Glad Newspring had services today and did not cancel them because of the weather. I guess they knew he was coming.

hard to compare that far back, but names like rickey jones, clarke bynum, "jumping " joe ward were big time recruits. so was sharone wright. even rick whitt.
big, big time get for BB. he may well be the biggest "star" recruit we've ever gotten, but names like those above were comparable in recruiting pub.

James is a heck of a recruit.
P.S. It is a really douchey retort to say "wrong" to someone.

Michigan State. Top 25 player. He also could be the tipping point for a couple other 4 Star guys who are Clemson leans.

Not that it matters, but 247Sports now predicts Clemson

Over Duke. They had him over 80% chance to Duke two weeks ago.
https://247sports.com/Player/Josiah-James-45572919/
We can’t discount Tennessee though. He took his official visit there earlier this month and supposedly had a good visit.
Michigan State was eliminated earlier this month, so it’s berween us, Duke, and Tennessee.

Maybe he’ll help us close the deal with small forward Brown a 5 star who visited for the Furman game.

Clemson, Duke and Tennessee. Took official visits to Tenn and then Clemson recently. News above says he cancelled his Duke official visit and announced an upcoming commitment. Sounds like good news for us.

If he picks us over Duke , that's huge . Like never happened before huge . Also , he is the type of player that other players want to play beside . Brownell may have just turned a corner w/Tiger hoops .

Don't discount Slick Rick at Tennessee....

He went there a couple of weeks ago and supposedly enjoyed the visit. Could Rick Barnes slide another hard one in at Clemson?

He and the Brown kid from Lower Richland, another 5 star, are extremely tight. And we are in it on him as well

Rarely get a kid who coach K is interested in having on his ‘team’,
I’ll be his biggest fan.

Brown is not a consensus 5 star like James, but he is a concensus top 50 recruit on all the boards. We got like 5 crystal balls from the 247 site today for James. two which were from their Duke recruiting site. We now have 78 percent more than anyone else by far. We get James and Brown, this three man class will be a top 10 class on every site....
