Odds on Adams?

Just wondering what the odds are that we land Adams. With Shaq Lawson,Ebenezer Ogundeko, Dane Rogers, and Scott Pagano if we could land Montravius Adams we are looking at a monster of a defensive line. So what do you guys think our chances are especially since he enjoyed his visit to Florida.

Yes, we'll know more after the visit, but I see this as a marriage made in heaven. Adams is close to his single mother who makes sacrafices for him on a daily basis and does so gladly. Dabo was also raised by a single mother and has taken great joy in being able to allow her to benefit from his success. Adams comes from a small town environment just like Clemson. Clemson offers tremendous academic support and a family atmosphere. Clemson has a history of sending d-linemen to the NFL and it has a history of sending them with degrees or significant progress toward that degree.
I was chatting with Brandon Thompson's uncle before a game his senior year. I wanted to talk about what a great player he was and the uncle wanted to talk about how he only had a couple classes left in order to graduate. That is Clemson and young Mr. Adams and his mother will surely see that.

From what I read................

Adams seems to be a very quiet, thoughtful young man who is very close to his Mom and who has handled his recruitment as well as you can. He does not seem like the type that would be happy on a large campus like UF or UGA, but rather a smaller university with a more personal, family environment. CU attracts a different type of kid than those schools. I think if things go like I would expect, we will be hard to beat. My only concern is they have the last shot???????????????

it would be a total guess based on no facts or anything of substance to try and guess where a guy would go, but I do agree that he seems to be a thoughful young man with a caring thoughtful mother.
that being said, I think with the family, small town, southern atmosphere that they'll see at Clemson, It would seem like the obviuos place to trust with the wellbeing of your son for 3-4 years
Me personally, i would rather leave my son in a small southern town that is passionate about football, than to leave him is a big city
what are the chances he plays at CLEMSON?
don't know but i hope he does

I hope he becomes a tiger as well. From what I can gather from reading about him seems like he is a great kid and a heck of a ball player.
