standing on a ledge about our recruiting class having "only" like 12 4-5 stars:

Some former Clemson players who were rated two or three stars over the years:
Charlie Whitehurst (3)
Gaines Adams (3)
Aaron Kelly (2)
Phillip Merling (2, then 3)
Barry Richardson (2)
Michael Hamlin (3)
Kavell Conner (2)
Tyler Grisham (2)
Michael Palmer (2)
Cody Sensabaugh (2)
Andre Branch (2)
Bashaud Breeland (3)
Tyler Shatley (3)
Vic Beasley (3)
Grady Jarrett (3)
BJ Goodson (3)
Adam Humphries (2)
Cordrea Tankersley (3)
DJ Reader (3)
Jay Guillermo (3)
Jordan Leggett (3)
Wayne Gallman (3)
TJ Green (2)
Ryan Carter (2)
Kendall Joseph (3)
Hunter Renfrow (2)
K'von Wallace (3)
Travis Etienne (3)

Almost all of those guys are/were/will be NFL players.

Some former Clemson players who were rated four and five stars over the years:
Roscoe Crosby (5)
Rendrick Taylor (4)
Willy Korn (4)
Kortnei Brown (4)
Markish Jones (4)
Marquan Jones (4)
Kenneth Page (4)

Desmond Brown (4)
Justin Parker (4)

Lateek Townsend (4)
Germone Hopper (4)
Ronald Geohaghan (4)
Chad Kelly (4)
Zac Brooks (4)
Tyshon Dye (4)

Korie Rogers (4)
Jae'lon Oglesby (4)

Point being, you never know how a kid's career is going to turn out until they get on campus. We've had as many diamond-in-the-rough success stories as blue chippers who pan out over the years. I think we can trust the coaching staff who've won 2 of the last 3 National Championships to evaluate. I'm excited about the guys we signed!

GO TIGERS!!

I missed those guys from your list?

I don’t understand what’s so hard to grasp that stars matter and there is a higher percentage of 5 stars that make it than 2 stars. Not saying Dabo isn’t a great evaluator but stars do matter. This class was one a down year in talent in our area and 2 a class that met the needs of projected depth. However, I’m sure everyone here touring the 3 stars will be the same ones in 2020 praising all the 4 and 5 stars we get.
