Building a defsensive class

Building a defensive recruiting class after the loss of Robert Nkemdiche. This has been the top issue for Dabo Swinney the last two days. Everyone has been so focused on the comings and goings of the top defensive end, they have failed to notice some of the other notable additions to the Clemson lineup. Clemson has recently added Scott Pagano, the Hawaiian defensive tackle, and also have been trying to coerce Montravius Adams, another defensive tackle into becoming a Tiger. While the Tigers have slowly been chipping away at becoming a top 10 team, it is becoming more challenging for the recruiting staff to keep players away from Alabama, LSU, and Ole Miss. Through the months Clemson has lost several good commits to these other schools. Dabo and his recruiting staff have added several important defensive backs to the depth chart. The staff will be focused heavily on bringing a unstoppable defensive to Death Valley next year. If they get whip the defense into shape, next year the Clemson Tigers can be on of the top ranked teams in the NCAA. 

Breaking news on 5 star recruit Robert Nkemdiche!

The soap opera story of Robert Nkemdiche has encountered a new twist. The number one Defensive End recruit has been committed to Clemson University for months, but several weeks ago, his mother's interview cause doubt in the minds of the Clemson staff. The local newspaper interviewed Robert's coach asking about his commitment information, and he confirmed that the young player has officially uncommitted from Clemson University. He says that the final answer was a family decision. The head coach continues on later to say that the Defensive End is still highly interested in becoming a Tiger, but he has an older brother that plays for Ole Miss and he would like to be closer to his family. This issue is something that has been a concern for the Clemson staff ever since Robert's mother got involved in his college decision process. His mother was interviewed after he officially made his decision, which gives a lot of insight into the real issues behind the college choices. This is a difficult pill for Clemson fans to swallow, but the staff will be trying extremely hard to change his mind.

Robert Nkemdiche and .... his mother

Robert Nkemdiche, the top defensive end from Georgia, has been committed to play for Clemson for a couple months now, but unfortunately his mother is still not happy about the decision. Robert says that Ole Miss is still a strong contender in his college decision, which would make his mother happy. Ole Miss is also where Robert's brother is a red shirt freshman. Only time will tell on who gets to make his college decision. Him or his mother.
