Is Dabo falling in love with "star rankings"? I looked at
Jan 27, 2020, 2:34 PM
|
|
the past 4 Heisman trophy winners and none of these guys were 5 star prospects.
Lamar Jackson - high 3 star/low 4 star
Baker Mayfield - barely even ranked
Kyler Murray - mid level 4 star
Joe Burrow - low 3 star
#1 recruiting classes are great, but I want to see results on the field and in the trophy case.

If he had no 5*, I guess you'd be complaining about that too. Grow up. Trust in Dabo.

I disagree. Because Dabo is usually so slow and selective

when it comes to giving offers, it seems like a good strategy to wait to see how many stars the recruiting services give to guys before recruiting them, especially on the heels of losing his best recruiter Jeff Scott. It seems smart to sit back and wait to see who 247 names their number 1 guy and then go give him an offer. It's about working smarter as opposed to harder and I say kudos to Dabo for taking this approach.

Always gonna be hard having a Heisman winner with so many weapons and the fact Dabo pulls starters to get depth. Oh, and the Heisman lost its luster years ago imho.

Other recent Heisman winners =
Tim Tebow- 5* Reggie Bush- 5* Cam Newton- 5* Jameis Winston- 5* Derrick Henry- 5* Matt Leinart- high 4*, #58 OVR Mark Ingram- high 4*, #112 OVR
Let's not forget that Deshaun Watson (5*) and Tua (5*) both could have very easily won in 2016 and 2018, respectively

mean that he won the Natty every year. It was actually only 5 natties in a 10 year stretch.
So we will see. I like the Muschamp approach. Diamond in the rough type and then coach 'em up!

I don't think it is the glare from a star that has Dabo enthralled. If anything, it is the blinding glare coming from those two natty trophies. I hope we get so many of them, they will have to turn off the power on Clemson campus because the glare from those trophies will light up the whole campus.

One of the most consistent stats out there is that if you don't have a top 10 recruiting class, your odds of winning a Natty Championship are drastically reduced. So no, he's not "falling in love" with star rankings, he's going after the best players. As Jimmy Johnson used to say "It's not about the X's and O's, it's about the Jimmy's and Joe's."

George Rogers won the Heisman and never won against Clemson. Jackson won the Heisman and never won against Clemson. Mayfield won the Heisman and never won against Clemson.
Winning Heisman and beating Clemson is hard to do.

Dabo recruits players with character not stars. Where have you been for the last decade? He just happens to be getting a lot of 4 and 5 star character guys now.

the day where clemson fans would complain about getting highly rated recruits nationwide. At that point you're just looking for a reason to be unhappy.
