Do we have a chance at 5* A.J. Terrell
- Thread starter cockofthegoat
- Start date
He is the reason Clemson backed off of J Williams
AJ Terrell is rated 5* due to measureables...He doesn't play like a 5*...The taters will have to really coach him up...But everything i hear says he is Clemons bound
I want every kid to go where they want. If it's USC if its clemson or however
He was a 4 star that got bumped. Players get bumped and dropped all the time and no player gets ranked in the top 10 just for measurables. He hasn't played any games just like our guys we have committed haven't. So are you saying Greene who is going to get bumped to a 4 star shouldn't get bumped because he hasn't played a game?
It sucks they are getting the nations best CB but it's benefiting us because they stopped recruiting a very good Cb that we will now get because of it.
Good point. For that matter why choose Clemson-considering only 7% of the student body is African American?
So USC is a better choice because it's 10% vs 7% African American (and then Florida is totally out because it is 6%)? The question is, really, why go to a questionable situation with a potential short-term coach when you can go to a consistent winner? If USC starts winning again, it will make sense for a 5* like him to consider them.
unlike other teachers, I always told the kids "I know almost everyone here tells you to go to Clemson and not South Carolina. My advice to you is to visit South Carolina and other schools that offer areas of study you like. Then make an informed decision, not one that the locals are pressuring you to make. Make the choice that best works for you but visit other schools. I'm not selfish I care about you"
10% of 35k in Columbia is light years ahead of 7% of 19k in a small country town in upstate SC. That's a fact. And Muschsmp is NOT s short term coach. Obviously if he chooses Clemson they paid more. Just saying. I hope we pony up.
Hilarious. Clemson in the same sentence as MIT and Stanford. I wonder if they have animal husbandry courses in the ivy league and loads of fat rednecks in orange overalls roaming around on game day.
Doubt animal husbandry at Cornell means the same as it does at the Pickens County farm.
He went to camps and then outperformed the best in the nation. Everyone saw this. That's the big reason for the ranking. Not that he's big. If that's the case then JW would be a 2* because of his height. But yet I want him and he's a 4* because of his SKILLS. Give it up please.
Jamyest really played well at the Opening. My guess is that AJ has 5-6 inches on him, but not the cover skillls
Alright, you're the Cornell of South Carolina!
The point stands: Clemson is a mediocre school that ranks around 400-500 in the Academic Ranking of World Universities should never be mentioned in the same sentence as MIT (#3), Stanford (#2), Cal Tech (#7) or Cornell (#11).
Jameyst would absolutely be a 5* if he was 5'10 or 5'11. but everything i read says 5'9 and that might be being gracious. unfortunately i would rather have Terrell simply for the height. Jamyest could have all the positioning skills in the world but put him up consistently against guys like Mike Williams, Tee Higgins, Bryan Edwards, Terry Googer, or Or'tre Smith and he is going to struggle
If he doesn't go Clemson I will be truly shocked based on his answers on his school choice and the whole Blabo Family pitch he seemed to be regurgitating and how many times he has been to Clemson and the people from his immediate family he has taken. But never say never, right?
Gotta be the miniature golf course or movie theater that sways him to Clemson. Old Dabo created a mini Frankie's Fun Park for those Tater football players. Man definitely knows how to impress those 18 year olds with all his gimmickry. When it comes to DB's, Carolina has put just as many if not more in the NFL.
3 of our 4 starting DBs from last year were drafted. The 4th will be drafted this year.
I'd like to see how many players from each team still held a contract after 5 seasons in the nfl. That's a real stat that I would push on athletes.
Have you seen him play? I live in ATL, and have seen him play maybe 10 (or so) times...he DOES play like a 5-star. If we could get him, you'd be very happy.
Y'all boys get too worked up over this stuff. Our coaches are out there pitching better by far than we've ever been represented before. We have a more professional recruiting system than we've ever had. We're going to have great personnel in a couple of years. We're operating from behind. Y'all boys need to just go with the flow a little bit.

I heard he had Rivals make a video with him last week for his commitment. Clemson bound.
Yes i would be...But it wouldn't change the fact that the guru's evaluated his tape and originally tabbed him a 3*..He might prove to be Dion Sanders..But he was originally a 3* until the camps
Turns out the underwear Olympics that are referred to as camps (and you know... the NFL Combine really) are useful when measuring potential which is all the star ratings are
I don't know that he was ever a 3-star, but I do know that, as his talents became more obvious, his perceived value skyrocketed.
5.9 vs. 6.1. High 4 vs. 5. Coaching will be a factor. For argument's sake, say that Williams gets the better, more NFL "familiar" DB coach? 6.1 /5.9 difference disappears.
Point being there is a lot of variables going forward. Injuries(hammies), attitude, level of aggressiveness, brain,etc. Terrell to C.U. and Williams to us. Both will be recruited endlessly until sighning day. Friday just means hand wringing, regardless of who goes where.

No but the other site has Jamyest ranked higher and them both 4 stars, take that for what it's worth.
You asked if Ivy League schools taught animal husbandry. I told you to check out Cornell. Simple, simple.
Ortre Williams' mom is a graduate and former athlete. Haven't heard the same for Jamyest.
I think it means the same thing at any ag school-you do know Cornell and UC are the models for that?
