Definitely had more than one person tell me “taking the points” was the right call. I’m also convinced that Baker Mayfield would be working at Applebee’s or something right now if that game didn’t happen
Yeah, family already moved there. Won’t bother be a bit if somebody can step up and give Clemson a game in that conference.
By the way, this is the 2nd kid from this St. Francis school in Maryland, including Bailey from last year, and probably a third tomorrow in the LB Willis. Apparently, Pruitt went to one of their practices and told the coach there we need to be recruiting the hell out of the kids there. So, we have and bearing the fruits of this Baltimore area school which is loaded with talent (And we were in the mix for the Jarrett kid who went to LSU last year.).
Joe Osovet has ties to the area as well. Pruitt wants to plant a Tennessee flag in the area Kasim Hill, the walk on qb that transferred from Maryland is from there, I believe. Mordecai McDaniel, who eventually signed with UF, was committed to Tennessee from there too.
It's a ripe spot to pick. A good amount of talent and no real big time program to contend with you locally.
