Man, that speaks volumes when one cannot get in to uSUC as a football player. The stickler for them was the spelling portion and this question.
Spell the following: C_T and it proved to be far too difficult. Then again CLowney got in with a reported 450 SAT, only because he maintained a B average in HS,wink,wink.

Don't you get like 400 points on the SAT just for doing your name and personal information correctly?

I once heard that when Joe Namath was a high school senior in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, that Penn St stopped recruiting him because he couldn't pass his college entrance exam. Alabama then came calling, but they too found he couldn't pass his college entrance exam. Being creative, Bear Bryant requested his admissions officer provide Namath an alternative exam that would better demonstrate his scholastic aptitude. So he travelled to Pennsylvania to administer the exam, which consisted of a single question: "What is the capital of Pennsylvania?" After deep thought, Namath wrote down his answer and submitted his exam for grading. Upon reading his answer of "Hershey" the admissions officer scratched his head for a moment, then pulled out a state map. He carefully measured the distance from the state capital Harrisburg to Hershey to be 20 miles, wrote a passing grade of 80 at the top of the test, and congratulated Namath on being accepted to play football at The University of Alabama.

on Friday morning ,after Dabo had told him Prep School on Thursday Night. By about 5:18 PM Friday, Ellis Johnson told him not to worry
https://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/12/sports/ncaafootball/12clowney.html
“A lot of D’s on there,” Davis said of Clowney’s transcript, adding that Clowney had performed particularly poorly in his earlier years at South Pointe. Speaking of students who had enrolled at Hargrave, Davis said “it was pretty common” for a nonqualifier to have a transcript like Clowney’s.

they're @ 24 without these 2 and will be dropping further as others pick up players and DeCootments start.
Guess that explains Chump crying about recruiting yesterday. HE KNOWS!

Shaq was a Prep school kid

The SEC is famous for sign and place, in Junior College. Something that Dabo would never do,unless they change the rules to give them a full 3 years at Big Boy School. I'm pretty sure Dabo would still take a kid that Graduated HS but still needed a year/semester at Prep School to be College ready.
I also apologize ,I didn't explain it good enough in the OP. One kid is not expected to Graduate HS, the other is not expected to complete required work in JC.

That’s funny.
I’m still waiting on Pickens to change his mind. This kid seriously isn’t still serious about going to that dump is he!?

Clearly academics are not a priority for their players.

Just say'n.
Whenever I hear that a recruit is considering Clemson AND SCAR, and they say academics is a priority, I shake my head and wonder how SCAR is still in the discussion.
