Only negative I see if Ferrel, Bryant, Wilkins come back


Jan 12, 2018, 1:45 PM

Is that we will most likely have our whole starting Dline leave after next year including some backups. Wilkins, Lawrence, Bryant, Ferrell, Huggins, Robinson and Register would be gone. Ferrell and Dexter would have another yr of eligibility but highly unlikely they would stay

That would be fine, we will have the most depth of anyone in the country next year, and would be able to handle losing those guys better than most teams.

If they all stay, our backup DL will be better than 98.8% of other teams starting DL's. Add in heavy rotation you get valuable playing time. Which means our won't miss a beat for years to come.
I can't wait for next season!!

I don't view departures to the NFL as a negative.


Jan 12, 2018, 2:01 PM

We are developing backups as well as anyone these days. Imo, a departure is an opportunity for someone to step in and surpass his predecessor. When this happens across an entire line it's a fantastic time to watch a new group make their marks on the record books.

It's also another year which gives our young coaching staff as opportunity to explore new ways to form a group which tortures our opponents. I use to fear the unknown but I've learned to love the newness of each Clemson football class.

Maybe negative wasnt the right word to say


Jan 12, 2018, 3:11 PM

Concerned would of been better. 7 guys just on the defensive line leaving after next season if Wilkins, Ferrell and Bryant come back. 7 players on our whole defense leaving would make you worried. I don't think we've ever had that many guys at one position group leave.

Our DL will be on heavy rotation.***

I’m sorry I just don’t see any negative to them coming back. Another run at the NC, another year of leading our young players and another year of Christian’s humor

I would rather have all of them back one more year and lose all of them at once, than lose 3 of them this year and still lose the rest of them next year.

Be optimistic

If the entire line leaves, is replaced and clemson keeps winnning it means clemson has staying power.

If they lose the bandwagoneeers will leave and you will get better season tickets.

It is a win win.

Tons of players will get less but better quality reps and they will all be healthy and mature for the NFL draft. 2017, 2018 and 2019 players will be ready to shine in 2019, 2020, 2021......
