Re: Conference perspective from a Clemson family

1. When my grandfather went to Clemson, we were in the SIAC.
2. When my father played form Clemson, we were in the Southern Conference.
3. When I went to Clemson, we were in the ACC.
4. By the time my daughter graduates from Clemson, we most likely will be in an expanded Big-12.

My family history is a great example that throughout Its history, Clemson has changed athletic conferences when the necessity arose. Clemson orange runs through the blood of my family, so I and my family will support Clemson no matter what conference we are in. I only want our leaders to keep Clemson relevant as a football program on the national level. If that means we go to the Big-12, then I say kiss the Tarhole loving ACC goodbye!
