NATION’S NO. 1 HIGH SCHOOL RECRUIT CHOOSES MICHIGAN OVER CLEMSON

Yesterday, we made the case that No. 1 national high school football recruit Rashan Gary should choose Clemson University’s football team over the University of Michigan.

Today, we’re celebrating the fact Gary didn’t take our advice …

(Our founding editor is a lifelong fan of the University of South Carolina, Clemson’s in-state arch-rival on the gridiron).

The 6-foot-4, 287-pound defensive tackle from Paramus Catholic school in New Jersey chose the Wolverines over the Tigers in a nationally-televised announcement on ESPN.

“God sent me a signal,” Gary said regarding his Lebron James-esque decision.

Hold up … what?

Wasn’t Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney supposed to have the market cornered when it comes to Christian recruits?  Seriously … isn’t Jesus basically the Tigers’ recruiting coordinator?

And didn’t S.C. governor Nikki Haley basically give Clemson access to the state’s taxpayer-funded plane to recruit as needed?

LOL …

Obviously Clemson still had one hell of a recruiting class.  In fact they scored yet another Top Ten class, according to ESPN’s rankings.

The Tigers landed the nation’s No. 6, No. 18, No. 21 and No. 53 high school talents, according to ESPN’s Top 300 list.  Leading the way?  Dexter Lawrence, a 6-foot-5, 335-pound defensive tackle from Wake Forest High School in Wake Forest, N.C.

So clearly there’s going to be no drop-off in talent this coming season – even with the Tigers sending several players to the NFL.

South Carolina finished with the nation’s No. 29 class, according to ESPN – trailing SEC East rivals Georgia, Florida and Tennessee.

Hey, we finished with a top 10 (or top 5 depending on the rating service) class without him. Hard not to be happy today.

Still behind my FSU, the only team in the ACC to win a National Title since 1991. Actually win one and I will worry about what Clemson does. This year we will have our starting QB in and you wont get out with the W. No divisional title, no conference, no playoffs for you this year girls. See you again in another 35 years I guess. Go Noles!

FSU baby February 4, 2016 at 10:35 am

nice try, at least our kicker didnt get busted with coke (twice)! Seriously win a national title again for the 1st time in more years than any players you have (and some of their parents too) were actually alive, then come back! Until then you are posers that blew your one chance. By the way we only joined the ACC in 1991 and have more titles than any other school in it, including you as a charter member. you ain’t elite, you only pretend to be. Hope it was fun, because with our recruiting class better again this year, it wont happen for a while if it ever does. Go Noles!

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 10:44 am

You are comparing possession of cocaine to rape? That explains a lot.

Oh, and SCOREBOARD. See you in October.

FSU baby February 4, 2016 at 11:23 am

I’m pretty sure there was no conviction, so actually he didn’t rape anyone, I guess kind of like your receiver never threw a girl down a flight of stairs or the other one that beat up his girl with a shower rod, but good try. By the way did that scoreboard get you a National Title? Nope, but ours did! it actually did it 3 times but twice while in the ACC. We also have 3 Heisman winners to your none, and more overall bowl wins too. You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!!! Stick to debating with the dirtpeckers, you are out of your league here Go Noles!

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 11:29 am

Again… SCOREBOARD.

FSU baby!! February 4, 2016 at 11:37 am

Again….You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!! Go Noles!

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 11:42 am

And, again, there is not much more to say than…

SCOREBOARD.

FSU baby February 4, 2016 at 12:52 pm

And again and again and again ALL I have to remind you of is you might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!! But let me add to it as you cant understand. We own Conference, we own the series (20-9 or 69%),so we own you! I guess those 6 years the shitty dirtpeckers kept beating your ass when all you did was reply we have the overall records makes you hypocrites huh? 1 win with our back up QB and you think you did something? The ACC will be ours again as it has 15 times in just 23 years which is more than you have done in total since it was founded. What is that like only 1950 something? 65 years or so? Good job this year, enjoy your once in a blue moon thing, it wont happen again. Lil’ Bitch!!! Go Noles

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 1:19 pm

23-13

FSU baby February 4, 2016 at 1:22 pm

69% win rate 20-9 overall and 15 title in only 23 years! You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!! Go Noles!

It doesn’t matter though, like I keep telling you, You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!! Go Noles!.

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 3:29 pm

The scoreboard would indicate otherwise.

23-13

FSU baby February 4, 2016 at 3:53 pm

20-9 says this, You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!! Go Noles!.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clemson%E2%80%93Florida_State_football_rivalry

Its funny it says rivalry but its way one sided. it shows 20-9 with an 11 game win streak in there as well as the largest margin of victor. 57 points. I’ve said it once I’ll say it every time. You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!! Go Noles!. current streak sits at 1 and will switch next year. Bye bye Lil’ Bitches

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 7:12 pm

And yet, none of that helped you in the last meeting. Win the next one, then talk smack, dear.
23-13

FSU baby February 4, 2016 at 10:31 pm

You could win them all until 2027 and still not have the edge, so get that then talk smack sweetheart. Never ever forget the truth, You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!!

mamatiger92 February 4, 2016 at 10:55 pm

But we won the most recent one. Which is all that matters. Enjoy polishing that recruiting trophy.

23-13

FSU baby February 5, 2016 at 9:40 am

Yeah because you always said that “only the most recent one matters” to the Dirtpeckers when they beat your ass 6 years in a row. No, you are changing the story because during that run all you said was history and series, now all of a sudden that doesn’t matter? What ever lets you sleep at night. By the way the trophy I will polish is our recent NCAA champion trophy while you wish there was one for a participant. One day you might catch up to us but we both know you wont. 15 in 23 years ACC champs, 20-9 record over you. 11 wins in a row during that span (that had to hurt) a 57-0 ass whooping (that hurt too), and an epic beat down at your own home on national TV that coined the phrase Clemsoning (nuff said). Face it we own you. You might win one here and there, but you will always be our little bitch!!

I’m just guessing but Harbaugh’s unique ability to shape him for the NFL must of been a tipping factor. That or the kid just wanted to stay in the North. Clemson still has it going on, especially for a ACC team.
