I'll be the first to admit that I don't know what to really look for in technique/tape as my high school coach can vouch for but this kid looks as legit as it gets
 

Makes it that much more understandable that he moved down 2 spots in the latest rankings. I kid, I kid.

He seems like a great fit for CLEMSON football and a young man who has been doubted to a degree already. Very much like his upside and approach towards why he has such a bright future specifically at CLEMSON. I hope he continues to be downplayed on and hungry. Let’s go.

Time will tell what he'll be.

But I'll happily self-pat the back with this repost of a mailbag question from a while ago:

--------------------------------

Waterfowlobession: Can you rank the current offensive line offers on which you would most want?

PAUL: An important distinction you provide, as this denotes personal taste rather than where I believe they should be ranked. And there is a difference.

Wrote last summer that Orlando (Fla.) First Academy four-star Chancellor Barclay (6-4, 280) was my favorite from the Dabo Swinney Camp, and that stands among the 13 prospects Matt Luke has offered this cycle.

That doesn't mean he should be ranked the highest; that distinction tends to go to the premium larger-framed linemen, and justifiably so. A case can always be made for finding the combination of height, length and feet that culminate in Clemson this year rolling out Miller and Leigh as its veteran tackles.

But I really liked Barclay's agility and work ethic paired with a personality that marries into Clemson's culture. More athleticism into that room.
 
Saw Brandon Jacob’s dad outside the game and bless the dudes that tried to tackle that guy. Keith Brooking sat in front of me and think he could still put pads on and play

It's crazy that Brayden dwarfs Brandon. He's that big.

Brooking still gives off gritty, mean SOB vibes to this day.

IMO, Logan was one of the biggest pleasant surprises of the spring.

Agree about Brooking. Looked like a bad dude

My 5 year old son was playing on the field and asked Jacobs to sign his football. Brandon Jacobs is a monster. Brayden makes him look like a regular human.
 
Talk about a guy I completely misevaluated first time I saw the film. Man I’m hyped to have him in this class what a stud
 
And he doesn’t have a bunch of baby fat on him. Same build as Chester McGlockton for a person that large. I was on campus when Chester was a freshman and I asked my roommate which LB that was. He was that well put together.
Yeah he looks great, footwork, body composition. Curious, are those scrubs he’s throwing around or highly rated athletes?
 
He’s had multiple great camp performances. So it makes even less sense. I’m sure there’s no bias because he committed to Clemson??
At some point it stops being a conspiracy and starts to become reality. Even the kids that are trending our way dropped. It's like Rivals ranks the kids based on the power 2 conferences affiliation. I'd love for someone to do the breakdown of Clemson commits over the years with their starting ranking compared to where they finished. The disparity in drops vs risers has to be astonishing.

Barclay reminds me of Pouncey. That is a heavy burden to carry but it looks like the young man is up to it.
