Why did James Davis younger brother choose SC over Clemson


Nov 2, 2013, 1:04 PM

Mike Davis is the better of any running backs at Clemson?

We weren't ever really in the discussion.

He didn't want to "follow in his brothers shadow"

Reading and writing.***

We were recruiting other RBs higher rated than him


Nov 2, 2013, 1:06 PM

We failed to get those RBs, and he decided to give Clemson the cold shoulder for recruiting him late. Not sure if he partly choose USuC out of spite or not. They probably promised him immediate playing time...

With Lattimore there? Immediate playing time?


Nov 2, 2013, 1:16 PM

I doubt it.

You're right, I keep forgetting Davis is a sophomore...***

I think Clemson thought they were going to get Keith Marshall since Gurley was committed to UGA, and didn't recruit Mike enough early on.

Mike Bellamy really. We would have treated the situation that was a lot different had we known***

for the volume it gets here every few days

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-74tiger.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Seems like we may have either


Nov 2, 2013, 1:09 PM

Pulled his offer or never offered him. Something we did hacked JD off in a big way. I think Mike wanted to do his own thing and go somewhere that he wouldn't be "James's brother"

wasnt offered by us till late. We thought we could get Marshall and Gurley

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

null


We offered very early on. He committed to UF so we backed


Nov 2, 2013, 1:10 PM

off and thought we were going to get Keith Marshall or Todd Gurley (still signed Brooks) and by the time he decommitted from FL wasn't really interested in Clemson anymore.

Who was the guy that transferred after Bellamy signed?***

Clemson was recruiting the top RBs in that class. (Gurley & Marshall)

They both chose UGA and Bellamy transferred.

A lot of things didn't work out in Clemson's favor for all of those RBs.

Lucky for the RBs that are getting the opportunity at Clemson IMO.

I hope they continue to make the best of it.
