Cards Fan Here, Do you Fellas want Maryland Back?

After having my chops busted by you crazy guys, I have a question.
In hindsight, would you prefer to have kept Maryland? I hear that tailgating and the fan interaction at Byrd Stadium was awesome. I also understand that the Terp's commitment to football was off the charts. So, do you guys regret it? You know they just beat an awesome Texas recently, right?
Serious discussion always welcome, but I'm prepared to be flamed and totally beaten by you ruffians.

Did they play loud music there at Byrd? Does everyone act like they're at a Miley Cyrus concert?

Is that too much to ask?
No, we don't want Merryland back. But that's like saying, "Lewisville is better than Wake Forest at stuff, and Lexington is a better location for football than Charlottesville."
Come on.

I went to Maryland twice
Sep 12, 2017, 11:09 AM

Both times they had the absolute worst police officers, parking attendants, and fans.
That place is garbage. My uncle who was a Clemson police officer at the time got threatened to be arrested by a Maryland police officer for trying to stop a fight.

Personally I don't want Maryland back

But if I could vote to kick Pitt, Louisville, Syracuse and BC out of the conference and bring in teams that actually care about football and have tradition I'd do that in a heartbeat. Let's be honest here, last year y'all got up to what...3rd in the country? You had the Heisman winner, and you still lost to Kentucky and Houston? Tommy Bowden used to pull that crap and we fired him. Your coach does it and y'all worship him. See the difference?

I mean, it does indeed take a special amount of ignorance and mouthbreather tendencies to use "the new verb" as if it's original or relevant.

letdowns against inferior talent (would be the equivalent of losing to Duke, BC or Louisville today). Dabo is different, if something is wrong, it gets fixed. But keep on believing Petino can get it done up there at Lewisville, as far as I'm concerned I'd love it if y'all gave him a lifetime contract. What's his record in big games?

You mean during his 11-1 year Arkansas, or beating #3 ranked WVU at UofL?
Petrino's past doesn't have much to do with this team. Saturday night is what is has to do with. Your Dabo and Venables are special coaches - elite. I;m glad you don't see Petrino worthy of wearing their day old sweat socks. I wager they do not agree.
Last season's Clemson/UofL game was a classic, generally regarded as one of the best games of the season. A total thrill which we all enjoyed because we like the sport. We find it remarkable the lack of respect we see here. This is truly a Millennial posting island.

You want respect? Earn it instead of crying on our message board about not getting respect. Tell your football team to go win something, then you'll get respect. But losing to Kentucky, Houston and LSU in a year where you had one of the best teams in school history isn't going to earn you respect around here. And the more you come here playing the victim and crying about respect, the less likely you'll actually have a fun time on our board. Hth

Lack of respect
Sep 14, 2017, 2:09 AM
[ in reply to Re: That verb became popular as a result of XCTB's consistent ] |

Clemson actually welcomed you into the ACC as one of the member schools who supported your entry into the conference. The first year, your fans were good sports and complimentary of our program. Then, you became constant whiners after losing some close games. That trend has continued, and is the reason for any perceived lack of respect.

I call Bull on that. Louisville was honored to compete - very solidly - with Clemson. You know absolutely nothing about our fans being "bad", lol. Once again, both fan bases who invest time and travel energy into their programs enjoyed each other immensely in the past - bar no year. Zero bad vibes. We loved the true college atmosphere and the enthusiasm of Clemson fans. In fact, after having been in conference with WVU, UConn, South Florida, UCF and Rutgers fans, the graciousness at Clemson was an unbelievably pleasant surprise. It matters and it carries through to today. Check your reports on tailgates in Louisville and the time they have, touring the many weird places we supply.
No - what you believe is a special kind of product only online fans can ruin.

It just provided one more bit of motivation to the entire Clemson program to achieve what they did the past 2 seasons.

I know quite a bit about Clemson's history. I understand the passionate fan base you guys have. I also know that you tolerated ten years of Bowden and Ken Hatfield for a few years. So don't act like you have a short chain on the coach.

The record speaks for itself. Also, the fact that you retained little Tommy doesn't square with the idea that you won't tolerate mediocre coaching. Clemson actually did.

Are you seriously arguing about something that happened in 2008 when he was fired?
I guess when you argue with your wife you bring up the guy she was with before you right?

Care to talk about Pitino and Petrino's character issues and how you some how overlook them and not only retain them, but in Petrino's case rehire him.

Not really. Neither one of them will win Husband of the year. Rick got caught bending a tramp over a table and Bobby had his volleyball gf at Arky. How can I defend that? What would be refreshing is that you ladies could talk football instead of diving into a morality lecture.

Pretty sure you asked me why Bowden & Hatfield ...
Sep 12, 2017, 12:49 PM
[ in reply to LOL, you want to talk football? Cool, let's do that... ] |

... coached so long given there sub-standard product on the field.
Pretty sure I answered you in a frame of reference I felt that you, as a Louisville fan, might understand.
As for Clemson football and its current state, I don't think I really need to add to what is obvious:
1) We have a pretty dang good program right now that is sending a lot of kids to the NFL, winning a lot games and championships, and attracting the attention of a lot of coveted high school kids (oh, and almost all of our kids leave here with a degree in their hands).
2) Our coach is a very amiable family man who time and time again "does the right thing" regardless of the situation.
Basically, I was making a juxtaposition as to what it tolerated and not tolerated at Clemson versus what appears to be tolerated at Louisville. Sorry if you thought it was a sermon, it was more of an observation.
Congratulations on Jackson's Heisman (he is easily the most athletic guy in college football right now, perhaps ever), but if it looks like he may win again this year, please make him take "Public Speaking 101" before he gets in front of the cameras again.

Went to 3 games at Maryland, and while the fans weren't welcoming and have no idea what tailgating should be, I never had any trouble.
Went to L'ville in '15 and I actually thought the fans were pretty cool. I had a great time at Churchill Downs, visiting Jim Beam, Uber-ed to a fun bar afterward. And I LOVED that they sold beer during the game!
No, I don't want Maryland back.
