...tired of seeing 3-5 articles per day about how the critics are picking us to make deep playoff runs and how our starting defense and offense are going to all be picked in the first round of next year's NFL draft (exaggeration)..?

I'm cautiously optimistic about the coming season, but all this hype from the media that spent ALL OF LAST YEAR saying Dabo was a relic whose best days were behind him is driving me bonkers. I seriously feel like my head is spinning every day I logon and see 3 new articles posted all saying the same thing coming from the media that spent all last year hating on us.

Go Tigers!!

Beats reading the usual Doom and Gloom a lot of posters on here tend to share.

rat poison. Plus hoping LSU can pull off the win and then crow.

Trust me, when we win, the narrative will instantly switch to yeah we won but didn't look like world beaters. Questions will be raised.

That or 3/4's of T-Net will be saying that they knew we would win, and they posted that we would several days ago!!!

That first part wouldn't surprise me...

...if LSU pulls out a W, the media pounding the drum that we're supposed to be world beaters this year will bolster the SEC's overinflated resume...and give the media an irrational belief that 3-4 loss LSU deserves to be in the 12 team playoff. ::eye roll::

And I hate it that those “critics” are usually right about how awesome our teams and staff are.

Part of this site is to deliver news and articles about Clemson athletics. What kind of articles are you suggesting the management of this board post?

Men at 25 play football. Men at 40 play tennis. Men at 60 play golf. Have you noticed as men get older their balls get smaller.


Newsflash - the media exaggerates everything.

Dabo is still one of the best coaches in the game and is quickly becoming one of the most accomplished coaches in college football history.

These are verifiable facts. Screw the media!

To keep yourself sane from all the BS that can be read here on T-Net, you just have to take everything that you read or hear with a grain of salt. If you allow it, it can twist your mind and your guts up to a point of being sickening. So, the best way of dealing with everything that you read or hear about our Tiger teams is to not believe half of what's being written or said. If not, you'll be one of those fans that is always bonusing off the walls and ceilings. The more clicks they get, the more money they make so they write the headliner up to get you to click on it, the number of clicks is what gets the advertisers interested in paying to use this site for their advertisements!!!

Yes, but they have to have something to talk about. Do wish it would lighten up. Too much time between now and then. Too many things have to fall in place for predictions to be remotely close to accurate.

I enjoy reading it.

I just hope the players aren't reading it.

And I said this was going to happen and I hope Dabo saw it coming.

That was a couple of weeks ago.

Wait until Athlons and Street and Smith etc
All the big pubs come out saying the same thing.

Dabo will have them grounded I think.

I love the positive takes but I am cautiously optimistic and need to see it on the field 8/30 before I even think Natty.
