Kanak’s recruiting was very classy by both him and Venables.


Dec 21, 2021, 5:34 PM

Clemson did not want any more bad press from multiple decommits and Kanak knew that he wanted to be coached by Venables.

Venables made a vow to not recruit any of Clemson’s commits, so Kanak just quietly enrolled. Dabo knew all of this. Classy move by all parties involved.

Dabo was asked at his recruiting wrap up if he expected any more people to sign and he said no.

Good observations and deductions

I agree on this situation. Coach V can’t help it if the kid wants to follow him to Oklahoma. Very mature move by all parties involved.

My problem with this is Dabo goes over the meaning of commitment with the recruit before they make that decision. When Kanek committed Clemson honored it’s word and didn’t recruit his position . Would like to say good luck to the kid but truly believe karma has a way of catching up to people. I have never and will never root for OU unless they play USUCK so as much as it pains me I will not hope for success for BV as OU head coach but will pray for him to have a wonderful life off the field.

Why not just publicly state your reason for signing with Clemson was to play for Venables? That is perfectly understandable.

I’m okay with your approach, or to ‘frame it’ as you have, but the final result is the same.

Whatever choice(s) you make makes you. Choose wisely.

Kanak is gone. He chose Okla. and BV. Let's move on.

Dabo and Brent knew his intentions and neither wanted it public.


Dec 21, 2021, 7:00 PM [ in reply to Re: Kanak’s recruiting was very classy by both him and Venables. ]

Dabo didn’t want the negative pub due to losing all the zIMG guys.

Brent didn’t want the perception of stealing a recruit.


Everyone was aware. Nobody found out via a message board.

Disagree. Is it better to let people know your intentions or for them to find out on a random message board?

Kanak told Dabo. That’s why Dabo said he didn’t expect more


Dec 21, 2021, 6:58 PM [ in reply to Re: Kanak’s recruiting was very classy by both him and Venables. ]

signees.

Dabo didn’t want it public due to all the negativity from the IMG guys.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I agree. Handled about as well as it could have been.

I would not want to coerce a young man to come here when his heart qas somewhere else.
