Maybe our biggest problem is....

Our O Line goes against our D Line in spring ball and fall camp.

And our D Line goes against our O line in spring ball and fall camp.....

Joking aside, I remember the years where Dabo made BV sit out some DL and didn't allow them to blitz to build confindence for our OL in spring ball.

I'll never forget in TLs first spring with KB and the kid that went to northwestern where it was live on the QB in the spring.

The play of both sides in the trenches is mind boggling. How you can return all of those starters and regress like they have.

BobbyB....i was thinking something similar. As bad as the O-line has looked, you can almost see how the Defense could regress. Not going against the best in practice could easily breed complacency.

One thing that stuck out to me in Tom Allen's press conference was that we went good on good a lot more than he has at any other school.

Sounds like at least they are trying to toughen both sides of the line-up.

I remember when I was at Clemson 1995-1999.... once the season got going, even on "full contact" Tuesdays and Wednesdays, by about halfway in the season, it was not full contact. Couldn't risk injury to the starters.

I was like D Hood.... I would hide in the bushes on perimeter road and watch practice.

Dabo has never practiced as physically as most teams.

NIL and lighter practices are a bad mix in my opinions. Becoming more physical and demanding in practice is needed now. Dabo has tried to limit practice injuries, but in today’s game with kids filing their pockets and getting complacent, you MUST be more physical and demanding in practice.

It’s almost like the entire team is suffering because of terrible coaching and coaching decisions.

But no, that can’t possibly be. This staff is perfect. It’s just a player or two keeping us from being elite.

I (along with nearly everyone else) have proven your desperation about one player wrong. You refuse to answer to clear wrong about your “facts” and play gaslighter.

You know nothing about fb. Nothing about strength and conditioning.

You’ve avoided answering 9 times now while saying you avoid no one.

Apparently the game has changed dramatically since then. As much as S&C has I guess. Your clear lack of knowledge about S&C and injuries says as much.

Honestly, I’m just digging on you because a month ago anyone that brought up anything about coaches you posted 900 times that the only problem was Cade. It was an obsession. Yes, you acknowledge other problems as tiny. If someone said our RB coach was bad, it was “no one would be complaining if Cade played better”. Could not be further from the truth. Some have seen problems for years now. You’d belittle and yell “coot” if they disagreed. So I pushed back.

I’m done with it now. It was fun. I have nothing to be bitter about, I have a fantastic life. I’ve read this forum for decades without posting and had laughs and cries.

Still wanna make a bet about Randall getting drafted as a RB? I kid, I kid.

Explain how our S&C is leading to any more injuries than everyone else.

Would you like to meet in a gym somewhere and see who has what?

You only think you understand football. You don’t.

How many years of organized ball have you played? Have you ever practiced under Ford? Were you even born, Skippy?

See this is your problem, you’re literally all over the place and not forming any coherent arguments.

When I posted about Cade, he was the reason for our first 3 losses. Try to keep up. And again, if Cade played to his potential we would have been 5-1 or 6-0 entering the SMU game, where the defense fell apart. That’s stands 100% true.

I call very very few people coots, and they are coots. You on the other hand are a funny bitter guy who knows nothing about this game. Nothing at all. You are the epitome of an entitled whiner who couldn’t take a minute of a Ford practice. You’d be crying for you mommy.

Make no mistake though, I was questioning the DL coaches from week 2, and whether or not their coaching was no longer taking hold. Again, try to to keep up Skippy.

I never once requested a bet that Randall would be an NFL RB. Can you get any facts correct, junior?

So where was your question, Skippy?

You’re literally all talk no substance. An entitled whiner - that’s your schtick.


You got nothing. Nothing at all but hot air. A joke really.

You didn’t prove a darn thing. In fact you have yet to make a coherent argument. Just hot air and bitter BS. I’m literally LOLing st how ignorant you are, and that goofy soft ### entitlement is the cherry on top.

Ooh. Now you’re angry. I kinda like it.

I never said it was causing more injuries. Try to keep up Skippy. You said there was no way S&C could be the reason for more injuries. That’s just not true. It’s changed a ton over the years. I’m heavily involved in fitness. Lifting, biking,etc. Competed a couple times. Played fb through hs. Wasn’t nearly good enough to play college. I know my limitations well. Nope. Couldn’t make it through Fords practices back then. Mentally I could now, but at 51 the metrics wouldn’t be there.

I have no idea how we would do against one another in the gym. I don’t know you. But I can tell You I have 20 year olds ask my routine and diet at the gym.

You’re missing the point. This team has issues. You think none of us would say anything if we were 3-0. Just wrong. Factually. Add in you c&p stuff over and over in one thread was hilarious. Like everyone needs to know what Mike thinks.

Here are what you won’t answer:

Your portal hatred refuses to take into account that a transfer can, in fact replace a graduating player. That’s just ignorant then say: “we have none out, zero need for any in”

You parroted over and over how 2020 was the best passing game in history to defend Grisham. It fell 1000 yards short. And a massive 15% was ETN. Facts are facts.

You were in love w the idea that Randall was gonna get drafted and likened him to ETN because of YPC. But hey, Cade is all the blame.

Don’t be angry because you’re now seeing what the rest of us saw. You made others think they were crazy.

But most of all it was the same incessant 3 posts. Copied and pasted. Changed a few words a day.

Don’t answer again. Let’s make it 11.

We were average on the lines of scrimmage last season and we did nothing to get better coming into this year. All the preseason hype was built off of the Texas game.

I really don’t remember them going live on the QB any year except 2014 when Swag Kelly complained about it. I’m not saying your wrong but I don’t recall us doing that in 2018

I remember being at the spring game in 2018 and one of the frustrations was for KB. TL was throwing the ball all over the field, but KB was getting harassed in the pocket and the play was over the minute he was touched. My daughter and I actually felt sorry for him. His game did not suit itself to touch football and we were sitting right behind the bench, watching him sort of hanging his head. Have they been live on the quarterback? He could’ve taken off and broke free of a lot of the hand checking and attempted arm tackles.

I thought in 2018, TL and Chase Bryce were Freshman. We also had KB and Hunter Johnson in the QB room and Ben Batson (walk on).

With that depth and seeing what they all could do against live bullets, Dabo decided to have live hits on the QB in spring practice.

After that spring, Hunter Johnson decided to transfer to Northwestern.
