If every player on the team had the fight and heart

of Will Shipley this team would be unbeatable.
That kid impresses me every game. He has taken the team on his back a couple of times already this season and plays with fire ALL THE TIME.
Imagine what his numbers would look like with even an average o-line...wow.
Excited to see what he does in the future.

I don't think our players are missing heart and fight. I see it all over the field, including DJ. That's why I am really proud of this team.

Not necessarily "missing" it but not on the same level

as Shipley.
Some of our guys look defeated. I understand it's been a trying season and that is somewhat normal, but body language and effort just aren't there for some of them.

I think it's a bit of a stretch

To think that your read of body language from a TV camera correlates to a lack of effort.

Experience is what most off our players need most.

Then maybe we would have a half chance of winning a game

since you have already conceded Wake, South Carolina (and, if I remember correctly, Louisville)
Nice positive post, +1

I think there are plenty of players showing as much heart and determination…Shipley just gets most of the camera/focus. Instead of just watching him, pick out an O-lineman or LB or D lineman and just watch them on a play(s)…I think you’ll see plenty of guys showing heart and fight.

Shipley is a solid football player who will only improve as the seasons progress. This certainly isn’t one of Clemsons best teams but I can’t think of another with the perseverance that this team has from top to bottom. Hopefully the team can win out and finish in the top twelve or so and have a great spring as 2022 gets closer.
Some think that this decline by the Tigers means the end to their domination of the league but there isn’t a single one of us who believes that AND the team certainly doesn’t! Just a bump in the road. Smooth riding ahead because no one is going to go backwards on this team. Some tnetters may but you don’t count,
