Wake Forest’s 2016 Season is Legitimizing Dave Clawson’s Recruiting Pitch

The Wake Forest football team now has five wins halfway through the 2016 season, which is just one shy of the number of wins the program had over the previous two seasons combined. That’s critically important because it legitimizes the Wake Forest coaching staff’s recruiting pitch to prospects.

Ever since Dave Clawson and his coaching staff have been at Wake Forest, we’ve heard of “#theaWAKEning.” It’s a fitting hashtag that has grown to be popular on social media, and truly represents what Clawson and his staff are trying to accomplish. Wake Forest had a very good run under former head coach Jim Grobe.
