Posted this on another site in response to questions about these specific guys and I thought I'd share it here as well.
QB Anthony Boone: Very early there, tough to tell if he'll get major interest just yet. We're interested and would like to evaluate more. We're in his very early lead group, but I think he grew up liking the dark side.
QB Chas Dodd: As a Byrnes player, you better believe that Clemson is all over him. They'll know him backwards and forwards. Size could be a limiting factor for him though and may not get an offer, but he is a talented player that I think will get Div 1 interest.
RB Marcus Lattimore: Honestly, I have no idea where he's going to go and I don't think he does either. I do feel that Clemson is no longer in the lead group with him, and we're just on the outside. We could get back in it, but we'll just have to see...
RB Mustafa Greene: Very good shape there and I would peg Clemson as the early leader.
RB James C. White: Clemson is strong there and should be in it until he makes a decision...the only problem is that he'll be a hot commodity and pulling a star from the Big 3 in Florida is always a tough proposition. However, Clemson was on him first and has stepped out with an offer first.
OT Robert Crisp: May be the best OL prospect (not just OT) in the nation next year and will have offers from EVERYbody. However, we really impressed him at the camp and has put at the top. We are in better position than I would have expected at this early stage.
DE Corey Miller: Clemson is in VERY strong shape and I wouldn't think an early verbal is out of the question.
DE/DT Brandon Willis: Ditto...if one falls, the other should be close behind.
DE Dexter Morant: Slight Clemson lean. I think he'll likely end up at Clemson at this very premature stage, but he's not as strong to Clemson as the 2 above.
DE Sydney Sarimento: Unsure if he'll garner an offer or not...he's definitely got the frame and with a strong junior year, he'll get some attention. Having Goodman on our side there certainly doesn't hurt any.
DT Todd Chandler: I don't see this one leaving the state, maybe even the city. Miami Northwestern is good to Miami and Shannon has done a good job of keeping the talent home...he's likely Miami or Florida if they want him.
DT Jeffrey Whitaker: Clemson is in his top 2 with UGA, but I think he'll be an early commit to the Dawgs.
DT AJ Cann: Unless he blows up, I don't think Clemson will offer. He's a solid Div 1 prospect, but I think Clemson can do better.
LB/DE Prince Shembo: Lean to Clemson. I expect us to get involved with him sooner rather than later and we will be the team to beat.
S Alec Ogletree: UGA and Clemson are 1 and 2, but Georgia is one of the toughest states to get someone out of that the Dawgs like. I'd put UGA as his leader.
S/ATH DeAndre Hopkins: Strong Clemson lean and an early commit is not out of the picture. May play basketball as well, but football is his first love.
