Spoiled and ungrateful

Some of you are unbelievable and have forgotten how great Clemson has been. Dabo built this great program and he will fix it. Very few teams can make the playoffs 7 years in a row, I'm still shocked at how great Clemson has been. Appreciate what has been accomplished and have faith that Dabo will fix it.

Face it, few things in the world are more "What have you

done for me lately?" than the world of college football. Any coach knows this when he signs on.
We have gotten used to "Best is the Standard" here, since that is what Dabo brought us. Now, that is clearly no longer the case, and the efforts at changing it are either not there at all, or falling woefully short. It just is what it are.

Not really

Don’t pi$$ on my back and tell me it’s raining. Just last week Debo was assuring us the offense didn’t stink. Guess what ….it does. From the first series at CLT - QB1 looked slow and lost. 3 and outs kill your defense when opponent can sustain drives and we can’t.
Play calling is trash - teams know what is coming.
If you are going to get paid at the “top of the pay curve” expect high expectations. Even Dabo says every year is a brand new season so is he going to return his pay this year? Nope so quit making silly coach speak excuses and earn the $

It happens in all of sports. Teams will have a down period. Except Bama.
Dabo will get it fixed. If fans are this upset now I could imagine how miserable they were before Dabo turned it around. I remember hoping to be bowl eligible. The excitement of playing in their first ACC championship game.

Newman- I would completely be fine with an offensive drop off. To where we are in the top 50. To be sitting where we are as one of the worst offenses in CFB cannot be tolerated.
Not with everyone we had coming back.

Either “Best is the standard” or it’s not

The offense is putrid. It would need to get a lot better just to stink.
Can’t run, can’t block and the downfield passing game is non-existent.
Trevor covered a lot of deficiencies and made Tony Elliott a lot of money. He’s done nothing — NOTHING — without otherworldly quarterback play.

Dude, we were battling for a No. 1 pre-season ranking. We were no. 2 as it stood. The coaches played it up like they knew we were good.
Why didn't the coaches know or why didn't they tell us that we had major challenges to overcome?
It is the mis-management of expectations that have us all pi$$ed off. Cut the BS Dabo, and be straight with the fan base.

Emphasis on how great Clemson HAS BEEN.
Dabo is being paid 8 million to make Clemson great now. Instead he's done nothing but watch as the offensive staff continue to steal checks from Clemson.

I’ve been a tiger fan since Charlie Pell was coaching. It’s who I am. I can also see when the team has issues. I and most REAL Tigers fans will voice those opinions. Ignoring a problem, doesn’t make it go away. Blowing sunshine doesn’t fix issues. It’s obvious and we just lost to a middle of the road team. We almost lost to GT last week. I thought that would shake things up, but it didn’t. Perhaps we should wait until we loose to BC to voice our concerns?
GO TIGERS!!!

Hopefully it doesn’t take struggling with FSU and the Coots to change things up. We won’t be ranked by that time so may be it will be the expectation - hopefully not.

This offense is atrocious on a level that we have not yet seen. This staff makes waaaayy too much money for this to be the product they put out onto the field. Those who have given countless minutes and dollars into supporting this program deserve better. At the end of the day, your production/results at your job has to line up with your compensation. Despite what some may believe, college football is a business and, moving forward, strong business decisions must be made or this program will continue to spiral.

The numbers the offense is putting up are “high schoolish”. Bench somebody to get their attention if it is needed - to hell with the NIL - a series on the bench does not hurt us with the way we are playing - if that upsets somebody to hell with them - let them go play at the high school in Columbia!

The Coots will beat us if there is not major improvement. And, we see no indication that major improvement can happen.
