oh, i agree. i read that back and it sounds like i am conceding him to uf. not at all because i think we can land him.

It'll all hinges on getting him on campus either this Spring or Summer. If Fall rolls around and he hasn't been on campus you can forget it.

We have Clowney. Clowney's his "hero." It's our Ace in the hole...

Well then let's get Clowney to give him a pair of autographed gloves to seal the deal.

honest question. Would that be a violation?

Same goes for Deke.

[AtlGAMECOCK]

i really think us losing Lawing wont be a big deal like most think yes we whave had a good dline with him but I really think it underperformed at the dt spots I thik Deke will do better and our dline will be dominate like it should be .


Hand and Deke have a relationship already so that will help us a lot

The UF staff also knew how loaded SC is for 2014. I have a feeling people are going to start hating Lawing pretty soon.

I dont think it will have an impact

Not a recruiting expert, but I agree with this. That said, I have read that he plans to get to campus before the fall, possibly more than once. I'm guessing sometime this summer and the showcase, then hopefully an OV after that.

Hopefully he sticks to it.

VT is still the favorite to land him.

Good read on Hand modeling his game after Clowney

[sc455]

if he respects clowney so much i just dont see why he wouldnt want to be able to see him work on a daily basis. if he is on the team he gets clowney live and in color. he has a question, ask clowney, he wants to see how he practices, watch clowney. bottom line is that he can learn much more by being here on campus.

I wonder if it's possible to somehow get him on campus for the Spring Game.

Hand is a 2014 recruit so it is likely that JC will no longer be on campus when Hands goes off to college.

Clowney will be in the NFL during Hand's freshman year.

Granted, Clowney will likely visit practices from time to time...but it wont be an everyday thing.

Clowney will be gone to the NFL before they would get a chance to play with each other.

On the plus side, we pitch to him as "Come in and fill Clowney's spot. Both on the team and as the #1 NFL draft pick. We got him there, we can get you there... "
