We're going after Lorenzo Featherston (DE) and Josh Malone (WR). Both are top prospects.

When it comes to recruiting strategy, Dabo needs all the help that he can get.

Sammy's scholarship is already being counted in recruiting. I think we are also recruiting more players than we have spots left. I don't think Beasley leaving early will change much except for what position we recruit for the last couple of spots.

Look at how many Tigers have left early and were a bust. Beasley is not ready and Sammy sure isn't either IMHO. They are great for college but need more experience to be ready for the NFL.

Nuk Hopkins was physically ready, thus he's having success.
But, if they get good draft grades, the money is too much to pass up. Even with the new lower rookie salaries.

LOL WUT? Sammy could've been a top10 pick 2 years ago.
Nov 1, 2013, 12:42 PM
[ in reply to Them leaving is a big mistake ] |

He's been NFL ready since the moment he got to campus. How is he going to improve here? The only thing Sammy needs to do for the NFL is learn a new play book and develop timing and a feel for his new QB. Those things aren't going to happen at CU.
Beasley is probably ready too. You could tell from the weigh-in video at fall camp that his body is basically maxed out. He's not going to get much (if any) bigger or stronger here. He's an explosive athlete that's very fast but also very strong for his size. He can rush, he can chase down QBs from behind, and he will probably be more than capable for covering TEs as an OLB/DE hybrid in a 3-4 somewhere. What else does he need from Clemson?

They are definitely ready, especially Sammy. Beasley could stay and learn more since he has not been in the position that long, and maybe gain a little more weight (if possible)... But they are both ready.

Does Vic B have the size yet to go out after this season? Seems like he needs another season and quite a few more pounds.

Vic leaving? Would be a big mistake for him.
Nov 1, 2013, 1:25 PM
[ in reply to Re: Losing Vic B. and Sammy W most likely next year, that will ] |

Vic is 235 lbs. How many 235 lb. DEs do you see in the NFL? That's right. Zero! If he leaves, that will be a HUGE mistake on his part.
I'm not saying this just because I want him back, saying it because he's not ready at 235 lbs. Those beasts that play OT in the league would carve him up.

he's rated there in the draft.' When the money hit the table we'll see that Beasley isn't going first round.
Sammy is another story. Nobody is really talking about Sammy this year. He got more attention from the guys who pretend to know about draft placements his freshman year. I guess Sammy going first round is a given now, huh?
Sammy goes if his family needs the help and Vic stays to develop into a first rounder.
