Townsend speaks out about Clemson choice

Lateek Townsend surprised a lot of people when he announced during the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, but Townsend told TigerNet Tuesday afternoon that he has known for a while that Clemson was the place for him. Full Story »

sounds like a good kid to me. I also like the attitude of playing anywhere the team needs him.

I must admit, I had somewhat of a negative impression

after seeing his "decision" at the all-star game. Now I'm thinking that was just due to excitement, as everything I've heard and read since paints a much different picture.

I thought his "decision" was ironic. The whole time I was like - the kid is doing an Andy Kaufman bit where the joke is one everyone, including the guys who decided to interview him on TV.

i thought it was hilarious- they guy told him to pick one about three or four times, and he just kept on rolling- then he chooses clemson after he told the announcer it would be usuc- classic

he'll probably end up at arizona state or somewhere, though, just to keep people guessing

point for the Andy Kaufman reference.***

Sounds like a totally different young man.


Jan 10, 2011, 6:52 PM [ in reply to this kid has gotten a lot of negative "press" on this board ]

I guess it is just the Clemson influence.

He got some good press in the state paper, but I know what

Sounds like these kids don't read TN too much, huh?

remember it ranking as the #1 campus where students were the happiest.

I liked that quote as well - kudos to all in Clemson***

What I like best...

His decision speech cracked me up. That personality will take him a long way, regardless of football. But on the football side, I hope he turns into another Kirkland. Hulk. Smash!

Please don't play games with us and switch. No doubt a need for CU. It would be nice to see them land the best LB class in a long time if he get get Stephone Anthony and Tony Steward to come with him. We could get back to LB U. The current guys are good but I do not think they have the raw talent and speed of these 3.
