Chicken or Egg?


Apr 23, 2022, 6:35 PM

Well, there's no room for chicken at Clemson, except for on a dinner plate.... :)

Another post was concerned with Spiller's RB recruiting success for '23 and a follow-up post suggested it might be because our OL wasn't up to what a recruit could expect at UGA or OSU. That might be true. Most RBs want to run behind a powerful, nasty OL and we can't claim that for the past couple of years.

However; I did read where Dabo has said that our OL is much further along than what it was at the beginning of Spring camp and he's satisfied that we can win with what we've got. I know we've heard that before and it didn't happen (mostly due to injuries), but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for another year in this kind of promotional hype.

If he turns out to be right and our OL can move the pile this year, it should improve Spiller's recruiting for next year and put us back on track to get a more balanced group of impressive recruits. It does make sense to me that Spiller's success as a RB recruiter is somewhat dependent upon what the OL can do to help RBs look good.

I hope he's right and our 3 horses can run behind a dominant OL this year that will cause the best RB recruits to gather in TigerTown!

Some people just can't seem to understand that Dabo knows what he is doing. You are right, just let things go as Dabo advises. Multiple National Championships and some on Tigernet know more than him.

No No, some on T Net think they know more than Dabo, but if they did, they would probably be a HC at a program of their own!!!

It just seems all the Dabo doubters end up with egg on their face

I wish there was a way to buy individual eggs for 25c each


Apr 23, 2022, 6:49 PM

When I make Brownies, the recipe only calls for one, so I have to throw out the other 11.

Don’t be ridiculous- I thought everybody knows you are supposed to make 12 pans of brownies each time so that you don’t have to throw out the extra eggs.

Dominant o-line or not, you can't rely on just the running game. If our starting QB has the same stats as last year your looking at another 10 win season at best.

You are 100% correct - we’ll need to be able to consistently pass to compete period. We were run and done last year. We do have options this year if in the same boat. In regards to the OL, Dabo did say he’d be looking at the portal.

What do you mean, "it didn't happen"?***

It’s been shown repeatedly that whatever position group Dabo especially touts pre-season will be woefully lacking when the season starts. He knows they aren’t up to snuff and is trying to be encouraging.
