I'm sure he's well aware that nothing will be handed to them.

The "playing at Clemson" part was only mentioned in the headline, probably written by Tony Crumpton or some other TigerNet staffer. Herbstreit's tweets focused on his pride in his sons and his excitement that they will be a part of Clemson's incredible culture. His twins could have gone to a smaller school and seen more likely playing time. But like Hunter Renfrow, they wanted the Clemson degree and the Clemson experience. I'm sure Kirk understands what's in store.

Why rain on a proud father's parade. Kirk didn't even mention playing in his tweets — that was just the headline added by TigerNet. His sweet messages to his sons were expressions of love and excitement that they will be part of the Clemson Family.

Lol . The negativity has already started. If it wasn't wasn't directed at the Herbstreit twins, it would be for something else .
Get used to it , boys. Don't pay any attention to it . Unfortunately, it's a normal part of TNet and no one will escape it unscathed .

Ohio State alumni

For anyone who Doesn't know, Herbstreit is Ohio state alumni. Had a fantastic career there as a QB. I dont know about him, but my daughter hears Clemson day and night. She already knows thats where she is going to school. I would have to believe that those boys grew up in a fairly similar fashion. For them to be coming here, knowing that they have an Ohio State guarantee and at least some garbage playing time, that's pretty big for all of them. At no time has anyone heard Herbstreit say anything but good things about Clemson. He went out of his way to talk about the Clemson way of life during the NC. You cant possibly believe that he, knowing all of that, simply expects Dabo to start his boys. Dabo's own son only comes in during garbage time. Herbstreit didnt mince words or put any hidden meanings in there. It was a heartfelt message, by a proud father, showing his love for his boys. Period.

What 'playing at Clemson' means ...

In my opinion, ANY player that is a member of the Clemson team - whether starter, 2nd through nth string, or scout team - 'Plays at Clemson'.
All these young men have committed the time, effort, blood, sweat, and tears and have dedicated themselves to the success of the program.
To me, it doesn't matter if they start every game, or don't play a snap in an official game in their entire career. The fact that they are 'All In', every practice, every day means they are a Clemson Player to me.
