You are right, i do take disagreements personal sometimes and should not.

As far always being right what I'm trying to do is point out flaws in the thought process. Unfortunately that going to come across as more arrogant than I intend, its made worse since I'm not articulate enough to explain it better and a message board is not the best place to try and explain that type of complex position.

with RN, he may fit better as a 4-3 DE, I don't disagree, that's not the point. If he goes to Bama and plays Jack or a 3-4 D it won't hurt his chances to be drafted high in the NFL. If you think it will, you are deluding yourself.

Clemson (or even MSU or OM) has guys drafted, even in the first, all the time. They just don't have as many pro prospects or guys in the NFL as LSU or Bama. Going to any of those 3 will also not hurt his chances of being drafted high. That's all I'm trying to say.

How awesome would this be with Gilmore and Robert Nkemdiche. On the same line with the rest of the guys we might get. This could be the best recruiting class ever at LSU.

I have been quietly hoping when many have given up. His dad said he favored LSU. That alone has my kept my hopes alive. Hopefully his dad will play a major factor in where he ends up.

Bankroll after bankroll......

That's nothing compared to dyer. He had like 40-50 grand in a pic I think. You don't want to get too offended at the process. These kids make the schools millions.... It's like a speeding law, rarely enforced.

Thank you for a well thought out response. I understand where you are coming from now and I do not disagree with you. I just don't see much wrong with sunshine pumping on this board even if it is not right in most cases.

Seems like a really good kid...but that video should be titled "RN talks about all top schools"

I've seen three videos of him recently, and he always says LSU first. Not that that means anything of course.

It's amazing that, if Clemson is really paying players like some many photos suggest, they haven't been caught. I mean, just check out this photo of Travis Blanks and his new car after he committed to Clemson:



Then there's this picture:



People, mainly in the SEC circle, are quick to point out Alabama and Auburn for cheating, but at least we don't make it this damn obvious. It's crazy that the NCAA isn't knocking down their door by now.
