Should have been let go when Deshaun said yesterday that he never was there. People need to back away from the ledge a bit. Although I do understand because the whole RN thing left a bitter after taste for all of us, Deshaun seems different.

RN's commitment was phony from the start….

RN was constantly contradicting himself from the time he committed. DeSean Watson has been completely consistent in his statements about being committed to Clemson.

I have no proof one way or the other, but would not be at all surprised to smell Michael Carvell at the origin of this rumor.

Outside influences that know what happens when the rumors

start to fly on theses boards are afoot. And it appears to be working as I have seen multiple posts on Tnet and TigerIllustrated that call our prized recruit a liar and are now questioning his character. If you don't think that our rivals aren't going to be linking to these comments and putting them in front of Watson you are naive. This kid loves Clemson and more importantly his momma loves Clemson.Lets not give them any reason to think otherwise.

I agree 100%. The only way we as fans can effect recruiting

is negatively. Those of you who cant come to grips with a high school kid not loving your school as much as you do need to quit following recruiting. Your comments are not needed. Recruiting is a game lets let those that know how its played play it and the rest of us sit back and watch.

I wouldn't be surprised if some reporter of A?? or E??? was back on the job. They surely haven't gone away and won't until Watson signed on the dotted line or enrolled in Clemson in January. Hate it but this is only the beginning. Especially if he continue with another great record breaking or dynamic senior season.

I think that Coach Morris is one of the best coaches ever to grace the campus at Clemson University, but that was a mistake. You've got to show the kid some trust and respect, or you worst fears will come true.

I think our Coaches have to follow up on him when they hear rumors, because if they are any truth in it then we need to be recruiting other QB's in this class. We can not afford to not take one this year. I am a little concerned that if Watson beats out Kelly that Kelly will transfer and we are going to be very thin on the depth charts next year. We have to get a QB this year even if it is not Watson so we will have depth going forward.

Garbage like this will eventually have him reconsider his commitment. Hang in there DW! Don't listen to the media!

I respectfully disagree with the poster who said Chad Morris was doing the wrong thing by investigating the rumors with his HS coach. We have to be vigilant on this situation as we have the opportunity to land the best dual threat qb in the country and have him on campus before spring next year. No , making sure about this was EXACTLY what the Chad needed to do. Go TIGERS

I think it is you, sir, who is being naive in believing that other coaches and Deshaun read the crap on tigernet, or any other boards. This kid isn't coming to Clemson for all of us, so even if it did decommitt don't take it to heart because its his future and he should have every right to decide where he wants to be for 3 or 4 years. Even if he has committed and then decides to decommitt, I dont understand why ppl on here get so bent out of shape. I understand that it is going back on his word, but for God's sake people he's a 17 year old kid. Just because you grown men rant and rave about how much better Clemson is than everybody else doesn't mean that every kid in the nation sees it that way. I hope he comes here, if not then oh well. Clemson wouldn't shut down, football would still continue, and plus it would give all you old ######## something to gripe and complain about.

LOL... you might want to reconsider the phrase

"old b@stards" unless you are referring to those older than, say, 21. Most of the O.B.'s like myself have been counselling patience and restraint, regarding our recruits, and that advice comes from years and years of experience with our programs, as well as faith in the capabilities of our staff. Nevertheless, I really don't take offense, since I am an "old b@stard!"

And if I was Deshaun, I wouldn't want this story on the Internet anyway
May 27, 2013, 12:26 PM

The quote from his coaches about never meeting Deshaun's dad or him ever being involved probably isn't something Deshaun wants as a story on a message board. Kinda stupid in my opinion tigernet. Seems like you're trying to reassure all the Clemson fans of a commitment, just to get everyone to calm down when it doesn't even matter if they are calm ab the situation or not. Grown ppl making big deals about recruiting is a pet peeve of mine because they act like a 17 year old kid controls the destiny of Clemson and controls or affects their life. Simply pitiful

Agreed, think this story is simply wrong.
It's not pleasant for Watson, sort of pushes him away if anything.
All the fans really want to know is a 'did he go or not?'.
This went too far..
Going out of the way to push an 'inside scoop', but by doing so this article does more harm than good. Tell us he didn't go to Auburn and the fans move on. It's that simple.

It was ALL of the truth, and that's what I have a problem with. It's not as if Watson doesn't know about what actually happened, but to make it public was wrong in my opinion and not in Clemsons best interest.
Other schools can use this against our relationship with Watson or future players imo.
Foolish to go this far into exactly what happened.
Watson has been posting things since this was published that likely have to do with either the whole 'he went to Auburn' thing in general, or the entire background going public. Either way, not good.
I see Watson staying either way, but if it's not good for Clemson, why post it if you're someone like Tigernet? Just doesn't make sense to me.

Things like this grow a nasty set of negative teeth when a very large number of your rivals are allowed on your board acting as fans of the schools. And T-net is one of the worst of allowing things like this to grab hold!!!!
