Waiting on coach now. Tigers play at NC State Saturday at 3:30 on ESPN. Should be some interesting stuff today.

Coach Swinney is here, says it's a huge challenge this week, going on the road at NC State. "Very good team. Complete. One of the most experienced teams in the country for sure." He says they are well-coached, play hard, tough and smart.

Swinney says the QB "is a baller. A very good player. Excellent thrower. Athletic. Understands the scheme and what they do."

He says the NC State defense "look like us on tape." Guys who have played a lot of football, stingy, not allowed a rushing TD in three games. Confident group. Very good special teams group. School record holder in FG and punting.

But what about the stuff the defense doesn't have on tape

Swinney says he is excited to see his team play a true road game. They have to play well.

Tyler Davis had surgery this morning. They look forward to getting him back but next man up. Ruke has played well and they have him and some other guys that have gotten experience and have played well.

Tre Williams has been banged up but getting better every week. He is "a presence and an athletic kid."

On the Bockhorst comments, Dabo said he "is an incredibly committed guy. He has been around a long time."

Swinney says "some day we will take practice to game day. Our guys are committed. We have great effort, but it's great effort and technique that leads to execution and that is what we are missing right now."

Dabo says last week was worst game defense has played. Missed tackles. Lack of discipline. Effort and physicality were good.

This one is interesting in that he will come right out and say defense "played terrible" but he cannot bring himself to say something like this about offense, even though he should. Weird.

4) I spend a lot of time thinking about the hidden meaning in things people say or events that happen.

3. I struggle with connecting the dots on disparate bits of information. It hurts me from making informed decisions. Example: When Dabo says "...it was a surprise" regarding Lyn J Dixon entering the transfer portal, I believe him.

he said it was their worst game of the 3 played. I'm sure that opinion is echoed by Venables

I almost spit out my apple juice.
They missed tackles probably because they were getting gassed.

You know the guys that won you the game the offense tried to give away every way possible.

Swinney says freshman running back Will Shipley has incredible vision. Also says freshman backer Barrett Carter is going to be a great player (Carter was on the field at crunch time Sat)

Swinney says there is still depth at RB. They think Phil Mafah will be a week-to-week kind of deal. They feel good about the guys they have. He says Lyn-J made a decision and got a head start on the portal. He says it was a surprise

Maybe he was expecting Dixon to oh I don't know, listen to what he was saying and grow up? So many people talk about coddling kids nowadays then turn on people at the drop of the hat when they don't agree with someone actually not doing it. Dabo has done pretty ok so far, how about we give him the benefit of the doubt?

A surprise? You call him out and embarrass him publicly, what do you expect will happen?

Swinney says LB Vonta Bentley is a great example of how guys should be ready. Bentley is always listening and always preparing. Committed young man. Great with academics. Great example of being ready.

Good thing he didn't have the Lie-o-meter hooked up to him. What a canned response.

I LOVE this stuff. I listen to the PC's every week.

What incredible leaders we have here at Clemson for coaches.
I only wish we listened more and behaved more like them outright instead of the trigger/click-bait & disrespect card nearly all the time. It just feels so vastly disproportionate.
Not every program gets these kinds of pressers, and we get them every week & without a paywall. Yeah, I absolutely celebrate it.
I'm also taking Clemson & the over at NC State. GO TIGERS!
