Don’t think we’re gonna see 16 games anytime soon. So, there will only ever be one team to be the first to ever go 15-0. So I’d say this team reached the pinnacle!!!!
But, Dabo always says it’s staying there. Back to back nattys puts the new crop of seniors in a totally different discussion as the b o t b.

1981 Natty to 2016 felt like forever! But, No CU not done

Clemson isn't done cementing it's rightful place among the elite of college football! Nothing last forever says the pessimist! And, that's true! We won't always win it; but as long as coach Swinney is here we will be a consistent winner!
Big thing nobody is talking about: Somebody frame this for me because I might ramble with it. But, here goes: ""The kids who are witnessing what Clemson has done the past 7-8 years "did not grow up thinking Notre Dame, Michigan, Souther Cal and Miami are supposed to be blue bloods of the sport. I think some of the before mentioned schools could get a recruit to sign just on NAME ALONE. No matter if they are currently contending or not. That whole POV has shifted and kids want to be a part of what's going on at CU. What would help sustain this is; in the unlikely case Coach Swinney leaves the program he restored to full lustier; we bring in someone who understands how we win! Culture and doing it the right way and recruiting at a high level. We have the type of clout now to be able to get who we want; so making a good hire would be critical. But, hopefully, that's a long long time away from having to be done. There are kids now who are about to be freshmen in H>S. who want to be Clemson Tigers! Not Buckeyes, Not Wolverines, Not Gators, Not Trojans or Leprechauns(Irish). It bodes well for the continued success of our program for years to come. This thing at this point takes care of itself as far as being able to pick and choose who you let in the program! From coaches to players! It's just a matter of managing it and keeping it up and not settling; because that's when other lesser programs catch you! Complacency won't be a problem under this staff! They seem to really enjoy the process. The journey if you will more than anything. Coach Swinney at one point when talking about the season seemed to get lost in thinking about specific moments throughout the season. Really showed me how much he loves the grind and the development. The shaping and molding of young people and a team! We here to stay in short and b/c of our success we are set up in people's minds for success for years to come! As we are this generations: ND, Mich, So Cal, etc.

I hate to be this way but...

we're at the top of the mountain at 15-0. We've curb stomped every team we've seen since Trevor took center stage. We could drop off a lot and still go 15-0 next year if we keep a our players healthy at certain positions and if we do but have a 10% reduction in productivity we'd still go 15-0.
Still, I can't say it's as good as it gets but I need some help. Can we make a list of things which would make next year better? I started out on this board about the time Dabo became Sheriff and I was a sunshine pumper then. At this point I'll believe anything about Clemson Football and Dabo Swinney so use your imagination cause only a few of us did when he showed up as head coach that day.

Dabo said it again in his speech on Saturday at the celebration. "The best is yet to come". I love it! These are certainly special times. Times that other teams and their fans can only dream of.

The best is yet to come because next year we will be 15-0 and Trevor and company will win all the personal awards.

I totally agree! It is hard to consider this when you look at all that Dabo and Company have accomplished. Let's take a look at the potential product that could be delivered on the field in 2020, when TL is a junior, this should be one of the best offenses ever.
Put this along with continued defensive developemnt by Coach V, as well as, improvement on special teams. I think that the best is still yet to come.
GO TIGERS!

Also, maybe we’ll be fortunate enough to get UGA in the Natty. How sweet would that be to win it against the mutts?!
