No worries


Aug 17, 2012, 8:37 PM

Scott & Morris were both there. If it was dangerous, they would not let them do it.

FWIW, that is nothing. I used to jump off Route 11 bridge and YMCA Bridge all the time.

I disagree...

players part.

I was there earlier this summer and it’s safe (plenty deep) unless you are clueless in the water. I can guarantee you their lives were more in danger driving over there from the Clemson campus.

Its maybe dump for folks that doesn't care for high octane adventure of challenging their courage for the excitement. I use to love it, and have been there done that most of my life, or half of it anyway. Things of that nature can be very dangerous, and should never be done alone.

Pretty cool way to build team unity. It's easy to forget these guys are kids sometimes will all the expectations heaped on 'em.

Good to see them having fun.

I think it was a player band. I think it's worth noting...and agree with you. But I don't think that was officially part of the deal.

coaches need to stay in contact with recruits... nothing wrong with what is going on..

Players are banned from twitter not coaches
Jeff Scott is recruiting coordinator and everything he posts is to attract recruits to Clemson.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Jeff Scott is also the recruiting coordinator...


Aug 18, 2012, 8:15 AM [ in reply to The only problem I have is that the team swore off social ]

Social media is a huge recruiting tool now and these videos show what a great time can be had at Clemson.

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.


No worries guys


Aug 18, 2012, 1:21 AM

RELAX....this is perfectly safe. I've done it probably 200 times, and seen kids like 5 jump off. The risk is definitely worth the reward. You know what recruits will think when they see this? "I get to hang out on the lake WITH the coaches and have fun?!!" Good, clean, fun that is. What should they be doing? Smoking pot? Some of the old farts on here look at walking to the fridge to get a coke as dangerous. LIVE LIFE. The only regrets you have are the things you don't do. Good for them, and very nice to see them build team unity. This kind of stuff goes a LONG way. Trust me, it did for me.

Yes. toward the north end from the ###. I think on the left


Aug 18, 2012, 9:54 PM

But I am not sure. It has been 20 years and I was probably inebriated during about all of those "boat rides". I do know that it was not hard to find. We always passed right by it 'to and from' the Jocassee ###.

If u are going up lake towards ###. When u go past Hwy 11 bridge stay on right side of lake. Take the first channel to the right. It will be narrow and u will come to a island. Go to the right side of island and u will be at cliff. Enjoy jumping we do it all the time.

Just off of Falls Creek landing on Oconee County side of lake. And they had a ball as even Coach Swinney jumped the rock!!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Reminds me of sliding down the ### into Hartwell from Lake


Aug 18, 2012, 5:07 PM

Issaqueena back in my younger (college) days. The water in Issaqueena was cold as all get out even in summer, while Hartwell was bath water. A few times there were guys that would dive off the walkway down into Hartwell. Never had enough beer in me to do that!

2024 white level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I am with you, but I had a few friends bounce off the bottom


Aug 18, 2012, 9:42 PM

of the ### jumping off. Lots of bruises and broken arms. Jumping off the cliff at Jocassee was a lot safer( climbing up from the bottom...not from the top). It is very deep and straight down. Keowee( where they were) was fum too,but it was always crowded.
