Respect for the DeStefano commit, . . .

Liked what he said about knowing where his heart was and willingness to commit early to help Clemson in the recruiting of other players on the board; he realized he had the ability to help, was willing to do it, not interested in creating a bunch of hype and drama for selfish, yet unproductive, reasons; that approach commands the respect it earns regardless of the color of the uniform - g&b

Great post but it is not always Clemson who gets those. Some on here need to understand that. I am a Clemson fan but all of my family went to USC. Even had one teach there. I do not understand the animosity on this board quite often, sure we want to beat USC each and every year but they are not Iraq. Quite a few well behaved people attend there.

Don't you mean PAKISTAN? We've already 'shock and awed' Iraq. Need to watch Pakistan ISI before they help orchestrate another 9/11. Weapons of mass destruction? Democracy? Sadam? OIL...OIL...OIL...and a few $$Trillion$$.

"It was a good move on his part to commit early. I watched him all last year. He is prone to get hurt and would never have stood up to SEC defenses."

If the gamecocks cant land them, its because he wasnt good enough for the SEC. If they do land him, its because "they didnt want to play in the weak ACC."
I dont understand why grown adults cant let kids go where they want to go to school and not give them grief just because its their rival. I wish Clowney luck in his career and hope he can stay out of trouble to have a great career after school is overwith.

Thanks for the classy post...thought this was interesting though from Gamecock central posts:
"Only the Big Boys are up to a challenge in the SEC!!! The softies head to the ACC. See Bowers and Spiller!"
Why was Lattimore was chasing butterflies while everyone else was playing football in the Peach Bowl? Knocked the F&*K out by the ACC.

that most players, amateur or professional and regardless of uniform, feel like he does. Unfortunately, there are some that are all about themselves and they are the ones that get all the publicity.
