is super confidant in signing) we really should have another O lineman, or two.

I agree 100%. I do understand, though, that the staff has the necessary focus on OL needs. They know where the game is won. OL commits will be in place by NSD.

Isn’t it a general rule of thumb to take 3-4 OLmen per class?

Still awhile until NSD, but things also aren't looking great

on the OL front going forward. You can see our offers here:
https://247sports.com/college/clemson/Season/2019-Football/Offers/
I'm far from a recruiting guru, but the majority of these guys have already committed elsewhere and the only one i know of that seems realistic is 3* Cooper Dawson out of Hannahan. Maybe there's someone that's still off the radar or maybe Dabo and company can flip a guy, but right now it seems like if they want to sign more than ~2 OL in this class they are really going to have to reach.
Things just didn't work out real well for us in regards to OL this year.

Caldwell is our weak link in the chain of recruiting. Period

Coach Caldwell is a fine coach, but he should consider retirement after the season because his recruiting is simply not up to par year to year. Dabo needs a younger fired up coach who relates to young linemen who want the Clemson experience.
Go Tigers ??!!

probably only going to sign 1 more(obviously hoping for Webb) but possibly 2 more especially if they want to not have to go after 5 next year

Well they can only bring in 25 total
Sep 4, 2018, 4:34 PM

if everyone is expected to qualify, then they only have room for one more...The only other option is greyshirting a couple of the guys
So I guess the next questions are...who is a long shot to qualify? or, who are they planning on greyshirting?

Can it be scientifically explained? What is your hypothesis?

true O-Tackle on the current roster, vast majority are much better suited for playing O-Guard, unfortunately.
