'26 VA WR Connor Salmin (Clemson Verbal)

How did this turn into a NIL discussion when Clemson likely isn’t top 15 in it lol

I think Michigan, USC and A&M are up there now

I don’t.

Can you breakdown everyone USC is paying and why their HS recruiting and portal class were both worse than NDs each of the last two seasons as well as roster retention and talent output yet they outspend Notre Dame

Clearly, Clemson outbid us, it’s quite obvious.

We should continue to expect WR to be the toughest position for us to recruit until we have some actual success there. It is what it is. A Malachi fields / Jaden Greathouse 1,000 yard year would be helpful.

I ain't here to cry cuz I only thought Salmin was a good back-half of a class take. At this point in his career he's a Go route runner with jet sweep at the HS level flexibility. His next cut will be his first. I remember watching his highlights for a LONG time before I saw something that wasn't a go route or jet sweep. He had a lot to learn. Still, woulda been nice at the 4 spot in a 4 WR haul.

He is going to have a Cam Williams FR year behind all of that talent at Clemson. And it's young with Wesco and Moore backing up Williams (who didn't enter the draft) and a healthy Tyler Brown. They may be the top passing O in the nation this year and you took a shot at Clemson's offense... that seems off. If Leonard's final passing stat line read 3600/63%/36TD/6Int, we'd be the NC's.

What were their results against the teams that mattered?

3 points and 188 yards against Georgia
21 points and 4.5 yards per play against Louisville. Klubnik had 228 yards passing...on 56 attempts.
14 points against South Carolina.
24 points against Texas

When they needed the offense to step up and play well, they fell flat. Them scoring 59 points against a bad NC State team or 40 against Stanford doesn't impress me.

I said if Leonard had his stats not if Klubnik was our QB. There is a difference.

We can't even get white WRs?

Damn fish.
