I want to thank Tajh for violating a pet peeve of mine.

“You may not agree with his verbiage but if that’s what HE felt about the situation, then that’s how he felt,” Boyd wrote.
“Verbiage” is currently one of the most bastardized words I hear amongst those attempting to feign high intellect. In this case Tajh could have said “statement”, “wording”, or even “language”, but he certainly didn’t mean “verbiage”, which refers to an excess of words.
TL;DR summary.....verbiage isn’t a synonym for words.

Are you inferring that Boyd is not intelligent?

Supposably your a tiger fan, and for all intensive purposes I'm sure you are, but this is just sad.

Intelligent enough to play both sides of the argument and not chop down his Clemson honey tree..
I didn’t mean to make him an escape coat.

not sure why he felt like he had to go chop his down. You leave with some kind parting words, thanks for the opportunity, I wish everyone the best, loved my time here blah blah blah and he's got an easy fall back in the Upstate when pro football doesn't work out. At the very least Lake Keowee Dodge would hire him as a spokesperson.

Dabo clearly liked the guy. After his inevitable stints on NFL practice squads and a couple CFL seasons, he could have been the next Brandon Streeter here, but he’s completely effed that up.

Of modern inaccuracies in usage. The word never meant that.

I would have misspelled it had I written it down. Misspelling a fancy word sort of ruins the whole high intellect ruse.

Verbiage's most likely definition is verbal garbage. I agree with you. Kelly's statement was quick, straight to the point and had no wasted words.
