in Clemson, South Carolina is in full swing! BOOM! Danny Ford just leaned left on his Mahindra, spit, smiled and adjusted his well worn orange hat. What they say now?!!

Those were the days of "Power Football and the imposing of "Will" on opponents. I can't wait.

Days of Tracy Johnson and Chris Lancaster and Wesley McFadden and....
It was if they were almost saying " Nice tackle, let's see if you can do it again "

His coach says if he " only gives 85% he will be a phenomenal player " . Well , at Clemson the standard is 110% , so what will this additional 25% give us ? SuperMan ?

I think this is what we expected from Dye, but I believe some injury things got in the way, and Gallman elevated his game in the meantime. I like what I see out of Richardson. Big bruising back with good speed. Kind of reminds me of the ugay RB, Gurley. That is a compliment, IMO.

I completely agree with everything you have stated. I think Gurley when healthy is the best back we have seen in years.

It would be amazing if we finally have our first Gurley type RB in a very long time, but one with less of the injury bug that keep players on the side lines!!!

I think that we always put that extra pressure on big time players bc we have big time expectations of them. It's human nature, Mr. right for the position!!!

Have to agree, odd paragraph with no follow up.
Faulk and Lynch are mentioned, but that is two people.

I can't wait to see this kid in the backfield with Tavien Feaster. Feaster is already on campus and should play this year. Then add this kid next year that ALSO runs a 4.4 forty and is 220 now as a rising SR in HS. After a year at Clemson he will easy by 230. That’s a big and fast backfield. We just keep reloading. We were already doing great in recruiting (that's Dabo's specialty along with Jeff Scott) but going to the National Championship game really helped. These kids that were on the bubble decided to go to Clemson, and kids that were far away that we hadn't recruited started sending in their tape. The state of SC will be OWNED by Clemson for the next decade while Muscoot tries to lure people into his dumpster fire in Columbia

that one assuredly looks different on tape
Mar 18, 2016, 3:34 PM

I know he's listed as pretty much a consensus 4-star and like, the #5 RB in the country or so, and that ain't bad...but if you watch the tape he does look like he's in the same league as a Travis Henry or Leonard Fournette or a Nick Chubb or a Dalvin Cook. Again, if there's 4 RB's in the country better than him, it's one heckuva year for running backs.
Guy looks elite...as in, one of those very rare RB's who could legitimately aspire to the first round even in an NFL draft that doesn't pick many RB's in the first round anymore.
Surely does look like he's a heckuva pickup, whatever. Excited about this one.
