Is the recruiting of Christian Wilkins a sign Albert Huggins

is heading to Georgia or somewhere other than Clemson? Are our coaches starting to get a bit nervous about Huggins?

Huggins is still ours to lose.

We'll just take Wilkins as well! We've got space right now and he's a good enough talent to try and sign. From what I understand Huggins is still ours right now and since he's going to be an early enrolle he'll need to make his mind up soon

You can't sign enough offensive and defensive tackles for me

but I do not get a good vibe about Albert Huggins. It seems he's been trying hard to find another option.

Clemson wants Huggins badly both of these players are top 100 players and both are takes.

Here's an update from another site

What is new with Albert Huggins. Nothin.
Same story but the timeline is getting crunched. UF turmoil makes that jump less and less likely, especially if Florida line coach Brad Lawing is looking for a new job. Huggins has this connection to Lawing, who would absolutely take shots at Clemson, but this is more about returning the favor and seeing a new place than legit interest.
Georgia is the real competition. Huggins has the childhood affinity to the Dawgs and Clemson has always been the place that everyone just assumed he would go, which isn't working in our favor. Clemson has proximity, mama, and long standing relationships with the coaching staff in its corner. Huggins is going to enroll early so he will need to make these visits. If his team goes deeper into the playoffs then the window for visits gets even smaller. I will be cheering for Orangeburg over Hartsville in the 3A playoffs this week.
DT Christian Wilkins is also in play and taking things slowly (which works out great for us as Huggins will be forced to decide with the early enrollment). Let me just slip in here, for those still reading, this nugget: Wilkins will take an official to Clemson (but I won't say any dates).

I don't think he's ours to lose at all. I think his heart is with Georgia though his head might be with us and I think if they didn't have such a deep d-line class and son many coming back he would go to UGA. The bottom line is, as much and and as many times as he's been to Clemson over the years and the amount of time our coaches have been on him he's still not committed to us for some reason.

I totally agree with you.

I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not getting a warm, fuzzy feeling about Huggins.

I'm in 100% agreement with you. I've never had a great feeling about him. I think that if he was ours, he would've committed by now. He's had plenty of time, and also you never hear him talking up Clemson

I'm not sure why he wouldn't be interested in coming here. We will still have plenty of talent defensively, and with his talent he would probably play first year. On the other side of the ball we will be elite before he graduates, we need to quit losing critical recruits.

5 I think. That's another reason why Huggins not committing yet is strange.

Definitely six- Barnes, Beastly, Crawford, Josh Watson, DeImtheman Williams, and finally, our knight in shinning armor- Grady Jarrett. Yes I have a man crush on him.

Huggins is a DE....Wilkins is a true 300 lb+ DT. We are really in good shape with both.

You'll see Wilkins visit for the georgia state game. Allows the staff to roll out the orange carpet.
