The latest on offensive lineman Jackson Carman
Jackson Carman was one of the crown jewels of the 2018 recruiting class and enrolled early at Clemson so he could take part in spring practice. While many might wonder what happened with Carman, offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell told the media last week that Carman is progressing. Full Story » |

All that was kind of a given after the Spring game. He needs time. I bet he ends up an absolute stud year 2. Maybe he even starts as an OG.

I don't think he's talking about that...I think he's referring to the fact that the title of this article makes it seem like something horrible has happened. It reminds me of the time Homer Simpson pranked Ned Flanders:

My heart is still racing and there is an acid taste in my mouth. I think the authors need to consider the titles before they post them.

I agree, and it seem to be one of their favorite games they play, but it's not so professional is it!!!

This was the exact issue with Belk...
Jul 25, 2018, 3:17 PM
|
|
He came-in believing all the hype he read about himself but at the end of the day, he was just a freshman, starting all over, trying to work his way up competing against a very high level of talent.
He clearly couldn't handle it, so he gave-up and decided to transfer to a school where the road to early and significant playing time was much easier.

There is no issue with Jackson. Where do you get that nonsense "he was believing all the hype about himself"? You obviously don't know what you're talking about. He's fine, and all is going to plan. There is no comparison b/n him and Belk. Not even close.

Exactly!!
Even implying that there is an issue is asinine....at best. Then, taking it a step further trying to paint him in the same light as Josh Belk is borderline retarded behavior. Either you'e a moron and know no better, or, you're trying to stir the pot and create drama.

Good news!

If Jackson Carmen can lose near 40lbs of fat and add 10-15lbs of muscle (netting him out near 315), at his size of 6'6" he's going to be a MONSTER!! He already has a nasty demeanor on the field (which is the one thing you really can't coach)!
So, the next step will be learning leverage, technique and the playbook, but that will come.
Jackson has a VERY high ceiling!

Carman will be an absolute stud before his playing days at Clemson are done. As far as future OL recruiting is concerned, we need Mitch Hyatt to have a productive season and be drafted in the first three rounds. I have a feeling we’re getting killed by our competitors for not producing NFL talent on the recruiting trail.

I would agree that we haven't been lighting it up with O'lineman over the past 10 years. I would give ourselves a B in recruiting, an A- in coaching. I would rank Strength Training somewhere around a B+ as well.
For us to start getting more Mitch Hyatt & Jackson Carmen types (5 stars), I think it will certainly help for Mitch to go in the top 2 rounds. Jackson Carmen will help as well, I believe. I also believe these new coaches (cough, Kirby) are promising these kids the moon and the old players starting spots were not secured and they could come in and be a 4 year starter. Things will have to slow down b/c nobody is going to want to be 3rd on the depth chart for 3-4 years before even getting a chance at meaningful snaps.
Something to keep in mind. Mitch Hyatt's spot has been locked up since he was a freshmen. Except for injury, nobody was going to take that spot for 3-4 years and I'm sure that has kept a good player or two away over the last 3 recruiting periods.

To the one point that thrills me beyond words: he can play in four games and not sacrifice eligibility. That's one heckuva JV season! And, if he needs to be promoted, go for it!
Perspective can be a valuable trait!

He's going be good folks, real good...
But as good as the staff has done in recruiting across the board.
They still have to get more Jackson Carman's- It's the one position
the staff has still under achieved, IMO

Actually our LT Isaiah Wynn when in the 1st round to New England. Pittman flipped soph Andrew Thomas 6'5 320 from RT to LT allowing 5-star RS freshman Isaiah Wilson 6'7 345 and true freshman Cade Mays 6'6 320 to battle it out for the RT spot.
Sr Center Gaillard 6'2 308, Sr LG Kendall Baker 6'6 310 and RSoph Ben Cleveland 6'6 340 round out the Oline.

If anything, I’m surprised he hasn’t lost more than 20lbs since January. I could have sworn I read that he was close to losing that much already back in April. With Batson & Caldwell all over you for 7 months, I figured it would be closer to 40lbs down by now.

They have to be careful with how fast and how much weight they lose bc, they will lose muscle along with the fat. Both will start breaking down at the same time when trying to lose weight to fast!!!
