Anyone else wonder how Zion Williamson would have

actually fit in here? Now, with all these transfers we are basically a "pick up team" with great chemistry. I'm not being negative, I actually like that we have all these transfers. Hats off the CBB, for pulling this all together and making it work. We don't appear to have any egos, just a lot great team players who want to be here and are having fun.
ZW would have stayed one year tops. I love what we are now building. Seems like he fits the Duke Prima Donna one and done model much more than our team approach. I wish him well, but don't feel as bad as I did about missing out on him. I think we will be fine next year without him and it might have been for the best.

Would have liked to see him on our team.
But I guess I would tend to agree with you.

He's not a Tiger, and he won't be a Tiger, there fore I don't waste a spit second wondering anything about him, and I never will. He is lost to any of my thoughts with none concerning Zion Williamson, ZERO!!!

What is the most bothering, is when some folks want us to fantasize about someone that will never ever be a part of Clemson in anyway shape or form. Zion Williamson is in distant past, period. If they have to have something to quiz about, how about ask what could we have been if we hadn't lost Donte Grantham bc of an injury. Could we have been 15-3 in the ACC, or 30-4 on the season to now!!! I worry more over what could have been, and never about what never happen, and Zion Williamson never happen for us.

... js.
But I get you, my friend.
TBT, being back in the woods as I am, I wasn’t able to talk about the Auburn win with anyone in person, so figgered I come on tnet with my Tiger buds and bask in the win. Usually not a big fan of woulda coulda shoulda, but ####, seeing our guys flying high in San Diego, I couldn’t help but fantasize about Donte being healthy... and although I too, have said ZW is dead to me, but what if.....
GO TIGERS!!!

Growing up in Spartanburg county I will pull for him just not when he plays against our boys. He seems to be a stand up kid. He didn't come to Clemson and that is perfectly fine. I agree that thinking about what if is just dumb. We have recruits coming in that are going to be the big time players for this team in a few years. Gonna be fun to watch them grow. Zion would be a one and done anyways so I am kinda glad he went to Duke but when he gets into the NBA he is going to be one I pull for especially whenever Lebron retires which will be years and years from now.

I would still love to see Zion with us, I think he would be a tremendous help as we have amazing guards and decent big men (although Thomas has REALLY been a dominant force lately as if he realized finally how big he is) Zion would be fun and obviously a freak talent on the court even for a year it would help Clemson and put a rangy big man to help us continue to put our opponents down late after tiring them out.

No, I haven’t given it another thought after he chose “tha brothahood” at Duke.

I wish him well, and would’ve loved to have him, but since he chose to go elsewhere I don’t waste my time and energy on it.

I'm sorry, but this thread is the type that if it were posted by South Carolina fans on their boards, we'd all be on here making fun of it. The guy made a choice. I'm sure he would have been great here, and I'm sure he'll be great at Duke as well.

have a team in the Sweet 16, and have come to terms that he chose a big time program like Duke for a year. We're not stressing over the issue, which is polar opposite of the coot life. We're just having fun with it.

He pulled more than the usual 15 minutes of fame out his signing with a blueblood, played ESPN into primetime air time, signed where everyone had him going to begin with before his gaming the crowd, and got the ego trip of having crowds beg him to come to their school. He pulled off a coup.
