Did he really say “people talk about him like he’s some slapdick”? My autocorrect took that out twice trying to type it!

Yep, all he lack's is the ability to complete a 5 yard screen pass, be accurate on his downfield throws, and get past "1" on his progressions. Other than that, he's pretty good.

What part of last season said this guy is a Heisman contender to you? The horrible throws or was it the more interceptions then TD’s or ranking 97th in QBR out of 120 QB’s… if Cade doesn’t start this year we are F’d. DJ = ??

Homie, Kyle was awesome and if he only played football 100% could’ve been an NFL QB or back up. He was destroying the eventual national champs before they broke his ribs. Helluva player.

I guess D.J. didn’t need to be there..Dabo made all the excuses why his “star” quarterback threw for 9 TD’s and 10 interceptions, Even with the excuses.. What would be the best grade to give D.J. for his performance. In lieu of what Dabo said? I would give him a “C” at best. Most great QB’s work through adversity would have done better. Let’s see if Dabo knows something we haven’t seen since the Notre Dame game.

"Milkbone underwear." Another one of the great Daboisms. A lot of people talk about what Dabo might do after Clemson, but I believe he will stay with us until he has completed his coaching career and then will go into broadcasting. He is the next Dizzy Dean.

I was able to catch some of our guys on the ACC network yesterday. They represented Clemson well. A big shoutout to KJ Henry who is going to lead this years Natty champion team like CW42. A great young man and a team leader.
I posted on here a couple of days ago that I would be DJ’s biggest cheerleader this year. I know that he gave the team his all last year and that his all was not his normal best. I feel in my gut that Cade is going to end up starting but, I want DJ to prove me wrong.
I have watched a lot of Clemson football games through the years. I have never seen a Clemson QB look as overwhelmed as DJ did last season. The guy would not move. His reaction time was slow and passes were way off target. I really believe that DW, TL, and KB would have had that hurt, mash unit of a team in the playoff.
This season, the QB room is again stocked full of options. DJ needs to start game one focused and looking like a third year player ready for the playoff. He needs to carry the team as a leader. I will know pretty quickly if he is going to make it as the starter.

We’ll know by halftime of the GT game. Smoke and mirrors maybe but the ol’ saying is true - “Time doesn’t hide a fool”. I wish him the best and hope the clouds clear between his ears.

Look at DJ’s performance during the second half of the season. As the team improved so did he. Even with a bum knee. This season’s schedule sets up better for him to get comfortable and confident. Challenges vs NCS, FSU, UM and ND. A conservative offense and great defense can win those games. Biggest question mark for me is at WR and OL.

Any person who blames DJ for our losses last year in not a fan and has never played a sport. If DJ plays with good health and has healthy 1st team players around him, he will do great. If DJ falters, next man up because that is why we recruit.

Heather Dinich approves. Similarities to EJ Manuel and Logan Thomas are striking.
