Somebody Should Check the French Fries in the Greenwood High School Cafeteria

February 4, 2010

There has got to be something rotten in the food to make Kelcy Quarles say something li

ke this:

"That shows you right there that there's pride in going to South Carolina instead of Clemson or somewhere out of state," said Quarles, who attended Lattimore's announcement. "We're going to beat Clemson every year, so they might as well get ready for it."

I hope he's preparing for a comedy career, because Clemson losing to Soccer Liner even two years in a row would be a monumental, historic event. So, somebody should let Kelcy Quarles know that four in a row is HIGHLY unlikely.

Signing Day 2010

February 3, 2010

Clemson signed a top 20 recruiting class today. 17 of Clemson's 23 signees (74%) had SEC offers. You can read Dabo Swinney's press conference here. This story stood out to me:

"When did you feel like you had Justin Parker?
Swinney: I was at Tavaris Barnes’ house last Tuesday night. Walking out with Jeff Scott. He called me walking out of the house and said ‘I’m coming to Clemson.’ He was playing a video game and he said I wanted to let you know I’m coming to Clemson. He didn’t want to make it public until today. Tuesday, Jan. 19 he called and said he was coming and has been solid as a rock ever since."

With all the players they have to evaluate and recruit, college football coaches' cell phone contact lists must be off the chain.
