Are you starting a Socom clan or a COD clan?
Because, from a die hard SOCOMer, I think the chances of getting a clan started when the numbers for Confrontation continue to drop, is slim to none. The only people still on the game for the most part, are clan members, so pulling people away from clans already established is very unlikely, unless you are looking to assemble the best clan hoppers on the planet.
If you truly wish to start a clan, I don't think there will be many more opportunities until SOCOM 4 releases.
Or try looking for freeagents on FTB games, and hope they have PS3's and no loyalties.
