I wonder if the Duke coaches slap their hands on the floor

while they're talking to recruits.

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.

This kid is special and may be the best LB we ever had. He is driven, focused, very intelligent and has unlimited potential. He will be the steal of the class.

I'm so thankful he decided to come to Clemson!! All In!!

Welcome aboard Joseph!! You will be special for years to come.
We are blessed to have you!

The best LB we've ever had at Clemson?


Jun 17, 2013, 11:27 AM

Those would be some awfully big--I'm talking HUGE--shoes to fill.

The definition of awesome!


If you watch the


Jun 17, 2013, 1:30 PM

clips, this kid plays and hits like Justin Miller and he is a just a junior in the clips. I agree he could be special.

They are huge shoes to fill, but I hope he really is that good. I believe, from his highlight film, he is quite talented, very aggressive, and if he were considering Duke, and they were considering him, he must be pretty smart. He showed wisdom in looking the big picture over and choosing us over them if he really cares about football and his future as a player. Great choice!

As in Levon Kirkland who weighed 260 and ran like a running back. That's back when we had a credible S&C program. OK, hammer away.

This guy is a major catch. He already has the size,and will only get stronger. We need big, intimidating linebackers who can give opposing running backs something to think about. Frankly, I'm concerned about
line backers who weigh 210.

Duke has the the most funds to work with in the ACC. Check out their the money they inherited lately. They can fund a big football program.
I'm thankful Joseph wasn't apart of it.

Go Tigers!

This guy is a complete package: he's got size, he's got speed, he's got a hell of a motor, he's got hands, he's got vision, he definitely has tackling, he can run, he can block, he can run trick plays...

Why is he not a 5 star? Oh well, doesn't matter. Ratings are just hot air from somebody who isn't actively recruiting the kid anyways. Glad he's gonna bleed orange! Can you imagine this guy at Duke? He would have been their defensive captain for four years. Almost feel bad they missed out him. Kind of. But not really. >:)

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Not counting this dude until he signs the LOI


Jun 17, 2013, 12:06 PM

He could just as easily flip back to Duke. It's nice to be the school that a commit flips to though.

Considering the reasons he gave, I don't think so...***

His mother isn't out of the country and brainwashing him. I think he'll stay true; he has a lot going for him here.

Re: Front Page Story: Late night call flips Joseph from Duke to Clemson

This kid just look like he was born to be a LB, even before he comes out of his stance. His style of play definitely reminds you of the great, discipline, hard hitting LBs of Clemson's past. He has great upper body strength. Never allowing anyone to get to his body, knees, or legs. After some of those powerful blows to blockers and O-linemen, they wasn't about to lower their helmet to receive a crushing blow to the head. This kid could cause a concussion with his forearm blows. His offense production has helped him to read well and become a great closer even as a junior. Boulware and he will make a great future LB tandem along with some of the other 2014 LB class. You can expect loose balls to be flying all over the field. The future looks bright at the LB position.
