I really don't want to see Ellington returning kicks.

More than enough weapons to handle that job.

Re: I figured Hopper would be an option for KO returns.

My personal opinion for Hopper is a RS. We have enough receivers to do what ever ball handling we will need for those skill positions. IMO, red shirting Hopper now makes the best since for the future of Clemson FB. Gooooo Tigerssss!!!

Kinda sorta not encouraged by this final fall report.

A lot sounds unsettled. Sounds like we need to get in-game experience to really see where we are.

no matter the school...you don't learn as much from pre season practice as you do from the first game, the following week of practice, and the second game.

Some famous coach used to say

You see the biggest improvement between game 1 and game 2. Just wish that game 1 for us wasn't in the Georgia Dome.

Our offense is more talented than the defense, IMO

Which means if they each play to maximum potential, our offense should win out. Doesn't mean the D is bad, that's just Clemson's strength right now.
I'd be suspect of a fairly new and young D that could crush our offense in 2 weeks of practice
