Flips from Tennessee.

Congrats to them...but all it means is they have to babysit him for 13.5 more months.

Not a big concern. When we accept commitments we make it clear that we don't play games. Marlin Lane found that out and ended up at Tennessee, Issac McDonald was dropped and ended up at West Virginia, and Elijah Daniel ended up at Auburn.

If he does flip we'll be fine with the #7 dual threat QB in the 2016 class backing up the #14 & 22 dual threat QBs in the 2015 class and possibly the #1 dual threat QB in the 2014 class if Watson sticks around for his senior year.

Not to mention we are the leader for the #11 Pro style QB in the same class. He plays for Dabo's roommate at Alabama and already runs an offense modeled after ours.

Dabo has assembled a recruiting machine. It's pretty funny that Muschamp is already telling recruits that Clemson won't be on top for long and that the chickens will be the better program. Based on what, Spanky? 5 straight 10 win seasons? Beating top 10 teams regularly? Recruiting elite talent? This should be fun to watch.

SC should have landed a coach known for exciting offense. I can't see any great QB and WRs wanting to go play at SC with Muschamp there.

Any high school football player who believes that is probably too dumb to get into Clemson anyway.

Our recruiting is off the charts. Everybody loves Dabo and his staff. He is so inspirational.

He has a clinic and camp for women. My aunt Edna went with her friend Connie. They got to run down the hill and everything. They got back to their town and they are Clemson everything. They had pictures of them running down the hill with some other women and they called the lady from the local paper and got it in the newspaper. They said Dabo is the most inspirational person they have ever met. Everybody in South Carolina wants a chance to rub the rock and run down that hill and Dabo gave all those ladies the opportunity.

They have never been the same. Imagine what he does to inspire our players.

I ran down the hill as a freshman at Clemson with some friends. climbed up over a tall fence late at night. we actually slide down it head first b/c the grass was wet. Don't remember touching the rock. lol not sure if I even knew about the rock at that time.

Instead of editing the above post from leader to possess a commitment I'll just leave this here

Quote:When you know, you know, and Chase Brice knew Clemson was where his he needs to be.
The 4-star quarterback prospect out of Loganville (GA) Grayson became the fourth commitment of the 2017 recruiting cycle for the Tigers and the second quarterback in three days to commit when he called Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney late Wednesday with a verbal.

Brice joins offensive lineman Noah DeHond, defensive back Baylor Spector and quarterback Hunter Johnson as commits for the cycle. Johnson, a 5-star signal caller out of Indiana, committed to the Tigers Monday.

Brice, the No. 10 QB and No. 223 overall player in the ESPN Junior 300 told TigerNet he has known Clemson was his choice for a while and couldn’t wait any longer.

“I think it was just weighing on my heart heavy, and I've probably known for a while now,” Brice said. “I've really known since a little before the Notre Dame game when I visited. It was just the right place for me to be and the right people for me to be around and the offense just fit me well. I didn't want to wait any longer.”

Quote:Brice boasts 18 offers, including Miami (FL), Louisville, Michigan St. and Virginia Tech, but he says his recruiting is finished.

“I can say that I'm done unless something random shakes up in the future, which I hope doesn't happen,” he said. “I'm done right now, and I'm all in with Clemson.”

The Tigers have true freshmen Kelly Bryant and Tucker Israel already on the roster, 2016 commit Zerrick Cooper will be in next year and they’ve now added Johnson and Brice to the mix. Brice said he isn’t afraid of a little competition.

“No, I'm not. I've been around competition basically my whole life with the league we play in - 6A and about to go to 7A in Georgia,” he said. “Coming up through baseball competition and trying to win a spot. It all started with eighth grade D1 and D2, who's going to compete and who's going to win it out. I had an all-star team and competed there, so I've been around it for a while, since I was a freshman trying to compete for a job, so I'm used to it.”

I don't get why a 4 star would commit to Clemson if a 5 star just did and we have other top QBs. if you want to play, that is. I'll take it. lol

if watson stays all 4 years, a lot of talent will have been wasted at that position.
