He couldn't even throw a screen, had a lot to do with both injury and being way overrated.

Yes both he and Korn battled injuries the entire time they were at Clemson. Plus Roscoe Crosby lost his 3 best friends during his time at Clemson They were headed down to see him in Florida when they were killed in a fiery single car auto accident. And I believe at that time he was recovering from TJ surgery. That's alot for a 19 to 20 year old kid to deal. That's alot for anyone to have to deal with.
But when he was on the field he was an elite talent. He is getting his life together and needs the support and and prayers from his Clemson Tiger Family.
Congrats he received degree from Clemson in December 2016.
We fans on this or any other Clemson site need to build our players up and wish transfers and lost recruits well. That's what makes Clemson a special family. I have always said what comes around goes around.

^^^^MBT Does not watch football obviously. Crosby was possibly the best at separating from defenders and caught balls with almost no effort. Smooth as silk. It's sad to see his name even mentioned in this thread. The butt-hurt must be skrong in this one.

Is this a joke? Roscoe was amazing. Granted he didn't play 4 years, but when he played, he lived up to his "rating."

If you ever saw him play high school football you wouldn't think he was overrated. His arm was never the same after he injured his shoulder.
I've done a lot of photography at HS football games and I've seen a lot of great players. He was the best high school QB I have ever seen in person.

gunstock15 where did you play football and where did you develop you skill and knowledge for rating players talent level, skills and potential for success or failure????
Me I leave all that stuff up to Dabo and Co. And I sit in the stands because Dabo and his staff are much more knowledgeable about this stuff than me. They have done a fantastic job so far.
And as for Red Parker he was a pretty good coach to, he just never was given enough time to prove it at Clemson. He was turning the program around. And he recruited some great athletes to. Steve Fuller, Warren Ratchford, Dwight Clark, Joe Bostic, Tracy Perry and I could name many others. Charlie Pell's success was built with the recruits and foundation left by Red Parker.
If you are not a troll but a diehard true Orange Clemson fan you are not getting off to a good start.
Just some humble advice from a lifelong diehard dye in the wool "Orange" Clemson Fan!

Feb 22, 2017, 7:08 AM

either he and his staff had evaluation issues, coaching issues or both! I would add Javis Austin to this list and attribute it to bowden black balling him. I still think he would've been a good back...

Deshaun Watson by far.. ...

For real? Tyson Dye due to injury. Hated it too. Another would be Jay Jay McCollough.

Korie Rogers.

Gave up football before ever dressing out. He is still a student I believe.
