If a recruit really shouted f Clemson

FGF would already have links/vids in multiple posts getting off to it. Sounds like a bad rumor.

We really should not speculate until it is verified. Could hurt both parties.

Slow play Dabo Swinney and Clemson at your own peril.

He always has a backup plan, which sometimes (Travis Etienne) turns out to be better than the original (Zamir somebody) plan.

Ettiene and White were not in the same class. We got ETN because of Cordarrian Richardson decommitting or having his scholarship pulled.

Richardson initially enrolled at UCF where he played one year before transferring to Texas A&M.
From a performance standpoint, he really hasn't done much other than in the game against uof6c earlier this year.

The ETN recruiting story has to be one of the best in CU history. We had a pretty good RB committed to us for almost a year and then late in the process backed off because of what happened at his highschool. We move in on ETN with just a month left until NSD and we get Clemson's all time leading TD leader and maybe rushing leader. Crazy how things work out. I could definitely see Trenton Simpson having a similar story before his career is over

You missed a big part of the ETN story.
Dec 16, 2019, 2:50 PM
|

We didn't even know who ETN was 4 weeks before signing day.
Nick Saban called Dabo and said, hey, we're full at RB with commits, but there is this kid in La y'all should reach out to.
Gotta thank Saban for that.

Yes pretty sure you are correct, it wasn't saban but Burns, a staff member. Wonder if we ever sent him a commission check?

No way... In this day and age, if the video existed, it would be out. Even if it was a live stream, somebody would have captured and saved it.
Now, as for the rumors Flowe was badmouthing Clemson while at Miami in regards to it being boring, yeah, I could see that. He's just a young kid, maybe he was trying to show off, but regardless...It's true! Miami has much more entertainment value to offer and I see how some can see Clemson as relatively boring and in the middle of nowhere. There isnt much going on and that works out better for some kids, but others would hate it and be restless.
If glitz and nightlife are really that important, his best bet is just to stay home and go to USC. He can still get out of Upland (which is definitely not LA, as most people think of it) and Eugene isn't much of a step up from Clemson in that regard. At least we have Atlanta nearby. Eugene is certainly more of a city, but still pretty small and isolated (think Athens without Atlanta). I had fun the two times I went but it's hippie central and not for everyone.

I travel there often. While technically Upland is not Los Angeles, effectively it is. It’s a couple of blocks north of Ontario which is most definitely in the greater Los Angeles footprint. Driving around that area you’d never know when you went from Ontario to Rancho Cucomonga, to Chino, to West Covina, to Pasadena, to Los Angeles. Now you can tell that some areas look better maintained or more run down, but unless you live there you don’t know the difference between Inglewood, Redondo Beach and Compton.
......Just like a San Fernando Valley native couldn’t differentiate between Cayce, Forest Acres and Eau Claire. It’s all Columbia.
