If Clark is that serious about academics and has already dropped Northwestern, I can't see him picking Clemson over UF.
Not sure about him contributing immediately. I see D Rob and Hawkins getting on the field the soonest, unless Clark can become a kick returner from day one. Agree on Fullwood. Huge upside, but might be a year or two away from being physically ready to make an impact. That's what you want when you sign six WRs, some guys contributing sooner, others taking longer but making huge contributions when they're physically and mentally ready to make their move. We need to redshirt more than half of them.

I think Clark could contribute early. He seems like a very intelligent guy, and I think he would start out as more of a situational threat (on reverses, jet sweeps, screens, etc...) with his set of skills. Pease said that one of Debose's biggest inconsistencies, has been his inability to grasp the timing of the offense. Patton did a good job at that, and I think that's why he was as valuable as he was over the first seven or eight games.
So, I like Clark's chances to get on the field as a freshman.

I think the poster added the last line. I'm not on twitter but it appears people end their tweets with the hash tag.

One thing that really stands out from Clark's video is that he looks like he's got a really long leg stride for a guy his size.
I know he's nothing like Julio Jones size wise, but when he's running, he reminds me a little of Jones, in that he doesn't really look like he's running as fast as he is. He really glides.

I notice a lot of time they have him lined up at X, obviously his future is at FL. Strangely enough some of his runs through the secondary look a lot like Vick in his prime, where you think he's contained but is just too fast and breaks out into the open.

That's great news. How does he look for OSU?
Too bad he didn't visit Columbus this weekend. Winter has finally arrived in the midwest, with a vengeance. I know I've said a play shouldn't decide where he wants to play because of the weather, but yesterday was one of those three or four days a year when it's just painful to be outside.

It seems as though Clemson was out once OSU had a nice chat about academics and life after football with him. Clemson has always been praised by recruits and parents for their academic presentation. Their approach seems to be that they have a great support staff and if you cant pass classes at Clemson you wont do well anywhere. For a kid like Clark that is the wrong approach. Dabo didnt even use his in home on Clark.
