Its time for folks to quit messing with Dabo and whom he recruits or plays. Everytime and i mean EVERYTIME someone doubts Dabo it just blows up in their face and they have to eat crow. So welcome aboard Amir, and thanks for being ALL IN!!

I'm quite certain CM had more to do with that then people
Jan 4, 2015, 8:34 PM
|
|
admit. Part of the problem was CM trying to get a pocket passers-by with limited mobility to run an option game rather than changing the game plan to what said pocket passer was capable of. I kept saying he has the tools, and he does and would make a good NFL backup, but not the decision making capabilities of running an option.

when asked about Watson , Chad body language changes drastically and he begins the "paid his dues" babble that Dabo was spewing. Chad wanted Watson on the field and Dabo overrode his decision.

and while I like CM, he trained our current OC's for 4 years, he's no QB coach. Streeter proved he was a better QB coach in just a couple of weeks with Cole. That doesn't mean that Chad is not a great OC, he's just one that has to have a QB to fit his system.Even Boyd was going somewhere else each off season to get trained by other experts.

I'm pretty sure Dabo recruited Watson. Am I wrong...did you recruit him? Dabo has a pretty recruiting record. I'd agree there are likely more highly rated players who would love the scholly, but I think I'll let Dabo do his job.

All this bitchin and moanin is really stupid. Praise Dabo and staff for having the 4th ranked recruiting class. Get pissed at Dabo and staff for taking a legacy recruit who MAY turn out to be pretty good and productive in the end. #### and let the staff do their jobs without having to listen to all this whining. Some of you sound like a bunch of coots. Hint Hint.

It doesn't hurt to have a collection of NFL talent that continues to associate with the program after they have moved on. It's good for recruiting to be able to show off a cadre of former NFL players when recruits come to visit. This is a big picture type deal. It's part of selling the Clemson program as a "family" which so many of our elite recruits have pointed out as being a special factor about Clemson. So while it may look like we are doing James Trapp a favor, in reality this move is just as beneficial to Clemson as it is to the Trapp family.

And say what you will about the wonderful players that have contributed to this most recent team, but guys like Grady and Cole are almost from a different era of CU football recruiting. We should be having to take less and less chances on recruits with this continued success.

who had been a Freshman All-American and was considered our best DE at the time.
And despite being behind Sapp and several other underclassmen as a reserve Branch still had the 4th most tackles for loss in the 2009 season as a sophomore.
But I forgot.....he didn't contribute until his junior year according to the self-appointed expert.

Just because he's James Trapp son doesn't mean he doesn't deserve a scholarship. Plus he's from Daniel and Dabo wants to keep the flow of talent from Daniel to Clemson open. Trapp played in the Shrine bowl this year and surprised the coaches with his talent. It could turn out this kid is a steal, but we shouldn't take him because his dad works at Clemson? Sorry I can't wrap my mind around that logic.

Trap's always had a Greyshirt offer .Question was, would he take the full ride he had offered at other schools.This has nothing to do with Fields, the Bama Recruit calling our coaches or any other DB over out there. He start school next January, redshirt his freshman year and contribute his last 3 years on campus. Besides all this,he looked better than all the more highly rated DB's at the Shrine Bowl this year. Our coaches know how to recruit.

We lose higher ranked players each year when they decide to transfer. We must backfill their spots with walk-on players. I doubt that Trapp will transfer with his family connections. Basically, he will be filling one of the scholarships that a walk-on would have.

Who takes the scholarship of the player when he transfers after spring practice? More talented players will be ahead of Trapp and he will more than likely stay due to his family connections. Therefore, you will not need to spend a scholarship on a walk-on. Trapp is way better than 99.9% of our current walk-on players.

Also just because a kid is not highly rated, does not mean they can't play. This kid is underrated, and will be a solid backup in a few years and this is Dabo staying true to program being about family by bringing a legacy. This kind of thing happens alot, at almost every school so this not the first time Dabo has done this.

Those guys don't provide depth. They play or leave to play elsewhere. You need guys who are satisfied with playing a reserve role.

So let's not take 3 stars for depth we should instead take unranked players great .

We have walk-on players on scholarship as well.
Jan 4, 2015, 8:00 PM

It's not because they are more talented than others that we signed. It's because others have decided to leave and freed up a scholarship for them. We will still sign enough 4 star guys to fill a two deep. Even 3 star guys (some not all) that are 3rd string will leave and walk-on players will take their scholarship. Trapp is more likely to stay and eliminate that one walk-on player scholarship. Trapp is better than your average walk-on.

I'm not saying this kid will be all world, but the coaches know what they are doing. This kid would not have gotten the chance to greyshirt, if the coaches thought he couldn't contribute to the program in a positive way.

They may never expect Trapp to be more than a 5th or 6th corner who can play special teams. It's still better than the 3/4 star player who is starting at Tennessee State after transferring.

Higher ranked players don't provide depth when they leave because they're 3rd string. Trapp will be less willing to leave if he is 3rd string. He is much better than any walk-on that would take the scholarship of the higher ranked player who leaves after spring.

We should only sign 4 and 5 star players. Never an unrated, 1 star, 2 star or 3 star. Really? Why don't you let the coaches recruit and you stick to whatever your occupation is! How many outstanding players would we have never signed if you had anything to do with it?

schollies. Dabo has basically just self imposed probation on us. The last time USuC got busted they lost three schollies per year for three years. Dabo just topped that. We're losing three schollies for 4-5 years on these guys who will NEVER see the field. They arent even worthy of practice squad tackling dummies. Add in Ryan Carter and that's 4 wasted schollies.

Jan 4, 2015, 8:35 PM

maybe we only took him to get in better with Peake, but he wouldve been an ACC player either way. But nobody can deny the davis twins are wasted schollies. They arent even rated theyre so bad. Same as this Trapp kid. If they want to come to Clemson, let them walk-on and see if they can EARN a scholly. Their parents certainly have more than enough money to pay the instate tuition price. We dont need to handicap ourselves as a program by throwing away 4+ schollies for 4-5 years. Thats worse than an NCAA self-imposed probation.

No, whats worse is having a Tiger pulse of 34% when you claim to be a tiger fan and trying to tell our staff how to find and develop talent. These type of players are needed in every program. The kid is fast, does cover and is not yet PROMISED a scholarship. Get over it.

AllTimeClemson - doubt if you could identify a good foot....

ball player if they were standing next to a bread basket. So what if these guys never hit the field in a game - and that is something you have no idea whether they will do or not. They can contribute in so many other ways, even if they are scout team players. If you think recruiting football players is scanning through some recruiting magazine and counting stars, then your team would be like Miami and Florida State several years back when it appeared that is how they were selecting football players to recruit.

He started every game in Div 1 college football, and according to the experts in here he was a wasted scholly, used to get Peake, not sure what Dabo saw in him, the same #### opinions that are posted today about Trapp. Since Dabo has been there 4 straight 10 win seasons and BCS game, numerous guys graduating college and even some going to the NFL. I Trust in Dabo and people need to quit bad mouthing a kid hasnt even stepped foot on campus

Basically AllTimeClemson is just one of the butthurt fans(?) that can't accept that the school didn't ask them who to hire. Dabo could win the national championship 10 years in a row and these losers would still find something to gripe about.
