Watson: "There is nothing like Clemson for me"
2014 five star quarterback prospect and Clemson commit Deshaun Watson was back in Clemson for the spring game. What did he have to say about taking other trips this summer? What did Watson's mother have to say about Clemson? And what did Watson say about his commitment if Chad Morris left Clemson? Full Story » |

Just wondering...

If what he says is true and he asks Morris for permission before making a recruiting visit, why would Morris agree to let him go? To me, that seems risky.

Trust and respect

It shows he trust Watson and also respects him. If he tried to stop him from going to other schools that would suggest that either he didn't think Watson would make a good decision and stick with Clemson or that he didn't feel Clemson was the best school for Watson and was threatened by other schools.
We don't own this kid and its certainly within his rights to look at other schools. He sounds about as solid as it gets towards Clemson. He loves Clemson and more importantly MOM loves Clemson.

Once you've been to Clemson, I don't think anyone else has anything to offer. That is, if you are going to a school to grow on the field and in life as a person. That's why Coach Morris doesn't stop the visits. There are no schools that offer the family environment that Clemson offers. IMHO

There is a difference here. Watson would have a

scholarship waiting on him regardless if we had signed 15 other QB's. Some other recruits are interchangeable and the first to commit gets the spot. We then have to tell other kids we are no longer recruiting them even though they are good prospects and many are 4 stars. So they don't necessarily have a space saved for them like Watson.

. . .how would you feel if someone told you that you couldn't take a trip to Oregon because I'm scared you're going to commit? You would probably go anyway and be more inclined to commit. Fact is, if they don't want to be at Clemson 100% then their not doing themselves or anyone else any favors so you might has well let them "see the world" and then they know they may the right decision.

If someone truly loves you, you can let them go and they will come back.

Love means, if we don't trust each other. Our love was born on a death bed.
