Clemson Camp Review: Leonard to Clemson?? Smith to Clemson??


Jun 25, 2013, 3:31 PM

QT at STS seems to think that Leonard will pick between us and FSU and that we are in the lead right now. Anyone else hearing this??

Also saying that DJ Smith will most likely be a Tiger.

your thoughts on recruiting, but there is no doubt in my mind QUACKINGtiger is agenda based/targeted.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I'd agree except he's yet to be wrong on the subject


Jun 25, 2013, 3:48 PM

To this point players that he's felt were Clemson leans committed at least for a time and he seems to know a lot about things that aren't public knowledge.

Trust me I'm well aware that STS has their own agendas about Clemson but they do have their articles that are good to read.

fair enough. we all have our opinions, i respect yours &

your 'truth', just don't agree with it.

i read the article since it was linked. i didn't see anything that couldn't have been obtained from clemsoninsider.

Trust me I have my issues with STS but do enjoy reading their game reviews and recruiting updates. Anything pertaining to our staff and their decisions I stay away from because that's where they go from being unbiased to sharing their opinions.

Jun 25, 2013, 4:41 PM

all with the needed $s to expand their program, staffs, facilities & offering.

the more hands on deck the merrier to help bring dabo's[& his lts'] plan to fruition.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Re: i'm glad clemson continues to support swinney, batson &


Jun 25, 2013, 5:41 PM

I think this is a major strength that Dabo has brought to the program. He was dead on that support staff is part of the new arms race in college football.

Dabo is good buddies with Batson, so we all know he isn't going to fire him. Lets not kid ourselves though--the hiring of Hogan was because Chad Morris wanted someone to specifically work with our Offensive lineman because the current S&C wasn't cutting it.

I absolutely give Dabo credit for beginning to reform S&C. Could things go faster by retiring Batson? Sure. But sometimes baby steps are most prudent.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

not at all; the staff increases were part of what dabo


Jun 25, 2013, 5:55 PM

asked for from the start, long before morris was even a blip. in fact, he was miffed when some that were initially promised weren't given immediately as committed to.

morris brought 100 plays a game to the table, hunh from huaw for the call to be changed at the los.

no doubt, duh, things needed to change as it was a completely different monster. that's just good business & batson is exactly the experienced strength professional to design what was needed.

more staff only helps implement it; that's good business too.

Nobody on STS has a clue about football...


Jun 25, 2013, 4:04 PM [ in reply to QT doesn't have an agenda and is a cool dude ]

they watch 3-5 minute youtube clips and think they are experts.

I don't feel this is true


Jun 25, 2013, 4:07 PM

When they write articles that have little to do with their opinions on something their very informative in terms of teh Xs and Os of football and those are the things I enjoy reading.

It is true, you don't have to accept that, but it's true….


Jun 25, 2013, 4:29 PM

none the less. Those guys are hacks, they are completely clueless. They have no sources around Clemson athletics, and they don't know the first thing about football.

Go back and read all of QT's stuff. He doesn't just throw crap out to see if it will stick. I can remember a bunch of times that Clemsoninsider has been wrong (well had to back-track on things. I like Robert's site too but you are off base if you say that QT just grabs from him.

QT is conservative on what he calls as definite and yes his name is Quackingtiger but if you read his rationale for the name--he puts himself between being a homer and a dabo-hater. A critical Clemson recruiting observer. I haven't seen him get anything wrong and I have been reading for a year now. Just my 2 cents.

They had good info last year about Lawson wanting to commit but then the former Georgia D-line coach, (i forget his name) buying them out, for example.

Re: Clemson Camp Review: Leonard to Clemson?? Smith to Clemson??


Jun 25, 2013, 3:53 PM

Both of those are true. But I would take the Leonard news with a grain of salt as his "dream school" is FSU, and he has not visited them yet but will soon before he makes his decision.

He has multiple quotes out there saying that the reason clemson took the lead is because he has seen the place unlike FSU.

DJ Smith was rumored to be a Clemson South Carolina battle, South Carolina is about to fill up at DB with Al Harris Jr.

Our only competition with DJ will now be UT.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

QT saying we currently lead for Leonard


Jun 25, 2013, 4:06 PM

Well I guess my headline is misleading. QT is saying we currently lead and barring something major from FSU then he will pick Clemson.

Dr. B is saying Smith to Clemson.

That is not QT and their recruiting coverage


Jun 25, 2013, 4:15 PM

got to treat the different writers differently I think. Dr. B has said some things that haven't turned out to be true.

I think he was pushing for the training table for a long time and changes to S&C that have happened with the hiring of Hogan and the new guy. If everything was so great that wouldn't have happened.

Also no one thought we would beat LSU really so hard to hold that against them.
