He seems like the type of kid who can play slot receiver and be a return man. Nothing amazing, but he could be a solid contributor for us. Nice to finally at least have 1 2018 commit. He is also Top 100 in Florida.

Hopefully. He brought his grades up enough to go back to his normal school.

I really hope he makes it in. I think he could be a game changer day one with his speed and power. Even if it is just special teams, we need guys who can take it the distance.

He's gotta get is ACT score up - how much up, I don't know. Standardized tests can be a real issue for some. Hopefully he's practicing these types of tests as that really does help in the long run. I never studied for them back in my day
ldman: (I didn't even know you could study for a standardized test), but I was always pretty good about eliminating the wrong answers and choosing the right ones.

Some news on this out of Clemson:
http://www.wyff4.com/article/clemsons-swinney-says-ol-fruhmorgen-to-transfer/8593494
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) —
Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said that one-time starting offensive lineman Jake Fruhmorgen is leaving the program.
Fruhmorgen, a 6-foot-5, 290 pound sophomore from Tampa, Florida, started the first eight games at right tackle for the national champion Tigers. However, he left the team after its win at Florida State in late October and did not return. Swinney had said Fruhmorgen was dealing with personal issues.
Swinney said in a text message Thursday that Fruhmorgen told him his intentions to leave.
Fruhmorgen was one of Clemson's top recruits before the 2015 and, combined with starting left tackle, was supposed to be a building block for the offensive line. Sean Pollard took Fruhmorgen's spot and started Monday night when the Tigers defeated No. 1 Alabama 35-31 to win a national title.
