Julian Fleming or Dione Burks as a replacement for Collins. But we don't seem interested in high level players.

Dabo used to say we didn't lose starters to the portal

Now we have lost starters and he's still twiddling his thumbs.
This team gets younger and more inexperienced every single year. It's not good.

wouldn't high level players require high dollar payers?
Make a bigger donation to the 110 Initiative and tell them who you want. Message board chatter don't pay for portal players.

Collins is our only loss at WR and we have two WRs committed. We don't have a spot for a WR until another one leaves.

So we lose starters and just replace them with HS kids?

That's the winning strategy to turn the offense around?

Hit the portal
That would indicate there is a spot open.

That's not true. I saw where Dabo said we have room for a WR "IF" we "find the right fit". Been saying that for 3 years and it's netted us nothing but 2 backup QB's that didn't play. Go get some dudes that can start! Ask Brownell if it works!

I seriously agree.
The most obvious example of this working is Keon Coleman.
Taking one player will not hurt a thing.
Are we trying to win championships anymore?

Money is never a problem at Clemson if we want something bad enough, just go check the salaries of the two coaches we just hired for proof of that! I'm glad we're paying them well, and that they're both here, great coaches, but why don't we take the same approach to everything if it means getting us better?

It blows my mind that people believe money is only in play with the portal.
We have had top 10 recruiting classes for years. If we have the money to recruit out of high school, we have it for the portal.
