We need to get some non-ACC analysts to get on board!

Haha...heck, she needs to read her own article, tbh. I do believe this is the same Andrea that on CFB Daily said that "until Clemson has a season without losing to a team they shouldn't (though she must have failed to notice last year), "Pulling a Clemson" would always be a part of the program"...doesn't that make her one of those critics she's talking about?

Obviously she has changed her mind, it happens...especially with women.

People need to stop worrying about what Palmer says, he has nothing to do with what happens with our Program. Absolutely nothing!!!

Palmer saying Clemson needs to get it done this season because this is it. They lose too much. This HAS to be their year.
Don't think this may effect recruiting?

No secret we lose starting QB RB 2OL & prolly Sammy, Morris

Whether or not Palmer says anything... Anybody who knows about Clemson (which I assume means any worthwhile recruit) knows that THIS YEAR is a rare BCSNCG opportunity for Clemson. Losing Boyd, 2 starting OLs, & probably Sammy & Morris is huge, and next year we play at FSU & UGA. Our chances of making the BCSNCS next year are much, much slimmer. Everyone knows that.
Not sure how much any of that matters to recruits since they're unlikely to start their freshman year and could be part of future national-contender play-off teams. Recruits may also realize that departing stars create opportunities to play.

Recruits are always willing to come in on a team that they feel they are good enough and can help reload. See Bama, FSU, LSWho, and any other team that keeps moving on after graduation and early NFL departures. This is college ball, where players have to move on, and not the NFL where players get to stay on their teams. Smart recruits understand this....

What nobody mentions is that we were favored by 13 and won by 12.

What's the problem?!? Why the discussion about us struggling or not performing? Totally unfair since we essentially performed like people thought we would.

What a delightful irony this is. While an ESPN writer is

dedicating an entire article to overturn misperceptions about us, few Tigernet members will notice that this article is more evidence that ESPN does not have an agenda against us. So while Clemson fans are frustrated that many in the media can't seem to realize that we are not the same program we were two years ago, many Tigernet people will still not realize that ESPN is not biased against us.

are not biased against us. And why would they be? The prestige of their jobs at ESPN depend on how well the ACC does. The fact that these two "reporterettes" are assigned to cover the ACC is ample evidence of what Bristol as a whole thinks of the ACC.

David Pollack and Reece Davis publicly called for an end to using the phrase "clemsoning."
Please explain those things to me.
