Silver Bluff defensive back Cordrea Tankersley has been hot, showing he probably deserves to be upgraded by the scouting services. Rivals.com posted about Tankersley on Wednesday "When we saw Tankersley play defensive back last spring, he was, to put it nicely, a bit raw. His backpedal was off and at times he seemed lost as he learned how to play in the secondary. Today, he's much more sharp. His footwork on the backpedal is very good, as are his hips and lateral movement. He breaks on the ball well and has very good closing speed. He probably could be a little more aggressive when making a play on the ball, though."
Tankersley is one of seven Clemson commitments headed to Dallas Cowboys Stadium joining DE Martin Aiken, DE Shaquille Lawson, OLB Terry Burrell, OT Javarius Leamon, S Ronald Geohaghan Jr., and Athlete J.J. McCullough.
"Tankersley is fast and has shown great improvement in his overall game, "said Offense-Defense Director of Player Personnel Josh Buchanan, "He’s become a guy who many perceived as a reach at the time I selected him but has shown he is more than worthy of competing with the best of the best in America and will be a playmaker for Clemson."
The second player has become no stranger to the headlines as Gaffney’s Quinshad Davis, a four-star wide receiver, has been very impressive at the practices. Rivals.com said about Davis "Davis continued his outstanding week by making catch after catch in both the morning and afternoon sessions. Because of his size (6-3, 180), he has been a difficult matchup for South Carolina corners, who can't get good position against him. Davis hasn't blown anyone away with his speed, but he's quick out of his breaks and arguably has been one of the two most sure-handed receivers on hand." Davis was named the Gatorade Player of the Year in South Carolina and has yet to commit with Clemson, NC State, and Wake Forest among the most interested.
