"Coach Swinney told me this would happen and assured me he wasn’t going to change the offense, so I shouldn’t worry about him hiring an offensive coordinator that runs the wing-t.”
Tucker is always pretty good with his quotes. Props for the Wing T reference.

This is the quote that makes me go "humm". I wonder how long ago Swinney told him that would happen? If he means just in the last week or two, or if Swinney has been telling people for longer than that...

Ray ray and deon came for dabo and jeff Scott but mainly jeff Scott

Players really bond with jeff Scott and he gets a ton of talent in by being straight up and honest with them. Deon especially he has a really close relationship with jeff Scott and even has pictures of them together on twitter and other social media. The interesting part of it all is how it seemed some want jeff Scott to be the guy, you have to wonder how that plays into the decision. People don't seem to realize jeff Scott has been learning under chad Morris since the day he got here and chad has been preparing him to one day possibly take over the offensive coordinator duties. People act like all he does is coach reveivers and doesn't know the first thing about offense and It couldn't be farther from the truth, where do you think all these young new offensive coordinators that run the his malzahn type offense come from? They all train with an established coach like malzahn or chad morris then they become an offensive coordinator either at their school or elsewhere. Losing jeff Scott would be a much bigger blow than chad morris, I would expect a pretty significant decline in recruiting but I truly believe eventually it's going to be dabo, Scott, and BV as our coaches and I am pretty excited for that day whenever it comes. I hope jeff gets to call the bowl game and then we can go from there

It sounds like Jeff Scott has earned the job, but I wonder what play-calling experience he has.
How much did Chad involve him in drawing up plays?

Scott has alil experience. Began his coaching career at Blythewood (S.C.) High and won a state title in his first year and the program’s first year. It is believed to be the first time that occurred in South Carolina high school football history. They had a pretty sick offense there too.

Selling and promoting the school and the system speaks volumes for the program...if all we had to attract student athletes were Ol Ball Sack and the SEC, we would have all the commits to begin to look elsewhere...

Re: New Story: Recruits react to the departure of Chad Morris and hope Jeff Scott gets OC

Hope Dabo promotes from within. Jeff Scott is a Clemson grad and has been around Coaching all his life. I guess that his Dad might of had something to do with that. The biggest plus is he is a great recruiter, and a great judge of talent whether polished or raw. I hope Dabo hires him, because he would definitely be missed on the sidelines as well as the recruiting trail. I also would be willing to bet Chad is waiting to see if Dabo hires him. If Dabo skipsover him and hires from the outside, wouldn't be surprised if Chad talked him into coming to SMU.

FWIW - Morris' departure doesn't affect my commitment either. I'm still ALL IN.

I was honestly worried about some of these kids following him out the door! Good to hear they are still committed.

I'd be more worried they just reopen their recruiting to other schools. I can't really imagine kids from the SE switching from a top D1 school to SMU that not only sucks, but is 900 miles away to boot.

If Chad Morris had been talking to SMU since the beginning of the season, and he had communicated this to Dabo, could it be.possible Dabo told Chad to get Jeff Scott more involved with ALL phases of the offense ? Kind of like a quickie internship and or evaluation of his abilities as a Offensive Co-ordinator. Sure hope Jeff Scott gets the job. Players like him, recruits like him and so do a majority of the fans. Plus, he is a Clemson Grad. Doesn't get much better than that ! GO TIGERS !!!!!!

Coach Scott has been under coach Morris since Day one knowing he would be leaving for a head coaching job.The way I understand it he has helped draw up a lot of the plays after he understood Morris' offenses.He is one of the best recruiters and his record speaks for its self. Great choice. Go Tigers

Ray Ray actually posted an ALL IN reply to one of Artavis' retweets that he's looking forward to playing with him (Tay) on the team next year...Tay replied back to Ray Ray that it's gonna be fun!
Yeah, we fans think it's gonna be real fun to watch too  - GO TIGERS!

Hardman was the only hard case but had some intelligent things to say.

I think it's no doubt Jeff Scott has the job or it would've been him going to SMU as Chad's OC.

The Same Question
Dec 2, 2014, 3:19 PM
|
|
The same question was posed last year to Deshaun, and his answer was just like the rest of them. His commitment is to Clemson, and a coaching change wouldn't mean anything to that commitment. I wish Chad the best, but these guys are much better off staying with this organization. Can you imagine giving up what we have ahead of us for a program, that is a dumpster fire? Me either! These guys aren't coot commits, you know. Our guys do have a brain, and they use it.
