Is Clemson getting ready to land a big one?

Clemson is hoping to lock up massive offensive tackle Kalon Davis of Chester (S.C.) High soon.

Davis, who already lists the Tigers as his leader, is planning to visit the school again on July 17, and could commit on that trip

That would be bad news for East Carolina, N.C. State and Wake Forest, who have already offered him scholarships, along with Kentucky, Mississippi State, Penn State, South Florida, Vanderbilt and Wisconsin.

Davis, who measures 6-foot-5 and 340 pounds, would be a huge commitment for the Tigers, who have landed one OL so far, Reid Webster of Etowah High in Woodstock, Ga.

If he's so great, why is he only getting offers from second-tier football schools?

You're obviously a UNCC 49ers football fan...

Yes, I made my pledge to the UNCC football campaign. (You don't think they'll try to make me pay, do you?)

I think by "big one", they were most likely referring to his size more than anything.

Why would anyone commit to a school with an interim head coach? Those recruits will regret not $igning with UNC-CH!

I hope you are being sarcastic because Dabo Swinney isn't an interim coach anymore he is the full time head coach.

I'm a Chester High Alum and it's great to hear that someone is going on to the next level and represent Chester. I'm also a Clemson fan and would love to watch him play for the Tigers.

LOL. Yes, where they can look forward to being placed on "medical hardship" to make room for Butch's new stars.
