The Clowney Propaganda That is Going on.....
Aug 20, 2013, 7:18 AM
|
|
There is no question that Clowney is a great player, but they are taking his hype to a new level....The sports media is putting him on such a high pedestal that when he falls, it will be a hard fall...
Here is the reality of Clowney's hype as I see it:
Clowney's "unstoppable" activities in practice are the results of essentially having a "red jersey" on him...Does anyone think that Clowney's team mates are really getting after him or is he seeing very vanilla schemes? Any player that wants to stay on that team knows to protect Clowney....so of course he is going to look like a beast in practice......
If Carolina returns to their old ways and drops 3-4 games and is out of the SEC hunt, I suspect Clowney will develop some lingering injury that will keep him out for the rest of the year.....to protect himself for the NFL.
He is a great player, but there is a bit of a fraud being perpetuated on people right now....

There is as much Clowney "propaganda" here on this board as anywhere else. The only "fraud" being committed is not admitting he is a great player and continuing to trash talk him for no reason other than he has had a lot of success against the Tigers. Had he come here, there would be just as much adulation for him in Clemson as there is in Columbia.

I totally agree !!!!!!! Clowney is definitely a beast !!! Probably has much to do with other players being so intimidated by him (Scared)!!!! In order to beat a beast, you have to become a BEAST !!!!!!!!

Fully Agree with this !
Talk is cheap. The ONLY way to contain the guy is to
be better than he is if you're going head to head
against him, or for the opposition's coach to play the
perfect game plan to account for him. Speculation about
him "faking a season finishing injury IF......" or
somebody taking him out sometime in the season is basically
wishful thinking by those who will have to play against
him at some point. Just man up and beat him... PERIOD !

great player and then not talking about him. The sheer number of posts on tigernet about how overrated he is just proves that he's not overrated and makes a bunch of y'all look like obsessed teens.

The Debate is somewhat forced upon us..Isn't it?

You can't read a mainstream sports media source that isn't pushing the issue..so of course it is a source of discussion....
You can choose to not participate......although I am glad you did..

he single handedly won them 3 games last year......maybe more.
Until somebody steps up to the plate and stops him........it will continue.

The Hype around him is just that. Same as it was around
Tim Tebow once the national media had something about
him they could run with. He'll have several big games,
and he'll be contained a couple or three games like he
was last season. The media will do with that what they
want to, and have always done. They'll use it to their
advantage. The thing is, he made some statements this
summer that will make him either have to prove he's
"ALL THAT" or it will make him look like he's simply
a good / not great player. That will only be determined
when the lights come on and they blow the whistle to
start the games.

I think you're onto something here ! Can not understand
why the rest of the country doesn't see something that's
as plain as day. I'd call this in to the press and let
them know ASAP !

I'm telling you, it's all part of that vast, right wing/communistic/Wall Street/evangelical/ESPN/SEC/New Black Panther/KKK/mainstream media/Dark Corner moonshiners/Swofford agenda/Martians for Hillary conspiracy to keep the brothers and sisters from Clemson down and in their place. It's not going to work though, because we have Dabo, and the force is with him!

What if you read....
"The Tagy Boyd Propaganda That is Going on.....
There is no question that Boyd is a great player, but they are taking his hype to a new level....The sports media is putting him on such a high pedestal that when he falls, it will be a hard fall...
Here is the reality of Boyd's hype as I see it:
Boyd's "unstoppable" activities in practice are the results of essentially having a "red jersey" on him...Does anyone think that Boyd's team mates are really getting after him or is he seeing very vanilla schemes? Any player that wants to stay on that team knows to protect Boyd....so of course he is going to look like a beast in practice......
If Clemson returns to their old ways and drops 3-4 games and is out of the ACC hunt, I suspect Boyd will develop some lingering injury that will keep him out for the rest of the year.....to protect himself for the NFL.
He is a great player, but there is a bit of a fraud being perpetuated on people right now.... "
Let it rest....Clowney is going to be Clowney and doesn't impact Clemson until November....Perhaps this year he will not outshine Boyd as much during the game as he has for the past two years.
