7/30 musings (Clemson247)
quote:

... Naturally, Booth, Vonta Bentley, Joe Ngata and Etinosa Reuben have garnered the headlines since the weekend, but Clemson advanced its standing with five-star offensive lineman Clay Webb as well. Clemson247 reported on Thursday evening that he'd be making the trek with his mom.

I think it's fair to frame Clemson and Alabama as the frontrunners, although Georgia and Auburn are certainly in the mix and could pull rank over time. A decision isn't expected until after some officials this fall, and I think the longer this recruitment goes the better for Clemson. 

What worked in Clemson's favor was the Tigers' ability to attack this recruitment from a pretty under-the-radar position. That's not really the case now after Webb camped at Clemson and elected to return for the All-In Cookout, but it stood true this spring when everybody had already penciled him in as an Alabama commitment. 

Mom is a huge fan of Clemson. And sometimes that's all you need to win a recruiting battle. Todd Bates doesn't hurt, either. Talk about a job this guy has been doing on the recruiting trail. Wow...

I honestly don't think the Clemson 247 site knows shite...

I think it's a Bama vs UGA battle until the end and Clemson is a distant 3rd...Clay has said numerous times that his favorite coaches and the men he has the biggest bond with are Pittman and Key

Just some Bama boys taking a Spring Break pic while in Florida this March.

Nothing to see here.

Even if I didn't know Webb was a beast I would want him in the class purely because of that t-shirt

Not sure what you think this proves. But I will clue you in....

Zip, nada nothing. I am not making predictions but I know UGA is in the mix. Sam Pittman has gotten every offensive lineman he wanted last year - wouldn’t bet against him pulling an upset of conventional wisdom here.

Did you have UGA landing John Emery last week?

What does that have to do with Sam Pittman?

Are you talking about the 2018 class or 2017 class?

We’ll allow you to have Webb if we get Harry Miller.

You might.

We've all convinced ourselves he's a "lock" but that confidence is starting to shake a little.

If he's the lock or "silent commit" we all believe he is, then why not commit and start helping out with recruiting?

It's frustrating. Webb could possibly spark a little more momentum if he would go ahead and commit.

I think ultimately bammie gets him but I don't believe he's a lock at all.

I think most Georgia fans feel like he is Alabama's right now, but feel we are in it. If Urban gets the boot at OSU, and Miller decides to go elsewhere, I think we give up on Webb and concentrate on Miller.
If none of that happens, it will be interesting to see the two programs duke it out for Webb.

I don’t think you give up on a guy like Webb if he’s interested in you.

If you know you have Miller’s commitment, than I guess you can give up, but you definitely don’t back off if you’re not certain you have the other guy locked up.

I'm not trolling but I like that you think I am.

Not until I joined SEC rant did I hear the term "insecure U" as it applied to alabama.

I get it now and big veiny dicks like you are the reason why.

Get back to your frickin' echo chamber a-hole.
