LOL. 68-2 as a starting quarterback in high school and college. Is that good?

Clemson’s latest graduating class went 9-2 against SEC opponents in their careers. 7-0 against teams not named Alabama. Defeated the SEC West Champ 3-straight years. Won two NATIONAL titles (beat SEC champ to win both). But can they compete? 😂 #ALLIN

By this logic Alabama has to beat LSU. If they don’t they’d possibly finish the regular season with one win over a team that will finish ranked (Auburn). Or are things like that only a problem for Clemson?
As we sit here today, Clemson has not beaten an opponent over .500. The combined winning percentages are 15-21. So yes, if Clemson loses, that will be a problem.

Clemson means something different to us all. My mom was born there. It’s where I met some of my best friends.
It’s looked down upon by outsiders-always has & likely always will.
Today, Little ‘ol Clemson can achieve something only three schools ever have achieved. Go Tigers

Duke shot 3 more free throws in the 2nd half than their opponent did in the entire game… in a game decided by one point.

Last night I saw Clemson alums, fans, students, future students, etc. pack Death Valley. I saw student-athletes play their hearts out for those people & each other. At the end Tiger Rag played as Clemson won for the 31st-straight time at home. Hats off to all involved.

Without taking time to research it, I’m going out on a limb to say this is the first time in 150 years of college football the first TD’s of the season on the #1 & #2 teams in America were scored by players from the same high school. Pretty cool. @ESPNStatsInfo

Always fun in these tournaments to ask teams where they’re from:
Player this morning-“Coach, I’m from a small town called Seneca,SC. Probably haven’t heard of it.”
😎 Yes, sir. I have heard of it 🤣. Do you pull for the Tigers?
“Since birth.”

Met a coach today. Talked about camps, etc. & says, “you may not know but the best camps were run by Bill Wilhelm at Clemson. Had to walk up hills, carry your stuff. It was hot & miserable, but perfect. I went every year.” I just smiled & let him know I walked those hills too!

Maybe I’m the wrong one to weigh in, but coaches know… coaches know authenticity and they know what’s not authenticity. Ask 100 HS coaches if they’d want their players to play for Dabo Swinney… national media wouldn’t like the answers.
"Just so thankful for his friendship."
