What Happened to "WE TOO DEEP" ??
Dec 22, 2021, 2:55 PM

I remember when the coaches would rotate players in and out the game, keeping the lines fresh. ( Seems as though there were not as many injuries either)
Between the transfer portal being used as a revolving door and the # of decommits
(According to posters on TNet)...seems as though we can't get enough players to even make a line.
Was there a cut back in the number of scholarships? Relaxed recruiting? Out recruited? NIL making a negative impact alot sooner than expected?
Future sign of the times to HS players.....
Come butt-the- bench for bucks with us!

as if having depth on the bench is becoming a thing of the past. I hate the transfer portal and the effect its having on college football.

As almost always there are multiple items influencing the situation.
A few teams are ahead of the curve with NIL and we are not one of them.
The portal is in vogue in terms of guys transferring instead of digging deep to make it work.
Dabo's methodology of only offering a scholarship only when a spot is open does not offer enough catch up speed to overcome NIL and Portal.
Both coordinators, actually just Venables, was a big draw so his leaving opened up the path for several elite players to opt out and cash in on the NIL.

We too deep is over. The last few games I attended when they played that, the crowd wasn’t really responding with the “Ay! Ay!” It’s run its course.
New team, new staff, new identity, and new era of Clemson Football.
Time for a new fresh slogan. We shall see what this team will be made of after the bowl and next spring. Exciting but anxious at the same time.

"According to posters on Tigernet"?...

Curious assertion and source to derive information w/o cross-checking; are you crediting tigernet posters with your knowledge of the decommits?

@partsunknown
By way of reposted articles, tweets, and facts from others that end up proving to be solid.
Some are opinions that have merit while others are gloom and doom. Some are even ludicrous like blaming Spiller for running off a player after he entered the transfer portal...( yep, I am pro-Spiller)
it is often that the same information delivered to two different people will be perceived two different ways. One will make excuses and the other will place blame...but I digress.
No, I fact check if and when I feel the need. Sometimes I take the wait and see approach, But most of the time I have read or heard it on the sports channels myself.
I for one, greatly appreciate the repost ??

Recruiting has dropped way off. Only offer 200 or so recruits is catching up.

Depth requires stability. The transfer portal killed that.***
