QB is a HUGE part of team success but it's not everything. Especially when your D is non-existent. As a UNC/Deion fan you should be extremely well versed in this concept.

It's the ACC who needs defense?

 

I don't know how you know me and not know that I think the ACC is a trash conference. They will get exposed in the playoffs per usual.

 

Cmon guys let's be real with ourselves.

Sure, and it’s more fair to say now as it’s almost halftime than after one quarter when you said it, but you also insinuated it was because he was getting shutdown, which he’s not.

The team is a mess, we’ve had one drive this quarter over 3 plays, it’s not because he’s getting locked down, we just can’t even get him targets with the OL playing like Swiss cheese right now.

What did I tell you earlier?

 

This was going to be a beat down. I know your team bro you never had a chance to win this game. I was just looking forward to the Tmac and Hunter matchup.

 

It's also funny the Hunter has more impact at WR in this game than Tmac so far. But I'm a humble guy I want brag about that.

Was that a response to what I actually said or just a pre-planned rant because... uh, what??? LOL

It might not be. It's just a new experience for them not being head and shoulders the best team in the conference year in and year out.

With NIL, the portal, and Dabo's refusal to use them much, if any, it's only a matter of time until another school willing to pay more surpasses Clemson. Plus, with the continued lack of competing for a national title, the more the calls for his job will increase.

2 for 17 vs 2 for 15, but sure, that's having more of an impact... I guess

Taking a victory lap over T-Mac not having a big game with how our OL and QB have played is basically the equivalent of doing the same thing for any of our WRs the first two games of our season this year with how Bryce was playing.

Any Clemson fan calling for Dabo's job is completely batshit insane or is too young to remember Clemson football pre-Dabo.

Go read his posts today (and every week) - every post is anti-Miami.

Clemson might be the best team in the ACC - it'll be decided on the field - but to run down the entire conference like this is moronic. 

I’m not anti Miami.  I’ve literally been wishing for the return of FSU, Miami, or someone for years to help legitimize the ACC.

I pick Miami to lose every week for the same reason I do Colorado each week.  To annoy WhoaCam.  They aren’t my honest picks lol.  Same for UofSC,   I want the Gamecocks to be good too.  I just don’t want them to beat Clemson. 

I’ve done nothing really but praise Ward.  In the last 24 hours I’ve called him great countless times.  I have questioned how he I plays and how that translates to the next level when that comes up.   But yeah, Miami is a bad football that happens to have one of the best QBs in the country.   It’s not basketball.  Football is the ultimate team sport.  You could have thrown college Trevor Lawrence on a bad football team and it wouldn’t be a good football team.  They would just have a good college QB.

It’s largely talk coming from opposing fans and media.  Sure there might be a tiny segment of the fanbase that complains but they exist everywhere.

Still a place for what Clemson is selling and that continues to show.  And you got to think some type of course correction is coming to the NIL/portal.   

End of the day, Dabo is largely right.  For a team like Clemson, most of the portal is just switching out bodies, not better bodies.  And Dabo is grooming his depth and young guys for Clemson. 

the last 3 Clemson years, would be great years for basically the entire ACC.  Same for many SEC and BIG10 school.  The demise of Clemson is greatly exaggerated because people are tired of Dabo.  The only real difference is we no longer have arguably the best QB in college.  And we still remain good because Dabo builds good teams.

    • Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure. 
    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
