Its florida/bama for him...we aint gettin him....we cant seem to do well this year with dl and ol prospects...wonder if the large amount of freshmen and sophmores on both lines are hurting us....because right now we are getting destroyed

need a lot of numbers as you mentioned.
very targeted with ol/dl offers this year so far so they stick out more so than in other years perhaps?

The prolem is were falling behind and missing with the top targets...I just think most school are hammering that the majority 90% of our ol/dl are freshmen/ sophmores

year. some say we never had a snowball's chance in hades of getting hill and he's out-of-state bound.
idk, dabo said we're targeting the best of the best, unfortunately that means ou, osu, nd, uga, lsu, ut, ut, bama, aub, uf, miami, fsu... are more than likely targeting them too.

take this for what its worth but I respect Bartow...he does a really good job....Yeah youre right we are right in it with the big dogs (something the coots cant do)...but for us to get over the hump...we have to win more and more battles every year
Those are the Top 5 recruits in terms of being the highest ranked (by Rivals.com) defensive prospects on the offer board. It's early on for all of them considering the Spring Evaluation Period just kicked off for Clemson.
As of Tuesday morning, Clemson hopes to land (if possible)... DT - 1 DE - 3 LB - 1 more to go with the 5 they have DB - 2-3 more to go with the 1 they have
As of late April for the aforementioned prospects...
1. Montravius Adams - Clemson used to lead big. Now he's opened things up considerably. Clemson, TN, Auburn, USC, Georgia are the main hitters. Doesn't plan to make a decision until NSD some 9 months from now.
2. Michael Hill - Instate battle between Clemson and South Carolina. Distance is a factor. He'll visit Ohio State, Alabama, Florida and Michigan this summer before announcing right before the start of senior season. That's the current plan there.
3. Nkemdiche - 5 teams are his 'favorites' - LSU, Clemson, Alabama, Ole Miss, Georgia. Each situation has been well-documented and broken down. His timetable keeps moving back and back. This won't be done until the ink dries on NSD. Especially in this situation.
4. Rochell - Notre Dame is the current leader. Clemson used to lead. ND leads over Clemson, FSU and Florida. That's his Top 4. May decide, hand out a verbal commitment, as early as this summer.
5. Fuller - VT leads big with Clemson running No. 2 currently. Plans to announce at the US Army AA game in early January.

we led big for adams because if i'm not mistaken because

we offered first? that's really important to some kids, hopefully we stay in there and pull him, but i can't imagine what it's like to be a kid like this every day of the week.
anyway, i think bartow and some others have a good day to day, week to week feel for some of these kids on which direction they may be leaning, my difficulty with these sites is in their evaluations.
hopefully things start turning cu's way, i really like the kid out of maryland, he was a pleasant surprise and should be a big plus with some of the others.
