And thankfully we have Georgia North Carolina and Tennessee for all our recruiting needs.

Only four 4* recruits in the entire state per 247 comp...

#'s 128, 245, 308 & 325 in National rankings...

Slim pickings


Right.

If you have been following things for a while though, the pattern is that in four years a number of these guys you never heard of are going to make it to the NFL and stick.

Depending on what source you look at, South Carolina does very well per capita in eventual NFL players. Not as good as Mississippi or Lousiana, but I've seen a couple of those where we are ahead of Georgia.

I will say that the pattern also seems to be some guy that is obscure even to SC natives goes to Appalachian State or whatever, then sticks in the NFL for 10 years. Go figure.

lemson is currently #13 in the recruiting rankings with only 1 commit from the state of South Carolina.


CLemson ranking in lower because there are less recruits in this class.

recruiting ranks are projections, chiseled in stone. Renfrow wasn't highly recruited.

Josh Norman (Coastal Carolina) and Armanti Edwards (App State) come to mind. Both played at Greenwood High School.

I think you're confused haha. Clemson doesn't recruit SC unless their is a player that catches their eye. They have 1 commit from the state. The top recruit in the state picked SC because AJ Terrell out of GA commit to clemson. SC players are clemson's plan b and c kids.


Congrats on your win but don't get delusional. Alshon Jeffery, Marcus Lattimore, clowney, Gilmore, and Holloman etc were guys that could've gone almost anywhere. They were also all guys that got offered by Clemson and ended up in Cola. Two of them even committed to Clemson and flipped later. Congrats on the win though

That also was when we were going through a coaching change.... if they were in high school now clemson would take them. And I'd also assume that they would of been clemson leans. Clemson takes the best player of need, if they are in SC that's who they go after.
