New Story: Georgia defensive end commit says "I just can't stop thinking about Clemson"

Georgia defensive end commit says "I just can't stop thinking about Clemson"

Athletes, parents, and media all complained about the cold and blustery conditions at Buford High School Sunday afternoon, but if there was one person who didn’t seem to mind the 30-degree temperatures and gusty winds, it was 2019 defensive end Nolan Smith, who says Clemson is never far away from his thoughts.

That would be a great flip if we could pull it off! Deep down he feels the pull towards Clemson. Wonder what the pull to Georgia is that keeps him committed there?

Money money money...

Nah, he really sounds like a nice honest young man and that wouldn't work for this fella. Not that I saying uga doesn't do that because I firmly believe that they do.

Me too! It sounds like his heart already is at Clemson. I don't see the attraction to uga when comparing it to the atmosphere he loves and says Clemson has. Leave the doubts behind, and follow where you're led. Tiger Town awaits.

They may get him, but if they do, it will be because a new house, car, job for parent, etc come with strings attached. That is the "ugay way".

I heard when Kirby passes out the cash to his players, he hands some out to some select regular students too. That way it’s a benefit that is received by both athletes and non-athletes and not the NCAA’s business. It’s the UNCheat way!

Mar 26, 2018, 9:54 AM

Yeah, I'd love to see this fella come to Clemson. Sounds like that's where his heart is at and some of his friends. He just sounds and looks like a Clemson man. I am a little confused on this section of the article:

“It's certain things about Georgia and just the defense that they run,” Smith told TigerNet Sunday afternoon. “I feel like I'm a 3-4 outside linebacker but I’m playing in the 4-3 system right now and I'm working, I'm working just fine. And they are still in it, but it's kind of hard because I really want to play in the 3-4 defenses, but I just can't...

Is he saying he likes what CBV runs or uga or what. or am I just reading this wrong. TIA.

Yea, that was confusing. We run a 4-3 and UGA runs a 3-4. Looks like that's what he liked about UGA is the 3-4 D.

BV mixes up his defenses so much though (drops back DEs into coverage and blitzes everyone at some point). I feel like he would be able to use Nolan's strengths to his advantage, no matter what the position is called.

I hope he has a AAA membership. He's likely to have car trouble on his next visit to Clemson

This seems to validate that he's not 100% committed to Georgia just yet. He uses "we" a lot but then points out that he's talking about athletes from the State of Georgia, not just Georgia commitments. I think he probably ends up a Dawg, but he's definitely making it interesting

With NCAA knowing your recruiting history with him


Mar 26, 2018, 1:26 PM [ in reply to Here is what the AJC had to say about my homeboy. ]

UGA will have a decision on backing off or not.

I guess UGA won't back off, knowing how "hard" UGA is working at recruiting.

IMG teammates seem to think he's the most likely to flip it's all "word through the grapevine" though and we won't know until the smoke settles.

XT & Mike Jones are our best recruiters of Nolan


Mar 26, 2018, 1:23 PM

I believe he might just flip to be with his brothers from last year. The fact they are FaceTiming him from Clemson is better recruiting than anything The dawgs can do besides $ and I don’t believe dirty money drives him.

Playing with his former teammates and going pro in three can best be done at Clemson. I’m going 100% on him to want to be with family at Clemson playing for the best head coach and defensive coach. Brent will know how to use him the best to get him to the NFL as a 1st round pick.

Unfortunately I trust these kids words as far as I can throw them. I think this fluff and manufactured drama to keep his appeal going. If you can’t stop thinking about Clemson then why are you committed to GA? And when asked why you are you say that you don’t know...it’s just GA...

We can all play devil's advocate, but there are reasons why he committed to UGA...yet remains indecisive. Most of all, commitment at Clemson means something a bit more than at other programs. I don't see him singing 'Georgia'...but he comes right out and says Clemson is on his mind... a lot. UGA fans place an inordinate amount of pressure on top recruits...especially within the state. At some point, that grows old. Kids are starting to figure that out.

I understand he is 17 years old...That definitely plays into the fact of why I don't trust their word. They are teenagers and being indecisive is completely understandable...But lets not pretend that these kids don't try to play people or fan bases...
