SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Raekwon McMillan and Jalyn Holmes never intended for the conversation to go the way it did.
Yet there they were, a pair of highly-coveted uncommitted high school football prospects, sitting by themselves inside the Clemson practice facility in the summer of 2013 talking about anything and everything that comes with major college football recruiting.
Finally, after a bit of back-and-forth discussion, it hit both of them.
“We were talking, man, and we were talking about the things that weighed out and what was better and what was not,” McMillan recalled Wednesday.
