It is too late to worry about that....
The Clemson operation has plausible deniability for a few years now with last year's NC. They basically played russian roulette along with Ole Miss and won because they won before getting caught.
Time was a few years ago when Ole Miss and Clemson were the two outliers in those recruiting rankings. Everyone in Tampa\Jacksonville were going WTF when Ole Miss and Clemson kept showing up so high in the recruiting rankings coming off back to back 7-6 seasons, playing in the ACC and 'stealing' kids from south Florida like Spiller, Watkins, etc from programs competing every year for national championships.
I mean let's be honest....those people asked a pretty good question which Clemson fans don't like to think about or answer....why in the hell would numerous kids from south Florida head north but bypass very, very successful national programs like UF, FSU, Auburn, Alabama, UGA to attend a school in the backwaters of upstate SC playing in, at the time, a horrid ACC which wasn't even on TV in Florida? Every single one of those schools had things which Clemson claims that they offer to these kids but were actually talked about nationally and were constantly on TV playing in yearly historic college games. But kids passed all those schools for the lure of a 10K town which is boring as shit except for 3 weekends a year and legendary matchups with Wake Forest and a yearly beatdown at the hands of FSU. It defies logic.
Hell even today with the NC and their ranking Clemson fans are mad as hell that nobody is talking about them like they are Oklahoma, Alabama, UGA....well the answer is that nobody gives a shit about Clemson and talking about them on national shows drives the audiences away to watching Dancing with the Stars...
Clemson did what they did the same way that Ole MIss 'stole' kids away from UGA, Alabama, Oklahoma, UT, all the Texas schools to a small marginally successful small village in the backwoods of Mississippi. Want a clear indication....look at the who was #2 on the Robert Nkemdiche recruiting list and the LaquonTreadwell lottery....WCCP was pissed that that Ole Miss outbid Clemson...I mean, that those two players chose Ole Miss over Blessed Taterville.
In Clemson's case, it is the south Florida hotel group.....they "funneled" lots of talent to Clemson along with mothers and girlfriends.
