I would love to see him as a OL for us

If Dabo and Tony see him having a NFL shot as a Offensive lineman, I’d love to see him develop and help us on the OL!
I hate it he had the injury but I hope he understands Dabo doesn’t miss on offers like that!!
Dabo is an awesome coach not worried about stars but about real football players!

Of course he has to rehab and then add weight and strength, but I'm glad that we stuck with this guy. That's Clemson. Now, they can surgically rebuild a knee in terms of the ligaments, which are the major factor. If he puts in the work, he'll be fine.

"Headscratcher" is the best description....
Jun 14, 2018, 1:50 PM

3*, outside of top 1500, 250lb and too slow to play TE/DE, bad knee injury, never played a down on the OL....

2*, but agreed, I've seen him play in person and wasn't dominant against low end talent. Not sure how I feel about this but the coaches must like his drive and I hope he can prove us wrong.

I trust our coaches to make the right decisions for the program, but this is one of the strangest offers I've ever seen.

Not at the D1 level...
Jun 14, 2018, 4:37 PM

If he runs at 5.0 40 at 250lbs (for comparison, Dexter runs about the same at 340lbs), then he will be even slower at 300lbs playing OL. That is just not physically talented enough to contribute substantially for a national championship contender.
If this kid is actually good enough, then I hope he proves me wrong. In a class when we have absolutely got to land some stud OLmen to increase talent in that group and keep up with other top programs, this is just a strange offer.

Yeah, but Dexter black. That's not a fair comparison. On a more serious note though, yeah I completely agree it seems like an odd offer. That said, maybe he is very agile, with long arms, and will be a good 6ft 5 300lb OT, that runs a 5.2 with great footwork. Let's hope.

50-60 more pounds and runs .2 seconds slower? I would be amazed, also the reasoning you gave to their speed was pretty stupid.

I was joking around. Lighten up. That said, not really that stupid. As far as putting on 50 to 60lbs and only slowing .2 in the 40. That's not far fetched at all. He is probably not running the fastest 40 he is capable of. Moreover, he may be in way better shape and more physically mature in a couple years. There is a often a big difference between a 17 year old and a 20 to 21 year old. There is no telling.

Have known this kid since grade school. A great kid, great ball player, and has all of the qualities of a Clemson Man! Trust Dabo and company, I think they know what they are doing!
