OU recruits players to play qb then recruits transfer students that play qb (Mayfield, Murray, and Hurts) to step in in front of them. Then when a student has been through their system, they don’t want them to become a graduate transfer with immediately eligiblity to play against them. They must care more about winning than the young man they recruited and believe since he was not good enough to play for them they should punish him.
I would think that recruits of good character would feel better coming to Clemson and having a chance to develop knowing that playing time is earned and the coaching staff will treat them respectfully. I seriously doubt that even if Dabo could have block KB from going to another ACC school that he would have. Dabo loves his players and wants all of them to be the best they can be.
