....the band wagon still needs more pruning, which is the pruning I'm looking forward to. Offensive line.... When Chad Morris was hired the dynamic of the oline changed. They wanted slimmer quicker Offensive linemen bc the plan was to run 80+ plays and push the tempo. That was the knock on Clemson when it came to the NFL, that Clemson's ran a college Offensive system with college Offensive linemen. It wasn't until Elliott left and Thomas was hired that that philosophy changed where Thomas wanted to get much bigger. I know ppl remember the change to bigger linemen and that is why. Should Thomas have been fired, idk but if you go off performance then yes. The Offensive line regressed. Wide receiver I have a bigger issue with firing bc Dabo trained Jeff Scott and Grish. Grisham coaches the way Dabo coached not to mention Dabo is an active participant in coaching the receivers. The receivers is more of misses and NIL. You have to ask your self one question when it comes to recruiting most big time players, are you okay with cheating? The only way to get some of these players and that is to break the rules bc it's still illegal to straight out offer recruits money. I know a lot of you don't care but Dabo is not going to go against his morals and beliefs so technically some of you want Dabo fired but aren't smart enough to understand that.
Re: So when we miss at a position like WR, it's b/c we didn't cheat?

Agree, obviously we didn't for this class. Ladson, good example, 5*, recruited heavy and now transferred twice. Next season will be telling once we get all our pieces healthy.
Stellato can fight and catch the ball, but once again, hurt.
