Treand3 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Why did he cool on us much. Was it the poor play or was he just not that interested in us as I thought he was, I wouldn't say he cooled on us just that it'll be damn near impossible to pull him out of the southeast. IMO, he was a pipe dream in the first place. Never know though. Yeah very difficult to get top talent out of the south to come to the Midwest. As for Jon, we'll have to see. I do feel the longer he waits on a decision the better it could be for us. At first it was supposed to be in October then was pushed to December. Quote Link to comment
MT949597 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 A visit did wonders, just not nearly enough, looking for him to put on a hat from a South Carolina school when all is said and done. Quote Link to comment

If and only if he wasn't in the hornet's nets known as the SEC, he'd probably be ours. Quote Link to comment

Agreed, the worst part about recruiting against SEC schools is that we all know there is some fishy stuff that goes on. Quote Link to comment
epocSoN Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Imagine him and Clowney tearin it up together at South Carolina... I give him about a 10% chance to be N, I just don't see him getting pulled from the SEC. Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Imagine him and Clowney tearin it up together at South Carolina... They'd have a quality D line for sure. He'd definitely would have a clearer path to playing time there vs Clemson, imo. But the neither these schools what a shortage of athletes like him. Quote Link to comment
Nexus Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 There was a rumor that Jon committed to Clemson, but he denies those rumors. As SkerChi said he did enjoy his trip and will be taking other visits. http://clemson.infus...lent-commitment Wow. I was just coming to post this...beat me to it. The writer (on the forums, still free, just only open to Clemson fans) said that his gut is Clemson Well for our sake I hope these really are just rumors and we're still in the hunt. Our is in serious need of a stud DE, haven't had one in many years. I thought Bullard was a DT? And I hope that McMullen is a stud DE for us. Nope DE all the way, Jon said he has no desire to play DT at all and he won't if he comes to NU. He probably will get bigger but this is welcome considering the types of downhill offenses we face on a weekly basis. I too hope Greg is a stud at DE as well. Compared to the other teams in contention for Jon, we are severely thin at talent at DE, imo. Good call. After looking at his Rivals profile I see that is the case. I blame the OP for misleading me with the thread title. (Which probably shows that I seldom have recruiting insight outside of HB) I know right?!?! What was he thinking? Disrespectin' Jon like that! I've always heard bad things about that Nexus character anyways. A guy just can't make a simple mistake without people making a stink about it, huh? Quote Link to comment

DL is a huge need for Clemson this year. BTW, Bullard will be in Death Valley tomorrow Quote Link to comment
killer cacti Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Also, this will be an official visit to Clemson. Quote Link to comment

Didn't mean to downplay your team's needs, I just know we need a stud @ DE and haven't had one in a looooong time. I was aware that Jon will be at Clemson tomorrow. Quote Link to comment

Gotcha, I didn't know that because he just cancelled his visit to SCar for the Florida-SCar game. Also, I thought you were saying he'd play at SCar over Clemson because of talent.

I'm very happy with it, because I want him at either Clemson or Nebraska...no SCar. Quote Link to comment
