Offers: Visits w/ player comments: Auburn - Clemson 1/24 - "I had a real good time. I felt like I fit in with the players." Did you commit to the Tigers? "Actually Coach Bowden is supposed to be visiting my school tomorrow, and I have plans to committing to Clemson." What were the factors that made you want to commit to Clemson? "Coach Bowden is a real good coach. He is very intellectual and talks to me. It's a business but he didn’t carry on like it was a business. The players made me feel like I fit right in. I felt real good about my decision." What position is Clemson recruiting you for? "Cornerback." What are your strengths as a corner? "I’ve been told that I have good hips and feet. My speed is the main thing. I’m pretty fundamentally sound." How is the adjustment from free safety to corner going to? "At corner you’re more like a run stopper and more of a cover guy. Corner is more man on man and you have to be determined to not let that receiver beat you. I don't think it will be that hard of a transition. My freshman year I played corner so I don’t think it will be that big of a problem." Who was your player host this weekend? "Jaamal Fudge." Who is recruiting you for the Tigers? "Coach Hines is the main one that is recruiting me. Coach Lovett has been by to visit and Coach Smith." Any more visits? "No it's a done deal." * Listen to "Plyler on Sports" weekdays 4-7PM on 1070AM in Upstate SC. *
