Most agree and understand that Dabo won't just go "all in" on portal acquisitions and will need to be selective in order to preserve the locker room and culture. So what does the ideal portal player look like for Clemson? Here's a few of my thoughts, I'd love to hear yours......
1. Proven player at a lower level looking to improve draft profile. The league is littered with guys from smaller schools. We need to find a few future pros.
2. Final year P5 guys with 1 chance left to prove something. The common theme here is motivation....and not the kind that spends.
3. Has a prior relationship with Clemson. Whether directly or through other channels, we know the person already.
I think the other characteristics follow our recruiting MO.....no red flags, hard worker, looking to be a better person, etc. And obviously will be applied to critical needs areas.
