Composite 4* per 247sports, 4* per Rivals. Had offers from Auburn, Clemson, UNC, UF, FSU, UGA, GT, Miami, Ole Miss, Oregon, among others. Pretty nice pick-up by the Gamecocks, and adds to an overall excellent 2015 OL class....

Not sure what caused this...

ETA: USCe already has 27 commits. How many spots are left?

Hate to see a kid fooled by a recruiter. Nothing sc has to offer is superior to Clemson, especially what is important. He is another one that bought the Sec propaganda. If you are good enough, the NFL will come calling regardless of conference. Once football is over realize that a degree from a reputable university is what is important. Sc's reputation is similar to that of a junior college. Combine that with student life, family atmosphere, safety, etc and there is no comparison between Clemson and sc.

Clemson's former players flock back to campus whenever possible while those at sc never return and borderline early NFL entrants leave the ghetto in Columbia at firs opportunity. Terrible decision for Bailey.


and here's the conspiracy....
quote:

How anybody can send their kid there is beyond me. They will finish off their class with around 30 kids, meaning they will send 5 kids home with a broken promise. Glad he is off our board, too bad our coaches chasing him appartenly cost us Boulware. Maybe that was what Bailey was waiting for.


this shite never gets old.

I think we can actually count back 8. We have 77 on scholarship right now. We're going to have several HS EE's and about 6 JUCO EE's. I think we are going for anywhere from 30-33 this class, but it's all going to depend on the player from here, we aren't going to just take players to take players.

He's been saying that for a couple months, even before we found out about the guys on the fence for this class. Look at the 2015 recruiting thread on the SC Board. I did a breakdown and cited the rules as they're written. I couldn't find anything in the NCAA rulebook about a 5 cap/limit for counting back. The way the rule is written that addresses the issue states that a school can count back scholarships to the difference they had the previous season up to the 85 limit that impacts all schools. It also doesn't mention anything about a school not being able to count back up to limit they might have had the previous year under penalty. So I thought we would just Vol this and do what we want, as long as it's not written that we can't.


It's towards the bottom of this page, LINK Conway also found a link to where UGA did something similar a couple years ago as well.

Yes, but we're operating under an 82 limit roster this season ... which would apply to the back-entries as well. Therefore, instead of 8 it would be 5. Or at least I think that is how the coaches are figuring it for this coming class.

We'll still sign 32 or 33, look to place two or three, enroll 25 and retroactively enroll 5 because we're operating with 77 right now.

Nobody can tell me where he is from? I mean, I can look it up, but I figured USCe fans would know.

Clemson fans are the weirdest and most delusional fans of any team, pro sports or college.

Tigernet is just a jungle of deluded groupthink. When the only actions mods take is to snuff out any sort of dissenting opinions and blind support without logic is championed, you get a dumb fan base.
