'17' TN ATH Tee Higgins (Clemson commit)

[Mullins2010]

Of course. If I'm pitching against Ut, I'm roasting our use of Josh Malone more than North. Both in state 5* pure wide receivers.

Hopefully Malone does well this year

 

[VolinArizona]

He had more Intel on the video, commitment, commit date, and where he was going. That is more than everyone else in here combined. That's a fact, go check his stats lol.

This. Turtle was closer to being right than anybody else

 

[Bigun]

Disagree on this part. We are winning. This is an indictment against the staff.

We need to win against more than UGA and Northwestern. The perception that we got of losing the OU and UF games hurt bad especially the UF debacle.

We were 9-4 last year which is about not that impressive to recruits when comparing what Clemson has done over the past few years.

 

[BigOrange15]

I don't, but I also don't assume.

I still have a feeling this one is far from done. I said yesterday, today CU is just the leader, get him to games, on campus, and win. Very possible he flips.

He's committed twice now so I doubt it will happen again. Also, how are we going to get him back to campus when it's a known fact that once you commit to Clemson, Dabo holds you hostage there so you can't take visits.

 

[KPT_VFL]

GFW if you are lurking what happened?

 

[DL916]

What did Butch tweet?

 

[VOLtilldeath]

Him committing to Clemson sucked bad

 

[CrunchingTheVolz]

Does ZA lose his job if this kids does indeed sign with Clemson?

I don't think ZA is a good coach. Never have. That said, he doesn't call the plays. He coaches WRs like Butch wants them coached. Not sure ZA can be blamed for WR production. If they are not throwing the ball, the WRs are just blocking.

What did Butch tweet?

A Happy Fourth of July tweet with 5 oranges literally moments before Tee announced his commitment to Clemson.

He can be blamed for not allowing guys to be loose and play loose and making them into robots

 

[CoaxialOrange]

This offense will always be hard for receivers to put up big numbers see WVU under Rich Rod

 

[Smokey'sHandler]

It's a long ways til NSD. Even if we had gotten the commitment from him it still wouldn't be over. Unless Butch & Co. just give up on him which they may but I don't think they will the big orange will still be filling his ear. This is recruiting where 8 months is a lifetime

Which is fine as long as we win

 

[Volzfan38024]

3 things that's killing our recruiting this year.

1. The 4 late loses last year.
2. No true qb coach.
3. Azzani

 

[PA Vol]

Aside from Holloman (lets assume we lead for him and it's not just wishful thinking), what other receivers do we have legitimate chances at?

 

[SmokinBob]

Honest question, how do you know this? I hope you aren't using the info from this thread to form that opinion.

I don't know anything - I just said IF - don't know if we'll ever know.




Edit: I got the same Happy 4th of July tweet from CBJ mentioned above

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Yep, they do it just enough and feature a couple of great WRs.

and


They Win.

Winning is the key. It's why Clemson is doing so well now.

Enough? They've averaged 3,045 passing yards over the last 5 years and have SEC passing ranks of 4, 2, 5, 6, and 3. The most important part is that they've lately has a consistent deep threat with Coop and Ridley. Hard to load the box when they can go for 6 on any play.

 

[volatil]

I wouldn't allow my child to decommit from a school and commit to another unless he's absolutely certain that is where he's going.

 

[CrunchingTheVolz]

Is it ZA or is it Butch's way? Wouldn't Butch address it if it wasn't being done how he wanted it done?

 

[chavisut]

Which is fine as long as we win

We had 3 of our 4 worst passing days against UF, Bama, and OU.


Need to be able to throw the ball.

 

[volatil]

This has negative recruiting written all over it.

 

[St. JohnVolCactus]

This has negative recruiting written all over it.

In other words, Clemson bested our recruiting efforts.

 

[unioncityvol]

Two WRs plucked from the bosom of East TN, one a 5 star and one a '98 legacy. Very disappointing Butch. Ouch.

 

[VolinArizona]

This has negative recruiting written all over it.

100% but so what?

 

[ACvol3]

This has negative recruiting written all over it.

U know it.. But all's fair in love and recruiting
