Its not like NC State has ever been stellar at recruiting. I would think just about any of their commits would rather come to Clemson if offered. It appears to be that way now. Are these good recruits? Did we not offer to these guys early on? Why now?

Both of these are kids that our new coach recruited for NC

St. We have had 1 DB transfer and also a couple of WR's decommit. Every recruit won't be a 4 or 5 star.

Really showing a lot of integrity taking kids away from a school he recruited them to just a short time ago. Wow this guy should really fit in with the whole you either committed or not school of thought Dabo has. Seems really scummy to do this.

Re: You're an idiot!!! Dabo's philosophy is about the kid

either getting on board or choosing somewhere else, either way don't matter, just make a decision. This kid is doing just that! Always wanted to go to Clemson, now he has a chance! I have a lot more respect for him for being up front and saying this was his intention than I do for that TURD, Robinson everybody stressed out over for weeks while he kept flip flopping and playing it up!

Eight thumbs up??? Wow, are there really Clemson fans that feel this way or are the cooters just jumping on this post?
Did McDonalds close due to the weather? That would explain all the trolls today!

Regardless of any other factors - anytime you can weaken a division rival it is a good move.

The most obvious reason is...
Jan 25, 2013, 8:32 AM
|
|
that we've put all this stock in a D-backs coach. If he wanted these guys while he was at NCS why wouldn't he want them now?
How could we honest feel good about hiring him then tell him the players he'd selected to run his defensive scheme won't work now? Would we be telling him he is a pawn or token hire?
My greatest inquiry is why I, who know little to nothing about football, would recognize this and some of you who pretend to know football wouldn't?

I really thought it was low for our coach that transferred

to auburn this year to contact our recruits. I would say the same thing about us contacting the NCST recruits. I say this with a grain of salt though.. What if the recruits initiated the contact and not the coach? Then, I believe it is a fair game. Just saying...

Dabo meets with MacKensie Alexander, two days later it's
Jan 25, 2013, 8:47 AM

announced there is another NCSt DB committ coming in for an official visit 10 days before signing day. From this I deduce that MacKensie Alexander is not coming to CU.

That's an inferrence, not a deduction.

A deduction would be what is actually occurring in this instance:
We just lost a DB transfer two days ago, and we are filling that slot with a DB recruit this weekend.

b/c we gots schollies to burn..seems like a week or so ago
Jan 25, 2013, 8:52 AM
|
|
we only had like 14 or 15 recruits and 25 spots total available...you can't have holes in recruiting and be successfull. So why not take a chance on a DB...you never know. Was Tye Hill a heavily recruited player? Turned out to be a 1st Round draft pick so you never know.

The ones we've taken so far were evaluated
Jan 25, 2013, 1:05 PM

by the coach that recruited them at NCS then hired by Clemson.
