Believe Tommy DeVito(Bosco QB) and Boyd the Katy,TX LB also have been planning to come up this weekend.

Bryce Morais' high school coach just joined the Clemson staff. Grayson produces a lot of talented players. Best of luck to Al as he continues to recruit the most difficult territory for BC but still do better than everyone else.

which recruit does clemson want

All of them? I didn't realize Robert Nkemdiche went there. SEC ponied up the cash. Clemson ponies up the cash and hires the coach.

Is Kenyatta Watson still there? He's BC's link to AW.

[BCSUPERFAN22]

Watson is still there, he deals with all the recruiting for the program (shows you how good they are that you need a dedicated recruiting liaison at a HS). I think Clemson already got a commitment from the QB at Grayson for 2017 but I'm sure there are a number of other kids they offered. Watson's son is actually a 2018 or 2019 CB who will probably have some really good offers.

Also, I think this is a little more than Clemson trying to hire this guy just to get a kid. Dabo and the coach at Grayson were college roommates at Bama and the Grayson coach is the uncle of the Grayson QB going to Clemson in the '17 class.

Jelani McCargo on campus today. Holds NCSU offer. 6'1/225lb LB from Woodrow Wilson HS in Camden, NJ.

New offer out to Edwin Lopez, WR/CB from same high school. Other offers from NCSU and Cuse

all that hard work Spaz put in building his wall around the ISL

[ILikeBC]

I really don't understand why people think he's so good. I think he's a goal line back at best. The kid is powerful...but massive and slow.

The first three choices I can live with over BC, but the last two are very #sore considering this guy was priority 1 for 2017.

That's why he has all those fake offers and will end up somewhere like UConn.

Meh. Carson Desrosiers

[BCSUPERFAN22]

Ben Stewart just committed. Safety from Cathedral in Indianapolis. Held Iowa offer

[claver2010]

kid with p5 & ivy offers? perfect

for the people that stroke it to such, these last 2 commits would rank 3rd & 4th best commits from the '16 class (247).

[ILikeBC]

See what happens when you build an indoor facility?

[ILikeBC]

The kid's tape is good. He hits like (but just a little less hard than) Matt Milano. Doesn't seem like the type who misses many tackles.

[BCSUPERFAN22]

Some more offers today ...

Tommy Devitto, QB from Bosco. Rutgers, Cuse, Maryland to date
Arthur Sitkowski, '18 QB from NJ

[BCSUPERFAN22]

He visited Iowa recently, I have a feeling this is a direct result of Reid having a relationship from Iowa that carried over.

The kid is a good player. I think he's more of that hybrid LB/Safety role but that's a good pull.

Nice to see us get a plan A guy

Ben Stewart - Connell School of Nursing '2021

[BCSUPERFAN22]

One of the 247 guys (from Wisconsin) predicted Ben Petrula to BC today. 6'6 295lb OL from SPP with solid offer sheet including Wisconsin, UVA, UNC, Cuse, UK, USCe and Rutgers.

[NaturalLight]

We've got 2 picks now for NJ OT and 247 4 star Ben Petrula. Also we picked up another pick to land Robert Martin from NJ as well. I would attribute this directly to the hiring of Campanile. He, or someone else on staff, is clearly putting in work in NJ. Now that we at least have the kids talking about committing to BC we just need them to pull the trigger.

24 pointed this out to me, but worth looking at as a reason for the current "predictions" ...

[BCSUPERFAN22]

- Pat Bartlett was on campus today. 6'5/305 OL from Council Rock HS in PA. Offers from BC, Cuse, Illinois, Zona, UNC, MSU, PSU, Pitt, UVA, VT and Rutgers

- On the QB front, Jordan McAfee from Everett, who BC offered a while back, received and offer from Yukon today. I have not heard anything about him recently in re: to BC so I think its safe to assume they are no longer recruiting him (as a QB at least as he doesn't fit Loeffler and was probably a stretch in the first place to think he can be a D1 QB)

[31southst]

JR from EA thinks we have "a really good shot" at Petrula. Also thinks we have a good shot at LB Ben Mason from CT as long as Michigan or ND doesn't offer.

Did he say if either had plans to visit soon ??

[bceagles24]

Mason was on campus this weekend. Also on top of the ones already mentioned Curtis Harper and JR Pace were as well. Not sure if Collin Smith visiting was mentioned already.
