Well that blows, thought he was going to have a breakout year. Good Luck to him! Opens the door for big Albert and Yeargin to step up and be the man on that opposite side.

It doesn't matter what part of NY, or for that matter, he could be from Hutchison KS. He broke the rules somehow and his behavior was bad enough that Dabo removed him from the football team. Plain and.simple. You follow the rules and your behavior is acceptable, you play. If not, Delta is ready when you are. Dabo requires you as a player to follow all parts of the Team rules on behavior as well as grades. If you cannot follow the guidelines set forth as.a student athelete, your outta here. Plain and.simple. Good luck EBO, your post shows class and responsibility for your actions.

TWO PEOPLE COME TO MIND 1.) ALBERT HUGGINS 2.) AUSTIN BRYANT BOTH ARE BEAST AND EVEN LOOK LIKE VIC BEASLEY IN HIS STYLE OF PLAY.

May 19, 2015, 12:22 PM

They won't contribute much this year. Ebo had experience. That's why it sux. Those guys will be good no doubt but incoming freshman aren't who you rely on as solid contributors. Freshmen lineman have to grow into those positions... U don't push people around like high school in ur first yr. ebo was a big loss bc all I've heard last year and so far this yr is that he's got a ton of potential and ability to be a star.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Umm those dudes are brand new...


May 22, 2015, 5:13 AM

He had a whole 16 snaps of experience.. Don't label him a veteran lol... He simply wasn't. Sammy Watkins started his very first game in Death Valley against Auburn. Do you remember? Also, Deshaun Watson started a few games last year as well. Just because they are freshmen don't mean that they won't contribute or even start. Christian Wilkins, Austin Byrant, and Albert Huggins are game ready. Every major university was recruiting them pretty hard. We lucked up and scored them. They are freshmen with the size and speed of Grady Jarret and Vic Beasley. Albert Huggins has the exact same style of pass rush as Vic Beasley. Don't believe me, then watch his film. Christian Wilkins knocks people off of the ball on the snap and Austin Bryant is a beast. We also have many other capable play makers that can get to the QB on the roster. I'm not worried about DE right now, I'm more concerned with DT at the moment, which could be the reason why so many DE have moved to the inside.

May 19, 2015, 12:31 PM [ in reply to Re: FB Update: Clemson DE no longer with football team ]

there has been no salient reason given to putting hopes in this guy. His name was mentioned once in a while, but it was always second or third mention on every list. I never saw him presented as the next big pass rusher by any coach or legit commentary. These things happen once in a while and I'd be worried about our coach if they did not happen. Bid him well and let's move on - we've got plenty of talent ready to go.

Re: If you have been following things for a while


May 19, 2015, 1:19 PM [ in reply to If you have been following things for a while ]

I disagree. He has been stuck behind some pretty great players the last couple of years. He was seemingly going to be our 3rd best end coming out of spring and someone versatile enough to relieve both Lawson and Dodd. In a scheme like Venables' that loves rotation he was probably going to be a significant contributor. I know we have some stud freshman already on campus and coming in but this loss still hurts. He obviously screwed up and I support Dabo 100% in his decision but I don't think this is an insignificant departure.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You could have said the same thing about Beasley


May 19, 2015, 5:39 PM [ in reply to If you have been following things for a while ]

apparently:

Clemson police chief Jimmy Dixon told FOX Carolina that Ogundeko was arrested and charged with one count of financial transaction fraud.

Dixon said Ogundeko was using his own credit card but somehow worked with another individual to change the magnetic strip on the back to a different number.

Breaks my heart for him because he's so young


May 21, 2015, 2:35 AM

i pray Ebo take responsibility like a grown man. I know I did things at his age and got away with driving drunk, starting fights, smoking weed and trying to do every girl I could as a lifeguard on the beach in Myrtle Beach my summers were filled with partying and thinking I was the man that brought all the parties to life. Pride and thinking I could take God off the shelf and use him every time something went wrong. I can't imagine having a free ride and a chance to play more football for the ACC champions and a chance to play in the playoff. I pray he picks himself up and fights to play for another team and get it right.

Love Ya Ebo, take it like a man and prove everybody wrong, praying you make it right Brother!!

Go Tigers, We to Deep, spot the ball, next man up!! I pray we get a 5 star replacement because Dabo handled it right!!

So really I want to say, get your head out of your a$$ kid, you had a once in a lifetime chance and your behavior shows you didn't respect the opportunity. We all make mistakes.

Unfortunate that something happened serious enough to merit this. It is a lost investment on both sides. It must have been serious and or not the first negative incident. Barring more serious offenses I imagine they all are all allowed one error and the chance to recover from it. Hopefully he will not find his way and blossom with one of the usual suspects like Louisville, Auburn, Ole Miss or anyone the Tigers play. That would be irritating. Good luck young man and Go Tigers!

He approached my sister inlaw at a local grocery store and asked her for her number but not really in such a way that made her flattered or comfortable. She said " I'm 40 and married with children" his reply was he didn't care about her age or husband. He let her know what he thought of himself and how he was the man. Childish but he took it a step further to being brash and rude and quite frankly too aggressive. He should have just kept his mouth shut and simply said "sorry" or paid her a compliment not keep running his mouth. Since that happened kinda been thinking he would screw up
