The latest decootment was not by player's choice.

It's way worse. The kid was processed. Told to take a hike and basically his commitment meant nothing to Rugchamp.
Kids will see through this. Clemson has never backed off a kid once he's been committed. A commitment means just that, from both parties.
That's why recruits don't visit other schools when committed to Clemson. They know they will not be processed.

Hopefully, he ends up at Georgia so he can beat them every year.

Coot idiots claim the "coaches leveled with him about playing time". LOL. Clemson is gonna kick the crap out of the chickens this year with no let up at the end so make it look closer than it really was.

Here's a direct quote from TBS:
"This is a telltale sign that we're recruiting like the big boys now."
Hahahahahahahaha.

Cory Lambert (so?) told me that when he committed to us

his junior year in high school we promised him that if he had a career disabling injury for the rest of his high school playing days he still had a full ride to Clemson. Speaks volumes for us.

Muschamp burnt a TON of bridges with this sort of behavior at Florida. In his defense, oversigning and cutting is kind of standard SEC behavior. At Florida, you have the luxury of doing that; there's a bazillion high schools in the state. You make somebody mad, Oh Well.
In the state of South Carolina, there's a lot fewer. A huge part of the reason Spurrier's recruiting dropped off a cliff towards the end of his tenure was the vast amount of bridges Spurrier & Co. had burned across the state, with over-signing, player-cutting, and just pointless, facepalm-inducing jerk moves towards high school coaches in general. I've personally bumped into 4-5 high school coaches who were Carolina-leaning who couldn't stand the man, which means he was making enemies in mass droves. Again, at UF, you could get away with that. But there's just vastly fewer high schools in South Carolina and you just can't act that short-sightedly here. That Muschamp has apparently learned that little from Spurrier's mistakes is...not encouraging, from a South Carolina standpoint. He's also not doing well with boosters, from what I'm hearing, which was another shortcoming that got him axed down soonest there at UF whereas a more popular guy might have gotten at least another year' reprieve.
Credit where credit is due, though, Shawn Elliott was usually not lumped in with a lot of Spurrier's gang - the worst offenders were Spurrier, Spurrier Junior, and Whammy, apparently - and a lot of coaches apparently still thought at least reasonably well of him despite how Spurrier's inner circle conducted themselves. While Elliot did not strike me as another Dabo during his half-year as Carolina's interim, you still wonder if he'd be better than Muschamp...though the fact that he lost to Citadel will probably follow him the rest of his career.

The kid's statement was pretty damming. He blamed the coaches for him decomitting.
