You must of just seen it in the Auburn replay.
I think we should relax a bit on composite team rank and focus on team average. Quality teams with big classes can win the composite. Would love to do it, but with 23-24 commits, Composite lead may be out of reach. Best average... should be close! Go Dawgs!!
That I did sir. The wins over FU and the barn we're on back to back.
I agree in part but would point out that even though Burch would add 15 points to UGA tally he would add less than 9 points to Clemson. His actual score shows around +30 but the other players scores get diluted and as you add commits it becomes harder to improve your score. the difference in having 25 v 23 recruits really has minimal impact on the total score. At that class level quality carries more weight than 1 or 2 extra. I feel UGA closes the gap quickly but will need 5-6 more top 50 recruits to be a serious challenger. Obviously that is very possible and would improve the average score whereas adding players outside of the top 150 will not increase the average nor will it seriously reduce the score gap.
At the end of the day the #1 class is 95% Quality, 5% quantity.
We all know Matt Boling (aka “white lightning”) is fast, but look who else just broke the U20 WR... Arian Smith... the wide receiver from Florida that is strongly considering us.
Things to look at above and beyond the big Composite score.....
1) Did the class meet its needs?
2) Does the class accelerate the size, length and athleticism in certain rooms?
3) Did the program win the head-to-head battles?
4) Are any of these guys in danger of not qualifying?
5) How many of these signees can play right away?
6) How many of these signees can enroll early?
Back to IMG for Mr Burton
Burch confirmed for Clemson's cookout
Not intending this to come across as disparaging the guy but what's the deal with all these moves? He's essentially changed HS programs on a yearly basis, correct? Extremely talented but I question whether he's a portal risk after year one.
Might of hit the nail on the head, as far as giving the staff pause here
Where are you guys seeing this? This is what I see:
Thats not not exactly a confirmation in my opinion.
@ClemTown , you got anything more concrete?
Welp. That stinks
Again, where are y’all seeing this, twitter? I see the Flowe stuff, but that’s no surprise.
I bet he visits his house this weekend tbh
Our bagmen need to step it up /s
Yeah. I've either read it here or elsewhere, but when a player jumps schools like this, it's speculated that they need the transfers for grades. IIRC, the NCAA is looking into limiting the number of HS transfers a player can make for this very reason, as it seems to be a bit of a loophole at the moment.
Idk if that makes him so much a portal risk, but more of an academic qualification risk...
... either way, as has been stated, there's a reason staff has cooled the jets on Burton.
Nothing is confirmed yet. As we all know, his camp moves very quietly, and they’ve been very good at retaining info this whole process, so I doubt anyone would have received confirmation of his travel plans 5 days in advance outside of the coaching staff.
Having said that, I can tell you that Clemson has marked this date down as “the big one” to try and get back in Burch’s recruitment. The staff has been working very hard to get him to visit, so if he does show, it will be a win for them, and needless to say, an important visit for Clemson’s chances
