Did CDS pull a QB out of the portal yet?


May 4, 2021, 6:33 PM

Am I the only person nervous about our QB situation? I know this staff shouldn't be questioned at this point and likely are working on a plan, but my nerves...

It's a fair question

Specifically, we could use another QB on the roster. Broadly, how will Clemson participate in the transfer portal going forward?

Dabo has historically been against transfers and Junior College guys. But, the game has changed.

OU has pulled in 6 players through the portal and that has (possibly) made them a better team. Saban went on record that Bama planned to study the situation and figure out how to make it an advantage for Bama.

I'm in the crowd that believes Dabo can do no wrong at this point. Whatever he decides to do, I trust it's the right decision. That said, if it were me, I'd go get a QB soonest.

wore a yellow Jersey during games. Hopefully, the other team will respect this and not tackle him.

Nope, Dabo doesn’t do the transfer portal thing.

At least not yet.

I’m guessing he will change his tune as we start to lose more and more players to the portal in the seasons to come.

The rules were a lot different when he said that.***

Are the any QBs currently in the portal that:

1. Doesn't suck
Or
2. Would be willing to ride the bench in 2021

I think the challenge with the portal is finding a quarterback that A) would come to our program knowing that they'd be meant to be the #2 QB at best unless DJU gets hurt or vastly underperforms, and that B) would still be good enough to improve our situation at the #2 spot.

Exactly, no QB entered the portal saying...


May 5, 2021, 12:20 PM

..."I wanna go where I can be a backup." They all want playing time and thus hit the portal button. Also safe to say Dabo is waiting to see what happens with the 2 highly regarded freshmen who will be drafted high by MLB.

‘Highly regarded freshmen’ in baseball (not football) and likely will get baseball offers they cannot refuse. Also, if we get in a position where we have rely on a true freshman and he’s not DJU circa 2020...then the season is probably toast. There has to be a QB in the portal who while he definitely won’t start in front of DJU, he can get garbage time minutes and go to the CFP.

DABO please work your magic!
