Clemson Implied as the 300k Offer Culprit - Rashan Gary
I saw this mentioned, but nothing about a direct implication that it was Clemson.
If its true that they're doing this, how many guys have gotten paid?? If its true I hope they drop the hammer on these guys. Pretty lame if they've cheated their way to this level of dominance.

Also pretty funny to read the Clemson-homer author's take on this.
If you're upset that I've reiterated a prior topic, I dont give a s**t :)
August 21st, 2019 at 3:38 PM ^
It's been discussed on here 300K times. oops. I mean 299,998 times already.
August 21st, 2019 at 3:40 PM ^
Yeah, but the OP doesn't give a shit about that!
August 21st, 2019 at 4:01 PM ^
Perhaps he wrote this whilst taking a shit?
August 21st, 2019 at 4:10 PM ^
Not too sure about that. He said he "I don't give a shit," not "I don't have a shit to give." If it was the latter, then you'd possibly be correct.
August 21st, 2019 at 6:28 PM ^
So the OP is hoarding her shits?
(FYI; OP must be female, as she is "Glen Masons Hot Wife.")
August 21st, 2019 at 5:58 PM ^
Who does he think he is? The Honey Badger??
August 21st, 2019 at 4:58 PM ^
Good think OP doesn’t give a ******* what you say. :):):):)
August 21st, 2019 at 3:40 PM ^
But it was $300K in supplements, so...
August 21st, 2019 at 3:44 PM ^
I heard it was lifetime free rolls at Red Lobster.
August 21st, 2019 at 3:57 PM ^
Deal
August 21st, 2019 at 6:44 PM ^
Hey, that IS a strong-was offer.
August 21st, 2019 at 9:03 PM ^
Forget the dinner rolls at RL, I want the cheese biscuits!!
August 21st, 2019 at 3:42 PM ^
The funniest part about this is, implied or not. Clemson was never named, until they named themselves.

People on twitter said Clemson made a huge offer on signing day, Feb. 3rd 2016.
August 21st, 2019 at 3:43 PM ^
I saw an article this week that said Gary confirmed it was an SEC team.
Which is interesting because Gary's mon ruled out Ole Miss earlier for some reason.

Did you actually just try to embed a ChatSports link?
I predict this will go unwell for you, friend.
YODERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRALERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTT
August 21st, 2019 at 4:50 PM ^
So you are upset that Gary's mom said it wasn't Ole Miss because you want it to be Clemson?
Because now they are saying they were offered money and it was an SEC team.
Why is everyone so pissed that it isn't Clemson? I guess I don't care but I dont get the heat on the source. It says exactly what they are now admitting. Is it the fact that it verifies her comments that makes you mad?

He joined 2 days ago. It takes a few days (or years) to learn all our written and unwritten rules.
August 21st, 2019 at 8:06 PM ^
I think people want it to be Clemson because it would explain their rise to elite status out of nowhere and it gives hope that if they were caught, they would come crashing back down like Ole Miss after a period of obvious cheating.
My guess.
August 21st, 2019 at 9:32 PM ^
their rise to elite status out of nowhere
What are you talking about? Clemson has only had two losing seasons since 2000. Eight out of Dabo's ten seasons at Clemson they've won more than 10 or more games a season (in fact he's won 11 or more games in 7/10 seasons). They were a fairly good team for 20 years and Dabo made them elite in a clearly incremental manner:

If Michigan were to win a championship this year, it would be much more "out of nowhere" than anything Clemson has done:

Harbs, is that you ?
August 21st, 2019 at 4:17 PM ^
Clemson is an ACC team with an SEC payroll. I can understand her mistake.
August 21st, 2019 at 5:21 PM ^
Uckfay Yoderay!
August 21st, 2019 at 3:45 PM ^
Dabo is slimy. Clemson is dirty. Water is wet.

And there's hamburger all over the highway in Mystic Connecticut.
And I know noted oldster Craig Ross gets the reference.
August 21st, 2019 at 3:47 PM ^
It is a little amusing to see this guy say "To make a claim like this, you should be able present facts and not just rely on unnamed sources" like people are out there handing out notarized receipts for booster payments
August 21st, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
We can always refer to exhibit A:
August 21st, 2019 at 4:54 PM ^
Who is that?
August 21st, 2019 at 3:55 PM ^
Exactly! What motivation could Gary (now in the NFL) have for saying this if it wasn't true? Gary is out of college. It doesn't help UM. UM and Clemson have not played each other in football in ages if ever, and they don't have a lot of overlap in recruiting.
My only hope is that if Bacon/Gary were lying, it was in an effort to troll Clemson by putting the market price out there for top talent. Bryan Bresee (247 #1 2020 Clemson commit) is saying right now, "$300K?!?! I'm only getting $150K, WTF?"
August 21st, 2019 at 3:57 PM ^
Can he take that to arbitration?
August 21st, 2019 at 4:12 PM ^
I had to look it up--Michigan has never played Clemson.
Funny bit of trivia: the only B1G team to have ever beaten Clemson was Minnesota in 1985. Clemson has won the other four times they've played B1G teams (Ohio State three times and Illinois once).
August 21st, 2019 at 4:14 PM ^
Yeah. Ohio State choked when they played Clemson.
August 21st, 2019 at 4:16 PM ^
and woody slugged Charlie Bauman, leading to the end of Hayes' Days.

Hayes dayes?

I want my $300k in a Dave and Busters gift card.

For those of you who just quoted Pitch Perfect 2 on mgoblog .... I salute you.
August 21st, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
This aggression against Bacon in that article will not stand.
Bacon did not insinuate that it was Clemson. Webb did. (I think I'm remembering this correctly.)
Also, this nonsense in that hot garbage "article" that Bacon suddenly drummed this up when Gary's recruitment was sooooo long ago...he's reporting this from Gary directly. On the record. It's not like he's quoting "sources."
August 21st, 2019 at 4:03 PM ^
Pretty sure Hackett explicitly said that Gary turned down benefits from Clemson on the day Gary signed his LOI. So that narrows it down to, uh, Clemson.
August 21st, 2019 at 4:13 PM ^
Exactly this. Don't know why anyone is acting like this is news.
August 21st, 2019 at 4:40 PM ^
Right. The way I recall, Gary was waivering between the two. MgoFaithful were nervous with rumors he was about to commit to Clemson and we would finish in 2nd place again. Then out of nowhere, Clemson was out of the picture. Rashan was solid UofM and there were rumors Clemson did some things that angered Rashan's mother. After a few days/weeks passed the rumors surfaced that there was a school who offered Rasahan money, and given the timing, it wasn't hard to put 2 and 2 together. Then Hackett came out during the LOI event and straight out said there was a school who was offering $ to Gary. I don't know if Hackett explicitly said Clemson, but this was all known years ago.
The only new info Bacon brought to light was the exact dollar amount. I don't recall seeing that prior to Bacon, and the amount is considerably larger than we've been told bagmen typically offer.
August 21st, 2019 at 4:42 PM ^
This link seems to confirm Hackett did not name Clemson as the culprit, but I know MgoFaithful quickly felt i was Clemson.
https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/statement-hackett-believes-gary-was-offered-incentives
August 21st, 2019 at 5:24 PM ^
Bacon said that Gary told him about it with the express promise that he would not reveal the offeror.
August 21st, 2019 at 7:45 PM ^
Why would Gary want to protect them?
August 21st, 2019 at 8:52 PM ^
Because a lot of high school players come out of poverty and it would hurt future players' chances to capitalize on their skills ?
August 21st, 2019 at 10:17 PM ^
So if Gary and his mother are being silent to protect future impoverished players, why bring up the subject at all or give rumors of such credibility?
August 22nd, 2019 at 11:16 AM ^
I'd think he'd rather blow up the system so everyone could get paid out in the open.
August 21st, 2019 at 3:51 PM ^
Wait .....why does saying "it's not OSU" imply Clemson?
August 21st, 2019 at 4:07 PM ^
Because late in his recruitment it was down to M, THE™, and Clemson.
He had been a heavy Michigan lean (or even committed? I can't remember) but there was a sudden push at the last minute to one of the other two, likely a big cash offer, imho.
