Did Nuke say anything negative about Clemson?

If he didn't, then what would motivate anyone on here to start going after him personally? Many are simply objecting to his sentiment, which is obviously fine and dandy. But some have taken it further and are questioning his character and his intelligence as well. Those doing the latter are acting as a cancer in our fanbase.

Are folks chapped because he doesn't acknowledge the opportunity that Clemson provided him?
Not sure why he has no need for Clemson any longer.
Was he not treated well in his time here?

For such a minor "offense" I would consider that

under the "benefit of the doubt" category.
What benefit does a Clemson alum get, if not for a little extra cushion from going after his character/intelligence?
Nuke has AT LEAST earned not to have his character and intelligence questioned for his opinions that do not attack Clemson specifically. Why can't we just respectfully disagree with him and leave personal stuff out of it??

no.. nothing directly towards CLEMSON.. but, towards college, in general.
my only problem with his thoughts towards college is that he's biting the hand that fed him..
and whether he felt like he was or wasn't "the guy" (compared to sammy and, martavis).. he was equally as important to this program. to me, his "I felt like I was the red-headed stepchild - second receiver on the team. It was Sammy (Watkins) then me," Hopkins told Foster. "Sometimes I was the third. I felt like I was supposed to be that guy, so I left school early." comments are childish and selfish.
with that said.. i'm sure everyone has said something childish or selfish.. so, i'm not knocking nuk..
he was a star WR for a major D1 program that was very successful while he was here.. and, a lot of that success had to do with HIM. so, i just feel like, no matter what he thinks of college in general, HE should be thankful for the opportunity that was given to him by that very same institution that he verbally disrespected.
that's all.

Well, your post is reasonable. But there are several threads

which are bashing him as if he was not a Clemson man.
And WE should be just as thankful to him as he should be thankful of Clemson.
