I don't know you.

When someone says Tepper is going out of his way to get two people from SC that's what they mean. If you meant "Tepper is going out of his way to get two people who went to school at Clemson" then say that poo. Makes much more sense the second way.

Context clues my friend it's literally their only connection to SC and each other.

My point is both are especially famous in the Carolinas. I was in Asheville two years ago and someone was rocking a Watson Clemson jersey well after the fact. I can only imagine how popular him and Trevor are in South Carolina. Tepper wants to move the stadium from one of the most popping places in the state to the back of the Carowinds parking lot just to get more money out of SC. There's no doubt in my mind that it's factoring into his push.

Will someone make the Jaguars an offer they can't refuse?

The most intriguing potential suitor for 2021 is the Panthers. Carolina holds the eighth overall pick. If they package that pick with several other selections in an effort to keep Lawrence in close to Clemson, will that be enough to get the Jaguars to pull the trigger?

No, I don't buy that the Panthers will do this. It's pure speculation, but so was Newton's "bold prediction" and people went apesh-t over that.

What we'd have to give up just to get to number two or number three would probably make me cringe. Can't imagine what it would take to get to number one.

All Lawrence has to do is say...I don’t wanna play for Ajax...but I will for the Panthers!!!

Trevor Lawrence has the better floor, ceiling, basement and yard than Wilson.  Talk to me about Wilson vs Fields who I think he also loses the argument to as well.

We know, man. You're a huge Clemson fan. We get it. It's okay, but you really should stop talking about these things in absolutes. There are no absolutes in the draft. There are busts and steals every year.

I'm just not sold on Lawrence being this super prospect. Yeah, he checks all the boxes but the vast majority of the time he's ever taken a field his team was head and shoulders better than the competition.

Yeah similar to Mac Jones, but with a stronger arm.

Nah, he has a LOT better physical tools than Jones. He has every physical tool you're looking for, he just doesn't wow in any particular area physically. The biggest question mark on Lawrence is how is he going to look when his team isn't head and shoulders better than the competition, but that's a question about every QB coming out of a powerhouse program.

? A context clue is a hint found within a sentence, paragraph, or passage that a reader can use to understand the meanings of new or unfamiliar words most typically from books. 
Like: She was the cynosure of all eyes for the rest of the evening.  cynosure meaning the focus of attention
 

So your context here would be for from which has many definitions.
 

preposition: from
  1. indicating the point in space at which a journey, motion, or action starts.
    "she began to walk away from him"
    • indicating the distance between a particular place and another place used as a point of reference.
      "the ambush occurred 50 yards from a checkpoint"
  2. indicating the point in time at which a particular process, event, or activity starts.
    "the show will run from 10 to 2"
  3. indicating the source or provenance of someone or something.
    "I'm from Hartford"
    indicating the date at which something was created.
    "a document dating from the thirteenth century"
  4. indicating the starting point of a specified range on a scale.
    "men who ranged in age from seventeen to eighty-four"
    • indicating one extreme in a range of conceptual variations.
      "anything from geography to literature"
  5. indicating the point at which an observer is placed.
    "you can see the island from here"
  6. indicating the raw material out of which something is manufactured.
    "a varnish made from copal"
  7. indicating separation or removal.
    "the party was ousted from power after sixteen years"
  8. indicating prevention.
    "the story of how he was saved from death"
  9. indicating a cause.
    "a child suffering from asthma"
  10. indicating a source of knowledge or the basis for one's judgment.
    "information obtained from papers, books, and presentations"
  11. indicating a distinction.
    "the courts view him in a different light from that of a manual worker"
     
So gonna go with 3 as I did. Other than that your sentence has nothing to do with college or being famous or getting famous at, etc.

I don't believe it either, but there's the Urban Meyer connection to Fields and the fact that he's kind of a wild card at the NFL level.

I wouldn't say zero chance, but probably less than a fraction of 1%.

I have heard, weeks ago now, that Meyer is enamored with Lawrence. Any other scenario is an exercise in fantastic imagination.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
