4-star Clemson LB target commits to Georgia
Four-star Salisbury, North Carolina linebacker Jalon Walker picked Georgia over Clemson, as well as North Carolina, Sunday afternoon. Clemson had been considered a favorite going into the week with multiple 247Sports Crystal Ball projections, but indications started to go Georgia's way midweek. The Read Update » |

With kids that young, a bag of cash will win out 9 of 10 times, like it has done this time!!!

That or the keys to a new car. These kids just never learn. uga got as close as they’re going to get to winning a Championship. Keep winning the off season ones while Clemson and Bama win them on the field. ????

With the log jam at LB, and 5th and 6th year vets mucking up playing time and the depth chart at LB, as much as I love Clemson Football, I get it. When you have young talent like Trotter not getting a sniff of p.t., it's an issue.

Hopefully Trotter plays the entire 2nd half just about every game.

To me Clemson misses Jeff Scott way more than people have thought. He was a top notch recruiter and a relentless worker. Wish he was back in more ways than one.

It feels like somebody took my heart and dropped it into a bucket of boiling tears. And, at the same time, somebody else is hitting my soul in the crotch with a frozen sledgehammer. And then a third guy walks in and starts punching me in the grief bone.

This is a very frustrating loss seeing how he was leaning towards us the entire time. UGA seems to get these kids favoring other schools a few days before they comitt. I think we have a pretty good idea of what's going on. Hopefully, this lights a fire in Dabo and he sends a message in Charlotte.

At the bottom of the McDonald’s bag there were a few extra loose fries. They were awesome and made the difference.

I guess the way the kid looks at it a new car or a new job for family member(s), new house, etc., looks pretty enticing.

It's not the kids in those cases. The parents would have to sign off.

It's probably the kid, too. He'll be the one with the new wheels and happy parents.

I’m beginning to think this has to do more with Venables and tartlet now being a sophomore. If he is going to ever start taken a head coaching job serious it going to be in the next couple of years. You can bet that is being used against us in defensive recruiting.

I think you are spot on. He was ready to go to Auburn and pulled back and hasnt been heard from since the Sugar Bowl. That's the only thing that seems to make sense.

Ready to go to Auburn huh? So tell me? what did y'all have over at Venables family Sunday dinner? I mean? I'm seeing two guys with a TNet score combined of 700-ish that seem to know more than the rest of us... Seems legit. But ok, I will play along. Wanna know why we have not heard from BV? Who knows? If I HAD to guess? and seeing that he us one of the most intense coaches I have seen, if 8 had to guess he had been in the film room figuring how to stop a whole lotta Jawga running game and play action since the clock stuck zero against Ohip St. I have no more knowledge than anyone else? but between recruiting, spring ball and going deep in the post season every year, he kinda stays busy. Or he was going to Auburn...smh.

I do agree negative recruiting is being used by other schools. I also believe some greenbacks are being handed out. A couple of my UGA friends have heard whispers.
But I don’t believe Brent is leaving Clemson. I believe the coaching staff is pretty stable. Saban, Smart, and some other coaches would throw their mother under a bus for a recruit.
And I think the Transfer Portal has hurt our recruiting somewhat. We have lost several players this past 12 months through the portal. I wonder what affect that may have had.
Maybe we should try to be a little more positive on Tigernet. I believe coaches read it and use some post to use against us in recruiting. I believe recruits read Tigernet as well as other Clemson sites to get an idea about the fan base.
I have 110% Faith in Dabo and his staff that we will finish strong. I guess this is a difficult year because we are losing Trevor Lawrence and ETN.

Seems odd. But I will say that the Jawga LBs get a lot of hype, like that kid they had two seasons back. Or maybe he just likes his Big Mac with lots of leafy greens in the bag..heck, no idea. I know nothing more than most of us. Maybe Kirby really is just that good of a recruiter. I mean, we sure know it's not his coaching!

I wonder how much this cost UGA! If they are dirty and I believe they are based on a couple of friends who are huge UGA fans and Alumni expressed their concern about Kirby’s recruiting success as a fairly new HC. Kirby may be to Smart for his own good. If the Dawgs are dirty I hope the NCAA uses UGA as an example.
My concern is it is going to be swept under Uga’s dog house!
IMO UGA has snagged more than their share of 4 & 5 star players. To turn some players they have I can’t help but believe Money was not part of the recruiting package.
I think Bama is dirty too but IMO they own the NCAA and have for a long time. So they can do what they want. UGA , North Carolina. Auburn, LSU, OSU and a few other schools have the right contacts that somehow has given them a lifetime supply of get out of Jail Free cards courtesy of the NCAA.
I posted about a years or so ago that outside forces would do their best to try and bring Dabo and the Clemson Football program down using any possible means. It’s unfortunate that we lost some big time recruits especially to UGA and Bama. The lose of all of these recruits to me should send up red flags ??????to the NCAA. Even though he is now in the NFL the media attention about DW could possibly be an issue other schools are using to negatively recruit against us.
I would rather Clemson earn their recruits, their wins and loses and their National Championships honestly rather than cheat to be Elite.
Thank you Coach Sweeney and staff for running a clean program with character and integrity and for your love and concern you show the staff, the players, their families and the Clemson Tiger Fans. Thank you for caring more about wins and loses and for putting more energy into developing Quality Productive Graduates, Great Citizens, Great Husbands and Fathers, and all around great Men. Men who love Clemson. And as Alumni and former player’s represent Tiger Nation with Class and who are willing to give back to Others.
PS:
I wonder how many of these recruits who chose other schools over Clemson will end up in the infamous Transfer Portal??? Or wish they had selected Clemson instead.
