I'm 35 I don't remember Clemson being elite besides the Dabo era. Maybe back in your day Clemson was royalty.

you implied you were in your late teens when Clemson was on top of the college football world?  That was 5 years ago.  So your math clearly had me assuming your were young  

You moving the goalpost.  I didn’t call them royalty.  But certainly a national program like the SEC schools. Clemson is top 20 all time in wins.  And if you erase Dabo and Kirby’s nattys….Clemson has a more recent natty than UGA.

Clemson plays in the weak ACC. Sure they were a big deal when they were winning the Natty. The thing is those other programs don't have to win a Natty to stay relevant.

 

I don't consider Clemson to be that iconic football powerhouse with rich tradition. When I think ACC I usually go to the Miami and Florida St. 

 

We just disagree on which schools have rich tradition. Maybe the older people view Clemson differently I can only speak for me.

 

I have seen numerous docs on the Miami and Florida St schools. Their tradition is far beyond a region. It's national.

Such a shame Texas/Georgia isn't in the 8pm slot. I feel like that should be the last game of the night. Instead they have the ACC game in that slot.

 

 

At the same time as the B1G game as well. I’d imagine ratings for Clemson/SMU will be far below Oregon/Penn St. 

 

ACC game should be entering the 4th quarter right now (225 pm EST).

Clemson has 21 ACC titles.  Which is the most in the ACC.   FSU 2nd.  FSU were the kings of the ACC under Bowden.   

Miami has 0 ACC titles.  Gamecocks got more ACC titles. 

No one thinks Miami when they think ACC.  Miami was the team of the Big East 

And no one gives a poo about Miami anymore.   They have had 2 seasons in recent history that were fools gold.  You know cares about Miami? Old people.  That remember a time long ago.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
