Most of the recruits have now seen Clemson play in

the cfp the entire time that they've been in highschool (last 4 years in a row). They aren't used to seeing championship games without our Tigers playing for it.

This season ruined the "Deshaun is gone" narrative that teams could use.
I hope that recruits feel this way too and start rolling in like never seen before!

Haha I’m sure they will start that crap up again after Trevor leaves but hopefully we will have another amazing QB in DJ waiting by then. ????

TigersO Very important point you make. Other teams had been engaging in the: "they got the best QB that program will ever have" now their run is over negative recruiting tactic with kids. I know they use the low # of NFL starters we produce from the OL that way for fact. That whole narrative is done and put to bed!

Great poast. And just to build on it, most of these kids were in elementary school the last time Clemson had something less than a 10-win season.

2020 recruiting class will probably be Dabo's
Jan 16, 2019, 10:20 AM

First class with substantially more 4 Stars than 3 Stars.... now don't get me wrong, Dabo is a master of recruiting and there will be plenty of 3 stars on our menu. Dabo can find those 5 Star heart/2-3 Star players. But the 2020 recruiting class is off to a good start, with five 4 Star and zero 3 Star .. And Last year with two 5 Star , 14 4 Star , 12 3 star . It shows how diverse Dabo is in building his culture ...now with all this hardware, Dabo will probably actually nic-pic at some 5 star players, lol. What a time to be a Tiger...

I looked it up. Highest class according to 247 sports was 2018 which ranked #7. We are at #6 right now for 2019 and could end up at #4 or #5. In 2020 we could have a top 3 class.

Does anybody have an estimate on the size of the 2020 class? The 2018 class was only ranked that poorly because of quantities.

2018 was the first class with that distinction.
According to Rivals there were only 5 3 star players and one of them was a kicker (top rated but never get more than 3 stars).
The rest of that small class was 4 and 5 star players.

talent next. If you have a bad social media history, you ain't getting an offer, no matter how many stars you got. I like that about him. Believe in your standards (which is BEST) and recruit to those standards. Seems to be working.

I think most kids really start getting into football at around 11-13 years old. So that WV game and FSU game are not really in their memory. Or the 5 game streak to the coots

I agree for the most part. I think that they my be into it sooner, but if they are like I was, they have tunnel vision for whoever is their team. As long as that team was not Alabama back then, I think that we are in pretty good shape.
