Dabo is gonna give this Iraq War vet a shot to walk on at clemson. Now i kinda feel like they will make room for him on the roster as a feel good media story, and i dont think its a bad thing. This guy has bled for this country and watched his friends die for it. All he wants to do is play some college football and Kudos to Dabo for giving him the shot.

He has earned and will earn everything he gets.  He’s worked hard for the spot, and I doubt if he wants a handout.  He is a talented, driven, hardworking, nice young man with the right attitude about football and life…...right up Dabo’s ally for any recruit.  I would venture a guess to say that no one on the team will work harder then Rodriguez.  Southernpigskin was one of the first to report on this story.

If you’re happy with good enough, then good enough is what you’ll be. Greatness requires the expectation of excellence.

Daniel is a great guy. I have had the pleasure of hanging out with him on multiple occasions. I certainly wish him all of the success in the world at Clemson.
