HOLY SHIT we are on recruiting fire. Everyone who wonders why we hired Dabo, this is the reason. The man is a recruiting genius.

He just hired a new OC, got a new OL coach and our D has been flat out amazing. His OC has been his problem the first two years. If our OC can run his offense this year and we can get some consistent play at QB, then we will be good. Our QB is actually a qb we took from you guys, Tajh Boyd. His idol is Troy Smith.

It seems like Clemson pulls in big time recruits every year recently. Unfortunately they never seem to put it together just like the rest of the ACC.

This is a bit of a misnomer. We have been out recruited by many schools the last few years. Last year's class was like #20, year before was like #35, year before was very good. But we don't recruit quite on the level of many of the top top schools. This is the first class filled with good LBs and WRs in a long time.

Well this is interesting.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- John F. Kennedy High football player and Ohio State University recruit Chris Carter was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of fondling as many eight girls while pretending to measure them for ROTC uniforms.

Carter, 18, was held overnight in City Jail.


Cleveland Police said a 15-year-old girl told officers that Carter took her out of her classroom and into a room behind the JFK auditorium and told her he needed to measure her for the uniform.

"Once inside the room, (Carter) asked the victim to take off her sweatshirt and shirt so he could take her measurements," the police report said. "He cut off the lights. . . and stated 'I need you to take your bra off.' The arrested male than put his arms under her arms from behind and attempted to pull her bra up."

The girl told police she refused to cooperate and left the room.

Police said when they talked to Carter he admitted that he had fondled other girls using the same ruse. Police asked him to give them the book that he used to record the measurements and he turned it over.

"The book revealed more victims," the report said, noting there was measurement information for eight girls in the book.

Another victim told police that Carter stopped her in the hallway and asked her to come into a room where he "asked her to take her clothes off. The victim took off everything except her panties" and then he measured her, police said in the report.

Carter was taken to the police station on suspicion of sexual imposition.


Cleveland lawyer Harvey Brunner said this morning that he has been retained to represent Carter but had not met with his client or the family yet.


Carter, a 6-5, 350-pound offensive lineman, has received an athletic scholarship offer from Ohio State University and gave the school his commitment after touring the campus. Neither John F. Kennedy nor Ohio State could be reached to comment on the status of the scholarship offer.

Carter,a three-star recruit, described his commitment to Ohio State last year as the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.

Yeah I just saw that. I would think it's safe to say Carter won't end up in this class for at least a little while.

I will go ahead and answer this question. No he cannot coach. Dabo has always seemed like he was in way over his head. The sad thing is, Clemson always has plenty of talent and they never get "it" done.

Duane Long seemed to like him. Look for his thoughts on 2011 QBs in his blog. Not a bad pick up.
