That there’s going to be some extra opportunity to get on board with the Tigers? We are losing a lot of players on both sides of the ball to Draft and eligibility, plus the losses of some of the 2026 recruits. Playing time and winning used to be a main incentive to come to a program, but now with the NIL money, being a loser is OK if the price is right.

when your pitch to high 3-star and low 4-star recruits is the chance for early playing time.

based on the way we've looked with some fairly highly rated guys I've reached the point where I ignore stars. This group was vastly overrated coming out of high school as they have shown this year. There are times the D doesnt know how to line up or who to cover at times. Not opening day stuff. It is 2/3 of the way through the season and it has been that way from the start.

It's beyond a reasonable doubt that stars correlate to higher quality....

...players.

And please spare us the regurgitating of Renfrow and every other outliner you can think of in 100 years of Clemson Football.

hey pal, all I said was this group was vastly overrated and they clearly are. Name someoen we have playing like a 4 or 5 star. Maybe Weco or Williams but that is about it.
