Simply meant, he'd rather be DC anywhere other than Clemson.

Yes, he took a jab at us too, looks as if Spurrier is wearing off on the entire coaching staff.
We need to destroy and torch his defense on Sat...

Yea, it's much tougher to gameplan with a high tempo spread offense. Why do you think that BV looks so pumped up on the sidelines?!

You sure this wasn't really meant as a compliment?

Question: How do you like being a DC for Clemson? (as in "How hard is it to prepare for Clemson's offense?")
Response: I'd rather DC for Ga Tech or Wofford (as in "Those offenses are difficult to prepare for, but Clemson's is tougher").

GT and Wofford play the clock control run offense.

He thinks being a DC for our team is tough, since our offense doesn't let them get much rest

Either way, I doubt it was a dig.

Hard to tell without hearing the question or his tone, but most likely saying he'd rather have more rested players

Wouldn't every D coordinator prefer ball control O?

[ in reply to If taken that way, it'd mean he rather DC for team ] |

If their D isn't on the field, the other team's O can't score. Thats the point of D.
It has its benefits that an O can put points on the board because it means you don't have to get a stop on every possession. But if you have more possessions to defend you will give up points and yards.
A good head coach seeks the right balance.

Lorenzo Ward = Coot DC. But Ellis was the DC when we played them last year, I think b/c these seasons fly by.

agreement with most Def Coordinators, ball control vs quick scoring or 3 and out.
