Is Robert Nkemdiche The Next Jadeveon Clowney?

The nation’s top recruit Robert Nkemdiche has arrived at Ole Miss with expectations to be the next can’t miss defensive star comparable to Gamecocks’ stud Jadaveon Clowney. While the two play the same position, can Nkemdiche live up to the hype? Ole Miss teammate linebacker Mike Marry is sold. 

 From Alabama.com :

Watching him in high school, people compared him to (South Carolina All-American) Jadeveon Clowney,” Marry said. “In a couple of years, people are going to compare themselves to Nkemdiche.”

While Nkemdiche has impressed his coaches and teammates thus far, he will need to have a Clowney-like freshman season if he hopes to help Ole Miss overcome another disappointing season.
