Had a chance to ride over to Clemson yesterday: The campus

looked nice and did some natty gear shopping. A bit of bad luck in that the Football Operations lobby was closed for construction until Monday. I looked through the door and could see the CFP National championship trophy and two crystal football trophies. I really liked how they had them displayed. They looked awesome. However, I could not see any other trophies through the door. Are the Fiesta Bowl, Orange Bowls, ACC Championship and division titles trophies in that same building, or are they displayed somewhere else?

Yes, it was over to the left. The glare and the Sun

location was the biggest thing hampering the view. But I could definitely see the CFP National Championship trophy front and center, the two crystal balls flanking to each side and a little back,, and yes I could see a bit of the slide.

I got a tour of it yesterday. Overall, it's pretty incredible. We didn't spare an expense. The weight room, locker room, and outdoor components are pretty mind-blowing. I also like the natural connection to the IPF. Very cool. My only critique would be the sometimes garish use of purple throughout the complex. I love our purple, but it should be treated more as a compliment to orange. At the ops facility it gets the same same billing and it's just too much. It looks like a circus on steroids in some areas. I also find the slide to be kind of tacky and just kind of dumb. Overall, it's awesome.

Looks like everyone that's been down the slide - loves it!

Those bowl trophies you inquired about are on the second floor and not as accessible to the public at this time. That may change at some point. The facility is out of sight and we are very fortunate to have it. It will be impactful for a long time to come!

Thanks for that information about the other trophies.

Hopefully they will soon be in a place where people get a good view of them. Nothing says impressive like three or four Orange Bowl trophies, a Fiesta Bowl, a bunch of conference championships, etc.

I wonder why they are not on display for all to see! Seems like a no-brainier to me. I am sure recruits and big donors see all of them if they want.
