Devonaire Clarington 247 update

[KevinCosio]

We need to stop recruiting this kid he has TOO MANY red flags we have Bowman Archibald & we got 2 potential TE's last year to go along with our stud TE Stan Dobbard I don't want he doesn't have the right attitude..

 

[JHallCanes]

Between his grades and his other influences I've never given this kid much thought. Going to Booker T may help but who knows

 

[Lingo]

Grown-*** adults freaking out that a 17 year old sounds stupid with the press let alone every day life. Sounds like most 17 year olds by definition. The ones that don't sound stupid are more of the exception not the rule. It's called youth. Relax.

I think he's 19, but I understand what you're saying.

He's 18.

His last comment isn't disparaging about Miami. It's Chad Thomas' attitude last year just more vocal. He don't care about where everyone else is heading.

Actually, he probably just has a good memory and is referencing our 08 class.

People would be loving that quote if recently there had been a bunch of high profile So. Florida targets committing to schools besides UM but he was still interested in Miami.

People who have seen him play have said that he is lazy and is a ball dropper.

Just on highlights, I like Mouton better.

Is it your job to say this in every thread when the board questions recruits?

 

[The Franchise]

Devonaire isn't very debonair.

 

[Tad Footeball]

Devon-airehead? Weird interview. Not holding my breath on this one as supposedly his transcripts are in more shambles than an unattended box of Krispy Kreme near Coach Kehoe.

It's my job to say what? Point out obvious inconsistencies? I mean am I out of line for saying that it's probably the grown *** adults who are fickle and Clarington doesn't actually have a brain injury as was suggested? Let me repeat that: A BRAIN INJURY because he had the nerve to not immediately commit to the juggernaut that is UM football under the tutelage of Al Golden?

The brain injury quote is not the quote you commented on. It was simply the inconsistency piece, which you have commented on in multiple threads. There is a consistency - most fans don't like negative or less than positive things said about their program. Coming from this recruit, noting his previous school, that school's handler/coach and his LSU interest, it really isn't a surprise or a stretch. I know that is hard to believe as it relates to Miami even for us fans of the juggernaut that is UM football under the tutelage of Al Golden.

I've made two posts about fans being inconsistent with regards to kids in this class so I guess technically, you're right, I have been mucking up "multiple" threads. I hereby apologize for spamming the board in an attempt to get people to think rationally.

I have heard the same, id take him just on his tangibles

 

[Calinative]

I say we still get his commitment knowing he likely doesnt clear that way we save face and it might help get some others

He was very impressive on defense against Flanagan in the spring game. Legitimate potential at defensive end.

I'm with you on thinking rationally. Seems like people here just can't be happy with positive momentum and I caught you in that. My apologies.

Think... Tyrone Wheatley...
