Pretty cool that our transfers are 5 star QB and 0 star LB

Kinda reminds me of Watson to Renfrow. 5 star QB throws to walk-on WR.
Dabo grabs a 5 star QB out of the portal and a no-name LB out of the portal. That's a reflection of our program.
We know who the players are regardless of rankings. Sure, some are 5 stars, but some aren't.

I think everyone knows that Hunter Johnson is no longer a 5* QB. He's rated as a low 3* transfer.

Well, Dabo didn't go out and grab Hunter from the portal. He's not a 5* , he was listed as a 3* in the portal. They reclassify either up or down from their original HS rating. Hunter was coming as an assistant.

Hunter was registered in the portal and grabbed him so spin it however you like. BTW the portal is simply an inter web database for players looking to transfer. Coaches and players both reach out with interest via phone call or text, not the mystical portal.
Your idea that Hunter does not count as a signing out of the portal is silly plus shows your bias

Regardless of how he got here (portal/no portal) or his stars (5/3 or otherwise) - if he can consistently throw the ball and not have the “deer in the headlights” awareness - he’d be 110% better than what we had last season. Throw stones if you want - I saw what I saw and why we only had a running game.

Re: Pretty cool that our transfers ... 0 star LB

The details about this Jesiah Carlton guy sure are interesting.
First of all, he was not invited to come to Clemson as an assistant coach (like Hunter Johnson).
Second, he's got good size and was at least physically fit enough to play in small college FB.
Next, if his self-proclaimed speed is legitimate, then that is probably among the reasons why W.Goodwin and Dabo were interested.
Finally, if J.Carlton is truly a team leader (of a leader on the defense) because of his work habits and awareness skills while on the field, then at worst his joining us as a Grad Transfer isn't a bad thing.
At best, he'll be a genuine contributor at LB (a position group where we are thin).
