That's a good quote right there
"I only went to Clemson once and I got a good feel and I am going back to make sure that feeling has not changed plus my uncle lives fifteen minutes away so I would get to see him."

That leads me to believe his decision is already made... and he just picked his last visit to be Clemson over Bama so he could see his uncle.

It's not made. Michigan is leading but it can be surmounted.

Would like to be optimistic however the chips are stacked pretty high for Harbaugh...
- Former Coach is on staff - 2 former teammates already on the team - Best friend on the recruiting trail (in which he took multiple visits with) Kareem Walker is already on campus - Another great friend and teammate during fresh/soph years,DT Dwumfour, is committed - His current teammate in this class, Donald Stewart, has UM as his leader - Took his 4th visit to UM (the 2nd to last week of visits) when he still couldn't decide whether he wanted to visit Bama or Clemson
Its an enormous uphill battle at this point, especially when a big thing with recruiting is relationships. It seems like there may be too many relationships in favor of the other guys

Not that enormous. I'd say about 50-50 right now. Will change day to day.

I'm not so sure about that Lou...Michigan has had 8 decommits in the last 2 weeks over 'communication problems' with Harbaugh and company. I don't think Mich. has the pull everyone thinks it has. Harbaugh not honoring offers reeks of Muschamp lying to Rashan and his mom about where he's committed to coach. She's a very sharp lady. I doubt she see's Michigan in the same light the pundits do.

You act like he's some kid living on the streets and the only way to see his uncle is if Clemson pays for it. He comes from a good family and if he wanted to see his uncle he would just go see his uncle. He'd fit great at Clemson as a young man as well as an athlete. He's not going to waste his last OV.

Nonsense...his uncle lives in Anderson, not France. They have these 'road' things that allow people to go in 2 directions anytime they want.
I take the man at his word, he came to Clemson because he was more interested than in Alabama.
Why do so many Clemson fans seem so willing to under sell Clemson? Why is it hard to believe that he would come to Clemson on his last OV because he's interested in what Clemson has to offer? You know, Clemson...played in the National Championship?

If we fail to land Gary it may be because he is a city kid who has always lived in an urban environment and may not see the beauty of our rural campus. Paramus is only about twenty miles from Manhatten and we certainly can't match them for 'bright lights'. Hopefully this isn't important for him I wonder if he has ever seen a live cow? lol

None of the schools are 'bright lights' cities/towns. He wants the right college experience...all around.

Ann Arbor perhaps isn't bright lights as compared with Manhattan but it is a city of about 150,000 and as close to Detroit as Clemson is to Anderson. As I said, perhaps this isn't important to him and the fact he is taking his time looks good for our Tigers

This wasn't a conversation about 'best'. It was intended to be big city vs small college town. Sorry I didn't make that clear

us will live to see the day that we lose a recruit to Michigan and the recruit says "Ann Arbor's just so close to Detroit...I couldn't pass that up." 
Seriously, I don't think any of his remaining schools are "big town" schools, so I'd doubt that matters to him.

But the difference between yall and Michigan is Michigan actually needs him badly. Clemson could definitely use Gary but that Dline will be A1 with or w/o him with lawrence wilkins and huggins. Maybe Gary will sign with Clemson to form the best dline in the nation but If I had to bet money I'd definitely bet mines on Michigan for this one.

I think his mom could probably get a job as a talent manager
Jan 29, 2016, 12:24 PM

after she's had to manage Rashan's schedule the last year or so.
Handling a celebrity's schedule would be nothing compared to balancing school, football, visits, coaches calling non-stop, etc.

I have always wondered how parents do it. As protective as we are over our children it would be difficult to see them making their own decision when you know 2/3 of what everyone is telling them is straight up BS.

Gary is a lock for CLEMSON. He smiles like he's already a TIGER. Reminds me of Tyrone Crowder. We're going to enjoy having him at CLEMSON.

I am sure someone on the boards knows this, but will current Tigers be around this weekend to help in the recruiting effort? Like Shaq, DW4, Wayne, etc...? I assume yes.

Just listening to this I feel like his decision has been made. Whether he chooses Clemson or not he would be a great fit here with us, but if not I wish him the best of luck wherever he goes (probably Michigan.)
