I stumbled on this video from YouTube. It’s Coot New facilities promo.


Oct 17, 2019, 3:56 PM

I have had the good fortune to have toured CLEMSON’s new football complex and watch a tour of SC’s new facilities. It’s like comparing CLEMSON ( a Ferrari ) to SC ( a upgrade on a Ford pinto) There is just no comparison. You walk into our facilities and it feels and smells of success and a standard of excellence.

My take on the gamecocks facilities is they are a combination of Chuckie Cheese, Academy Sports, a hotdog stand and weird looking chairs from the futuristic 70’s. The only thing missing as shag carpet and some lava lamps. There weight room reminded of how you might decorate a kids bedroom or the play room. The pool tables looked like 80’s style tables from 5 points. Are recruits going to WOWED by the new coot facilities, IDK. But they certainly did not impress me. Maybe I over expected because of the way Boom and Ray Tanner were boasting about the new complex.

Now getting back to our new complex, The dining facilities alone were quite impressive with tables and chairs not a bar and bar stools that you might have seen 20 years ago. Each athlete has his own meal plan to suit his position and his physical needs. Surrounding the back of the build is a really nice place to hang with other players, coaches and family. I think you can grill out or play basketball. The new facilities are awesome because if I am a recruit I can go down the slid then bowl a few games, play virtual golf, among many other things. There are places where the players can even take a nap. It is a place where players can hang out, get to know each other which helps to build the culture of Team and Family. Players can do so much without leaving the building or the campus. You can even run down the hill inside the new complex.

And our weight is mind blowing because of its size and equipment. Coach Batson gave us a tour which make SC’s weight with their garnet colored washers and black colored bolts look like a second rate fitness club verses an overwhelming huge weight room designed to build boys into men. As large as our weight room is it still has that family like atmosphere too it.

I am not sure if this video has been posted before but after watching I just had to post it for others to see.

As you pull into this area of campus you are immediately impressed by DV and The Oculus as you drive over to the new football complex. If had was a recruit DV, The Oculus and New Complex would definitely get my attention. And that’s before meeting Mr. Recruiter himself aka Dabo Sweeney and his staff.

Go Tigers!

I'm being totally honest without my Clemson Bias. I didn't see one thing that I could honestly say that I like that better than ours, nothing, not one thing. To be as a matter of fact, I can't believe that they cut so many corners, and Texas HS has way better facilities I believe than what was shown in that video. Was that just a partial video, or was that all that they have. If that was it, what I saw was cramped up spaces with a lot of new junk thrown in there, and for that guy showing it and saying some of the best anywhere, he should be invited to come and see what Dabo's plans built at Clemson, and I'm sure he would feel embarrassed when he walked back into that barn they built in cootlumbia!!!

Totally agree. I did not see anything that would jump out at me as a recruit. You note they did even bother to address an area for their 1 ACC title their 1 SEC east title or George Rogers Heisman Trophy. They stayed clear of historical accomplishments because the very few. They did not even show their indoor practice facilities.

Not impressed at all by gamecock promo. So imagine what recruits are thinking.

If recruits have been to both, they say that the coot's place isn't even close to what Clemson has, and if they do think the coots are just as good, they are a coot, and they will sign with the coots!!! !!!

A recording studio is a nice addition . I'd think most young kids would want to play around with that .
