I'm so confused...but DeShaun does sound like a very good kid.

Young man is clearly conflicted between wanting to visit other schools and honoring his word to Morris (and Swinney).

As a recruit, I would always question why a school would be so against me visiting somewhere else...makes it seem like they're afraid I might find something better.

As a coach, no way would I want my future franchise QB spending a weekend being courted by the likes of Meyer, Saban and others on their home turf.

ESPN - Top-rated QB will soon feel pressure

5/17

GAINESVILLE, Ga. -- They paraded through here the past month like men in search of the answer to some great truth, certain that the key to its unlocking existed, yet visiting primarily out of obligation in the face of tough odds.

Coordinators Tom Herman of Ohio State, Mike Bobo and Todd Grantham of Georgia, Doug Nussmeier of Alabama and others came.

They came to see Deshaun Watson, ESPN's No. 1-rated dual-threat quarterback prospect in the Class of 2014, a 6-foot-3, 186-pound dynamo who won a state title last fall and has accumulated, in three seasons, more all-purpose yards and passing touchdowns than anyone ever to play high school football in Georgia.

He's a good student, a solid citizen, and a great classmate and teammate. He was the second QB invited to the Elite 11 finals this summer and was among the first round of invitees to the Under Armour All-America Game next winter.

Watson committed to Clemson 15 months ago. He's set to enroll next January. He doesn't appear likely to change his mind.

Give him 8 weeks into the college football season when OSU is sitting @ no. 2 (behind Bama.....lol) in the polls and the urge to visit OSU and see what they have to offer will be too great.

I know, the theory would have been better if I had OSU @ no. 1 but come on, who are we kidding? It's Ohio State and we play in the Big 10. We may have to win 25 in a row before we see the no. 1 spot in the polls again...lol

I think, based on the quotes in the article, that he's done visiting other schools for good now. He sounded contrite, as if somehow he had done something wrong - which, of course, he hasn't.

It's embarrassing that the Clemson coaches are making him feel that way. He's a young man making the most important decision of his life. He should have access to every bit of information possible regarding that decision without feeling guilty about it.

i agree with you on that...but he did go to visit Auburn...and if there is one school I would be worried about one of my recruits going to, then Auburn is on that list...I'm not saying they pay players, I'm just saying, It's Auburn

The first time a coach says "you have to gain our trust back," while going through the recruiting process, would be the last time we ever spoke.

Especially when a coach or 2 probably won't be there the entire time while deshaun is at Clemson...
