Agreed! Okay to believe what he said, but you just do not say things like that for public consumption. I hope he learns to treat those comments with a little more consideration in the future. Do I agree? Maybe, but now that the guy has been called out, he will be on a special mission to make sure we know how good he is. No upside to what Jadar did here. Hope Dabo gets the word out better in the future.

He wants him to try and "prove" himself in the air, so JJ can add to his int totals!
This doesn't bother me only because he called out J.T.'s specific weakness. Might make J.T. want to prove that he isn't weak in that area...

to force passes just to show us. This is stupidly undisciplined bulletin board material, regardless if it's true or not.

we did play and beat the "Heisman" winning QB earlier this year. Obviously you never want to put "bulletin board material" out there, so I agree with you two. However, looking at it from his point of view, he may have thought it was clear to everyone that LJ is the most dangerous of the QB's we've faced this year. He wouldn't be wrong IMHO (as well as the Heisman voters).

I completely agree when the same sort of comments were made about DW4 last year we all blew up. He should let his play speak.

Frankly, I don't see anything wrong with Jadar's assessment...and I even think JT Barrett would agree. He said everything respectfully and simply gave his point of view. He never, ever disrespected JT, gave him his props as a runner and quarterback. I can assure everyone that JT Barrett will not become a better passer overnight because of these comments or that OSU will scorch us through the air for 500 yards. JT Barrrett is a perfect fit for how OSU runs their offense. Limit the run and force him to throw will definitely help Clemson's chances.
I often think that we take someone's honest assessment and try to make it more than it is...for which the media is the worst. JT was not slighted one bit. Numbers and statistics don't lie. I wold also bet that JT would say Jadar is not the best Safety he's played against this year...for which Jadar should probably agree. I am of the belief that Bulletin Board material stems truly from disrespect, not honesty...and you just can't find any disrespect in these comments.
Go Tigers! Beat Ohio State!

Out of character for our team to provide bulletin board material.
Dec 27, 2016, 6:30 PM

While true, that's just something you don't say.
Similar to if they said our OL is ok but not great and they've seen better OLs this year. Why would you poke the bear?
It probably means nothing after kickoff honestly, but just not the smartest comment.

Overly concerned with "bulletin board" crap and neither are the Tigers! A few comments from players will not lose this game for my team. Turnovers might but comments from the players will not. Go Tigers

OSU is not a cupcake game that the team should just brush off. I believe that Clemson will win but every player needs to show up. Adversely if their entire team shows up it will be a game. Don't give the best player on the team reason to be better than his best.

Give him a break......in the last year the Clemson defense has played against all 3 of the Heisman QBs invited to New York. I would say he has played better QBs.
I heard other players mention not letting him run. Keeping him in the pocket and making him pass.

games.... nothing at all.... nothing.
nada.
when they manage to cover a TE consistently
and not lose the freakin' Natty,
then they can talk smash.

He wasn't talking trash. His comments were a well presented excerpt from his film study. They did not display any kind of inappropriate attitude. As a matter of fact, in watching, it was so low key, it could have been an impartial sports commentator giving their thoughts.
On the other hand.. Oklahoma's comments in the two previous bowl games with them were good examples of trash talking..with an attitude. Even your comments display an attitude..
GO TIGERS!!!

And do you honestly think your "strong" words mean a darn thing?
On a side note note, do you do cocaine? Seems like you have drug induced outbursts a good bit, where you posts these streams of conciousness taking yourself way too seriously. Simmer down wildman.

Barrett was the first sophomore to ever be a captain at Ohio State, a two year captain he played the second glad including overtime, against PSU in 2014, with a torn MCL, He is the heart and soul of the team, the vocal leader in the locker room. This is big news, believe me it's big news in Columbus.

Stupid. Zero to gain, everything to lose by saying stuff like this. IF we're somehow able to contain Barrett, it only feeds the previous narrative that Barrett was off this year. If he does well, Jadar becomes the butt of a joke. just dumb...Barrett is a top 5 talented QB in the nation, without a doubt. He had a subpar year, no doubt, but he's an incredible talent and the last thing we need to do is give talented players the reason to show up better than they ever have before.
Jadar has been a pretty good, serviceable safety this year. He's not in the position to start calling out top-level talent.

Totally agree. Let your play do ur talking. Frankly I don't think it was bad but it's all lit up on the media. They've spun it already. Just shut it down. Osu team very professional and complementary of Tigers. Follow their que and ur head coach.
