Clemson has been active in its pursuit of Fairfield (CT) Prep DL Masengo Kabongo. Kabongo said he had been hearing from the Tigers' TE Coach Billy Napier and he even made a visit to Clemson back in February. However, when Kabongo named his three favorite schools, Clemson failed to make the cut. "Florida, Notre Dame, and Maryland are ahead a little bit right now," Kabongo said. He added that he plans to visit Florida later this month and should reach a decision after that trip. It will be his only visit this summer. "I'm working harder in the weight room this year. I really don't have any plans," Kabongo said. He visited Notre Dame and Maryland in the spring. Other notable teams to offer Kabongo include Southern Cal, Boston College, Syracuse, and NC State. He had 87 tackles last season, including 27 for a loss, and forced five fumbles.

and almost certainly won't. Maybe Masengo thinks he can play OLB. Dreams die hard.

2 of his top 3 teams wouldn't accept his offer, sounds like a publicity stunt to me.

He doesn't seem the type.

I think he's more of a dreamer. He was getting nibbles off the ND line, but that fish got away.

Shame he isn't top echelon, he has the second/third best name after Slaughter.

He had to run away high, so he wouldn't come home low....
Kabongo seems like a great kid. I think he ends up somewhere in the ACC and flourishes there.
He's very raw and can be built up into a future NFL performer. Remember, he hasn't been playing football all that long.
