Clemson DT transfer Josh Belk

[OrangenSC]

What's out there in the media is overblown at this point.

He's visiting Tennessee and the staff will decide from there if he's a take. Brining him in for a visit is smart..

5-star recruit at a position where we have a desperate need. Not easy to find.

Yeah, somehow I think our coaches are in a much better position to judge if he's a take or a pass than we message board posters.

Trust this staff. the end.

Pppfffftttt. Its common knowledge that VN knows infinitely more about football than anyone on the coachng staff

No you shouldn't!!!

I don't trust Pruitt thus far on player evaluation. He let some good players who were committed last year walk. And thus far I'm not impressed by the guys he's prioritized.

He's a better coach than Butch Jones but we'll have to wait and see what is when it comes to talent evaluation.

Didn't like being buried on the depth chart at Clemson.

Kirby processing someone else? Dawgs still one over the 85.

Here we go again.

 

[Montrell Hardy]

Seeing a lot of UT and UGA talk. Who knows if either will be interested. Leaving one place I get, but 2 in 2 years is definitely odd. I'm sure we'd pass if we weren't desperate for quality DLineman, but we are.

Clemson site says he is quitting football permanently. He suffered a vertebrae injury and wants to do something besides football.

The guy balloned to like 380lbs, and blood pressure was so high they couldn't clear him to practice. Doubt any SEC coach would take his call

If that's true, get this kid to an endocrinologist and cardiologist ASAP. Best of luck to moving forward to him, but that's a hard pass if so.

 

[VolForLife83]

He was a 5 star on 247 and was an EE this spring. Doubt Dabo thinks he sucks.

5* bust. We know them all too well

I'm not sure he was a bust. The kid says himself he is retiring due to injuries.



"I fractured a vertebrae and decided to choose another path in life. One that won't potentially mess me up in the long run with injuries and all. Been praying and this is what God has led me to."

Yep. Very sad for the kid. So much talent. This is a critical blow to SC. This would be like soloman not getting the waiver

No. Because he would still be playing after a season.
