Zachary Evans - No offer?


Mar 28, 2019, 12:48 PM

Has anyone figured out the reason we haven't offered Zachary Evans out of Houston? He's #2 player in the country and his measurable's and stats are once in a generation type stuff. He seems to be good friends with DJ Uiagalelei and has expressed multiple times on twitter to play with DJ at Clemson. Has anyone figured out why Elliot hasn't offered this kid yet. I trust Elliot's evaluation of players with Etienne, Lyn-J, etc. but I cannot for the life of me figure out why he hasn't offered this kid yet makes me think something is up. Thoughts?

Has the kid been to Clemson's campus?

If no, then you have your answer.

Tweeting interest and actually showing up to Clemson are two different things, and our staff isn't going to throw out offers if the kids aren't willing to come take a peek.

Then the reasoning is likely that the coaches did not check all of the boxes that they did with other players.

The other option is that the coaches really like him but have other players at the same position that they like even better and feel really good about.

NO he didn't, something about a handler

Let’s start a fire Elliot campaign. Who does he think he is?

If we don’t get offer a top recruit from Houston area prob a reason


Mar 28, 2019, 12:57 PM

Houston has become ground zero for the shoe company influenced 7 on 7 teams whose coaches (not HS coach) are taking over recruitment of many from this region.

I think the staff just likes their chances better between Bowman, Ngata, and Knighton. Since we are only bringing in 2 backs.

Read elsewhere about a potential "handler"


Mar 28, 2019, 1:08 PM

I don't know if it is true or not, but it makes sense. They mentioned that his brother could be acting as a handler and that his recruitment is going to require more than a scholarship. Also read that he's been visiting schools with a large posse, so that kinda makes sense.

He's a really good player. There's obviously something outside-the-lines holding back an offer.

Re: Read elsewhere about a potential "handler"


Mar 28, 2019, 1:14 PM

Hmmm... heard something about a handler too but not his brother... "handler" very interesting if some shady cash is involved with this kid then don't be surprised if he ends up at UGA at the last second considering how notoriously shady their recruiting methods are.

Mar 28, 2019, 1:21 PM [ in reply to Read elsewhere about a potential "handler" ]

he'll likely end-up at Auburn, Georgia, or Tennessee.

Re: Translation...


Mar 28, 2019, 2:10 PM

My understanding is to get him you have to also take an OL that is on his high school team. He will not go to any school that does not take them as a pair. We are probably done taking OL

Yep that’s the rb I would rather have as well. Don’t know how the Evans kids is once a generational type measurable since there are 4 or 5 rbs this cycle that are similar incredible athletes.

Mar 28, 2019, 3:40 PM

I love Bowman and think he could flourish in our offense so im more than ecstatic to have a chance at him, but Zachary Evans is in a different teir of pure athleticism. Thats not to say whose going to be the better college player, but Zachary Evans is a better athlete than Travis ETN RIGHT NOW. He's special.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Zachary Evans is nice ...


Mar 28, 2019, 4:25 PM

Agreed. Bowman is a special player I’d love to have and would flourish in our offense. However, Evans is just generational, he ran a verified 3.84 shuttle at an event the other day. Forget high school... that would a Top 10 shuttle ever at the NFL combine. Bowman is special the same way Deshaun was “special”. But Evans is generational the same way Trevor is “generational”

Re: Zachary Evans is nice ...


Mar 28, 2019, 6:08 PM

He steps on any campus in the country and he's probably the most physically gifted athlete on the team. I seen him squatting nearly 600 lbs as a 17 year old kid who weighs under 200 lbs. Thats in the top 1% of the world for his weight and unheard of for most people his age. I don't think we get him and that doesn't bother me because the way our offense is set up We'll be fine in the Backfield regardless...but its strange how some people are trying to diminish this kids pure Talent.
