What are our chances with this kid? It seems like we (and

USuCk) just weren't very interested. Rivals is gaga over the kid but he's way less recruited than you'd expect a 4-Star WR to be. I do know he had better numbers than Shaq Roland this year...

I think he's a very good player.....

but neither Clemson nor $CU really has the room for another WR in the 2012 class. The young man has really become a victim of the numbers game which is one of the disadvantages and risks in dragging out the recruiting process all the way up to signing day.

SCar did offer him recently after saying they were full at WR. Clemson told him early on that they were only taking 1 WR and Hopper took that spot.

I was about to say the exact samething. Some of these kids put to much into the stardom of the process. Somebody should have taught these kids about that the old saying, strike when the iron is hot.

I think the last thing we need is another wide receiver. I think we should be going after LBs, DBs, DEs, and DTs, oh and O-line.

My source said that he is going to Wake Forest
Jan 24, 2012, 11:08 AM

He is the assistant coach at Gaffney. Davis has a pretty good head on his shoulders and probably thinking about life outside of football. Wake is a good academic school also.

If Clemson ends up with a extra Ship, he will likely get it
Jan 24, 2012, 11:12 AM

Otherwise, rumor has it he will sign with Wake or NC State.

There are no grade issues. Young man is on the honor roll and a hard worker in the class room.
HE is a high school beast, who may grow into a productive college WR. He lacks the true speed (despite what some numbers are reported as) to be elite o the D1 level and that may likely keep him from ever going farther.
But he is a 5* character kid, a 5* worker, and a good football player. I coached him in little league. He wants to be a Tiger. Publicly we do not have room, but he has been told not to committ anywhere else before NSD.

He wants to be a Tiger and Clemson will offer him provided they have an extra/unused ships as signing day approaches.

With our defense on the field so much because of our fast paced scoring offense, we need them.

I want some quality ones. The fact that we have so many but so few ever see the field points to the fact that we did the whole quantity over quality thing. If we really didn't have a need at the DE/DT position then we wouldn't be hearing all the talk about needing freshmen to come in and play right away. Aside from a few players, we don't have QUALITY depth at theose positions.

According to ESPN: For three-star receiver Quinshad Davis (Gaffney, S.C./Gaffney) it’s down to three schools -- Wake Forest, North Carolina and Tennessee, according to his coach Dan Jones.
“Quinshad will visit Tennessee this weekend,” Jones said. “He knows the Vols need receivers and that they have a young quarterback that can really throw the ball.”
Davis, 6-foot-2 and 180-pounds, made an official visit to North Carolina this past weekend. It was a very good and productive visit for Davis and his mother.
“Oh, he had a real good visit,” Jones said. “I think he like coach (Larry) Fedora and that staff. He knows they are going to really throw the football. What he has to get over and what Quinshad has a question with is the probation stuff.”
The one team holding steady with Davis is Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons have done a great job of recruiting him from day one. He made an official visit there earlier this month.
“The bottom line is that Wake Forest has really built that relationship with him,” Jones said. “They are definitely in this thing.”
According to Jones, Davis will make his decision at the high school on national signing day, which is one week from tomorrow. The nation’s No. 51 ranked receiver had a monster senior season, catching 108 passes for over 2,000 yards and 24 scores.
