I've been told he hasn't been accepted as a commit for football yet, bit most likely will. Things may have changed since I was told as it was not long after he committed to coach Kingston.

I don't see us giving him an nli unless he is a solid take and is for sure coming to campus with the new signing restrictions and his mlb draft status

I agree due to the new rule on how many can sign a NLI why take a chance on a kid that will , most likely, be drafted by MLB in the first 2 rounds.

Luke Doty gave a silent verbal to Boom last night.

Nice! Thanks!

So he's our official 2020 QB in the class?

Kid can run for a white boy. I had been hearing that Dan Werner wanted him in a bad way.

That kid parties. One look at him and I know. Hope it’s not another García.

Heard multiple Clem fans saying they're way more concerned with Doty than they are about Hilinski. I think the two of them compliment each other well. Polar opposites in the personality department. Hilinski is humble, Doty oozes that Garcia confidence.

I'm all for having fun in college. Lord knows I had mine. But I also wasn't on scholly to play big time football. Hope he doesn't let five points get to him.

I'll get to see him play again this year at least once.

Kid is a phenom.

I suspect our coaches will sort of take control and make sure he walks the line for the next 18 months. He'll be ship shape between now and then and he evidently grew-up a Gamecock fan so hopefully no one will be able to poach him between now and then but they are gonna try.

Va Tech really covets him big time. Others are coming.

ETA: Edited to correct the above in bold. I completely misheard what I was told, and that's on me. He grew up a Clemson fan ... and then I was told hopefully they will not poach him. But that didn't register in my mind and ... well, I just heard it wrong. My bad.

Kid grew up a Clemson fan but they have yet to offer and he took that as a slight since they were showing him zero attention.

Now that that's clarified it was further clarified to me tonight that his parents would not dismiss a Clemson offer because evidently they are Clemson people big time ... BUT, even they are saying he is not going to entertain any other offers and he's going to be attending our camps and ballgameS.

Also, I was told this. Someone from Clemson reached out to him today (or yesterday I guess actually) and asked him how solid his commit to us is and what if he came up for a visit yada yada and Doty told them thanks but no thanks. Then something about Renfro? something or other but the storm was quailing us and we lost power and didn't have a good connection so that was the end of the conversation.

And I know the name rings a bell but I cannot figure out who Renfro is ... Renfro?

Then they are morons Hilinski is a 1st rounder with arm, measurables and intangibles. Then again no-one accused them of being smart. Doty is good but will likely xferr for PT under Ryan.

Edit: Doty is a Clem legacy who was shot on by them so he may show out and we could have a legit qb issue as well.

So you can look at someone and tell that they party? If you don't know for sure then you need to stfu. To call out a kid because he looks a certain way is freaking immature as hell.

We’ll let it play out and see. I have a hunch is all.

I’m sure Doty is going to look for this thread and really appreciate your white knighting for him. :eyeroll:

I would say that for anyone. To make accusations like that is called defamation of character. It's just stupid to make that comment about a Gamecock recruit . Like I said if you don't have proof then stfu.

So can we assume you majored in Crystal ball reading or how to judge someone from a distance? Sorry I just get pissed off with anyone that talks shite about someone with no proof.

lol this is such a baseless claim, how tf does he look like he parties. What is the criteria here. how does he look like he parties but Connor Shaw doesnt.

If for some odd reason its true, it worked for Johnny Manziel. Maybe it works for us. Also, I don't see Muschamp putting up with that shite like Spurrier did.

Like I said, a hunch. A gut feeling if you will. Nothing more. Hope I’m wrong.

Hey I asked about this tonight while I was being corrected (and I corrected an earlier post about Doty but was calling to ask about this when I was set straight) and ... the kid is not a partier at all. He's free wheeling happy go lucky typical teenage kid. Makes good grades. Doesn't let the girls get to him ... and evidently they are crawling on him. Comes from a good family (Clemson people, where I misheard and made my earlier mistake and was corrected) and he works hard, has a summer job, coaches and teachers love him. No history of discipline problems whatsoever.

That’s good to know! Glad to hear it. Hopefully it stays that way. The talent at USC is a bit better than his high school I’m sure though, so he better watch out there ha.
