Will lead to us missing out on his brother who is a stud defensive end. Big Dave said people were yelling at him dj sucked as he left the stadium yesterday.

That’s just stupid, we better realize DJ & his brother are so talented, we need to be patient, DJ is a winner who is very talented. He will work until he has his grasp on greatness, we need to be patient, he will win a Natty with Clemson too!

I agree. Dj has all the talent in the world. As a fan base we are so spoiled and lash out at anything. Even the pick 6 against uga Dabo blamed on Ross. His family is giving everything they can to the Clemson family. Hard to be all in when you have so much venom coming your way.

There’s a difference between venom and deserved criticism.
Venom is yelling at DJs dad that he sucks. That’s ridiculous and unacceptable. Whoever did that should be embarrassed.
DJ deserves criticism, which is what most people on tnet are doing. Not spewing venom. He has not played well, that’s undeniable. His footwork and pocket presence has been terrible and his accuracy has really suffered for it.
DJ is now a professional athlete. He is open to criticism, especially on a sports message board where discussions about the football team are the main reason most people read them. It’s not unreasonable.

We all want D.J. to be successful. He hasn’t been nearly as successful this as anyone expected he would be. Pointing that out isn’t “hate” or “venom.” It’s the truth.

Agreed. He showed what he is capable of last year. I think in those two games, he played like he had nothing to lose. If he played poorly, well He’s just a young kid, expectations are kinda low anyway; and if he played well (which he did) everyone will be pleasantly surprised. Big difference this year, it’s his team, and it’s all on him. Tons of pressure. DJ WILL GET BETTER. The game will slow down, he’ll develop a little touch on his throws, see the open guys better.

We probably weren't going to get him anyway. That said, DJU would be critiqued whereever he played. Its not hate at all. Everyone is pulling for him. He knows he needs to get better. Dabo lost his mind screamed at him forever on national TV.

How is it not hate when Clemson fans yell to Big Dave that DJ sucks? Are you kidding me? It’s pure hate. And I, for one, am embarrassed by the behavior of some of our fans. I’ve been a Clemson fan since 1965. Graduated in 77. And I’ve never seen the like from Clemson people. We’re acting just like Gamecock fans and it needs to stop. Have high expectations? Absolutely! Be critical of poor play and coaching? Without a doubt. But getting personal with 18-22 year old young men who are putting their heart and soul onto Clemson football is inappropriate. And if this is how “fans” are going to behave, I wish you’d quit being Clemson fans and adopt Georgia or SCU. We are better than this! Go Tigers!

There are a few drunk jerrks in every fan base. It would happen anywhere. Its the nature of sports. Its an anomaly though for the Clemson base. Big Dave gets tons of love.

I agree with you 100 percent willy1505. It sickens me to think of DJUs family having to hear such trash. They are parents first and foremost and I'm positive it is heart breaking for them to see their son struggling on the field where he has always enjoyed success. Come on Tigers. We are better than this. Do the right thing. Support this young man. For that matter support each and every one of those young men! They are not perfect but they are doing their best and that's what matters! Hearing your hateful venom spewing across the field will not help them play one bit better. And please remember each and every one of those young men have parents who love and support them no matter what happens on that field. Please treat them with the respect they deserve as well. I'm a ride or die Tiger fan and I am horribly embarrassed by this awful behavior!!!

IMO Clemson pulling DJ's bro
Sep 12, 2021, 1:28 PM

Wont come down to fans.
I think MU is USC's to lose based on what's he's already said he wants and that's an "in" into the music industry to become a music producer.
ATL and Nashville aren't close enough for Clemson to sell him on and I've never heard of Clemson having major music label pull unless someone knows something that hasn't been discussed before when this topic came up.
Things could certainly change and yes you DON'T have to be located in those traditional music places nowadays thanks to the internet but IMO it's no contest that if you have the opportunity to make those connections, (and USC has ties) you go with who can help you make those connections.

I am 78 years old, been to many Clemson games, home and away, and the fans attitude has not changed since I began going to Clemson games at age 9. When we win most fans are happy. When we lose most are unhappy. There has always been a core group of fans who "knows more than the Coaches" and voice their displeasure. Social media has exacerbated this "yelling and screaming." Hopefully the young men and Coaches at Clemson understand that the vast majority of Clemson fans appreciate what they are doing "win, lose or draw." I do. Go Tigers

Whoever said that to Big Dave must have had their liquid courage titers running high or else need to donate some testosterone to the Gamecocks for their upcoming visit to Georgia.
I've seen some isolated fans be rude to the opposing fan base, but very rarely to our own.

If one fan yelled that at Dave then that is one too many, but every fan base has a few jack azzes and I know that Dave knows that too. Even the negative posts here on Tnet in no way express the overall support that all of our players get from Tiger fans. It boggles my mind at the kind of person that would yell that at someone's parent after a football game.

I believe big Dave is sowing the seeds for a future transfer of DJ more than anyone telling those words to him. That’s just my opinion. But I’m usually correct.

Doesn't seem like it will be a factor if even true. Here is his tweet.
Big Dave Uiagalelei @DUiagalelei · 4h My son Matayo got to meet Clemson commit Toriano Pride Jr. Friday night. Their schools played each other and both understand it’s bigger than the game. Love the respect they show each other. It’s a long way before Matayo makes his decision but you can say it, potential teammates.

Oh wow, that's interesting. I did see Dave's tweet about being yelled at and considering all the unkind remarks I've seen on tigernet, I do believe it happened. Wasn't DJ ranked the #1 or 2 QB coming out of high school? He's going to be a great qb for us and I sure don't want all the unkind comments to hurt our chances with Matayo.
