Clemson getting giddy about RN team mate commited and someone posted their mods think RN will not commit to them in the bext 24 hours
Why are you laughing that sounds reasonable to me. Odd to say will not commit in the next 24 hrs, but at least they didn't say he would commit within 24 hrs.

from a Clemson board saying the text is from S Watkins who RN said on twitter he was ahnging out with today.
Robert Nkemdiche just committed to Clemson via a Superstar on Clemsons' football team text message.

Someoone also posted that Tiger Insider said
The Thurs update says that someone close to him "says Robert wants to end his recruitment today"

Do you think he did, I thought he would be NSD.

I think the class will be in the 23-27 range with 25 the most likely IMO. That leaves 7 spots (8 if Deon doesn't sign because of grades).
So, we'll wind up with roughly half of this group:
Robert Nkemdiche
Derrick Henry
DeMarcus Walker
Matthew Thomas
Robert Foster
Josh McNeil
Brendan Langley
Walker Jones
Kenneth Santa Marina
Alvin Kamara
Tim Williams
Jalen Ramsey
Antonio Conner
Vonn Bell
Kendell Beckwith
We'll miss on several no doubt, but I also think that we won't have room for some of the above names. That's why I'm surprised that we took a 2nd QB and a LS in this class. In previous years, we've parted with commits to make room (Darryl Collins, Justin Thomas), but I don't see anyone in our commit list who looks like a strong candidate for that this year.

btw, regardless if you were to miss out on RN, or even RF Bama is just fine and has major talent throughout. I realize it would be great to get the top two as they standout far and above in the 2013 recruits.

If he commits, he obviously doesnt really want to win championships. 
Posted on 6/14/12 at 12:27 pm to RockyMtnTigerWDE
I doubt he did and if our sources are right that update might be as well true. His last team mate he was trying to get an offer for D Kamara got it yesterday. So maybe RN is ready because he got everyone their scholly. He will go home tonite and commit to UA.

Nkemdiche's tweets did sound a little odd. He's visiting Clemson, his team mate just committed, and here is what he tweeted.
If he committed to Clemson, LSU and Bama gonna have yolk on their face.

Well he'll have the entire football season to rethink his commitment after watching Clemson crash and burn during the year. Recruitment isn't over no matter what he does.
Posted on 6/14/12 at 12:40 pm to GregYoureMyBoyBlue
Yep I wouldn't put to much stock if he were to commit to Clemson today, I would still feel like Bama would still get him
Posted on 6/14/12 at 12:45 pm to T1gerWonder
I thought the same with Travis Blanks...
Posted on 6/14/12 at 12:47 pm to TideWarrior
What a fricking idiot. I hope he has fun being embarrassed on national television for 3 years. At least if he had picked LSU I could have maintained a bit of respect for him.

it hasn;t officially happend that I know of and again he may commit now that all his friends have and it very well could be to UA. Which I still think.

quote:
what makes the LS so important? Is it such a tough position to learn that you can't train a TE to do it?
It is important in the sense that the snap time (similar to a punter's "get off time") is vital to avoiding blocks, getting coverage down on punts, getting kicks & FGs off, etc. the better the snap time the less likely to have a block and more likely to cover with success. This guys snap time is supposed to be incredible.
Accuracy of snap is important as well. Ball placement on snap is very difficult to do consistently. This guy is very accurate.
Lots of guys can snap fast (he's supposedly the fastest). Lots of guys are accurate (he's supposedly very accurate). Few guys can do both exceptionally well. He supposedly can based on the eval at our camp.
Also, you can teach another guy to do it, but it takes practice time away for his true position and he likely leaves in a yr or two and you are staring over. To give this guy a scholly means you have a great snapping talent in place for four years.

If he commits today it wont be to Bama. This isnt close to over though.
