REALLY unpopular opinion about Bryan Bresee


Oct 7, 2019, 10:43 AM

I want Bresee to come in and dominate. I want his name immortalized in the stone of Death Valley. I hope he plays four years, wins us four championships and gets drafted first overall. I am thrilled that we have him committed.

But.

I have to be honest with myself and with y'all: when I watch his film, there's something I don't like. It's REALLY hard to put my finger on. It might be that his motor slows after he hits the first guy. Maybe he looks slow between snaps. Perhaps he's still getting used to the massive frame he has. There's nastiness you like and nastiness you don't like, and maybe I see that slightly tilted towards the latter in him. It could be the level of physical competition he sees in his one on ones doesn't allow him to show what he can really do, so I'm an idiot for thinkin this. It could be a little bit of any of those, and it could be none of them. I don't know.

My pulse is 100% for several reasons. Biggest one is the ring with a "C" on my finger. I love my Tigers more than life itself. The fall is sacred and nothing takes precedence over Clemson football. And I see what y'all see: a huge dude absolutely flattening other dudes. And yes, I watched him dominate at the Opening and all that. There's just something about watching his game film that furrows my brow and I hope I'm wrong more than anything else in the world.

Any chance anyone agrees with me, or am I the only person in the country that feels this way?

Kid's film is undeniable. He dominates most everyone in his way, regardless of the competition.

And from articles I've read and interviews I've seen, he seems like a great kid from a great family.

Oct 7, 2019, 11:10 AM

Bresee is playing against a significant step down in talent right now. There's not much that High School games tell you about a player like that- so much of it is apples to oranges. You have to determine if he has the tools to be an elite player once he's in the presence of elite coaching and weight training. Also, check out the videos of him at the Camps- going against also-elite players of his caliber. Pretty impressive imo

Re: REALLY unpopular opinion about Bryan Bresee


Oct 7, 2019, 11:11 AM

Could you clarify "nastiness you don't like"?

In all honesty I think the only knock on Bresee could be that he pulls up a little when he has a chance to ruin his competition's day.

That's the only thing I have seen in his film that looks a little off is that it seems like he knows he is bigger, faster, and stronger than all of his high school competition and he doesn't want to hurt anybody.

Based on his performance against comparable competition, that doesn't seem to be an issue when going against other people his size.

Oct 7, 2019, 11:14 AM

most every expert in the field has him as a top ten prospect, and since he has dominated in camp settings against elite talent, and since Dabo and company, who are pretty decent at evaluating both talent and character, want him in a Clemson uniform based on both, I'm not sure what you hoped to accomplish with this post.

I’d write off that feeling, homeslice. Maybe the ESPiN media bias against anything Clemson right now has been a little bit overboard and you’ve gotten caught up in the recent negativity.
Bresee is a good kid with a high motor and elite skills.
So turn that frown upside down and just be happy that he’s coming to Clemson!

I know you, your family, and I know your love for and commitment to the Tigers. I also know discernment is a gift, so you may have a valid intuition. You never know how a player is going to adjust to the college level of play.

However, I believe that Dabo and his staff have a good track record of recognizing and assessing talent. And, that they will coach him to adjust adequately to the college game. If not, they will have someone ready to step in.

Re: REALLY unpopular opinion about Bryan Bresee


Oct 7, 2019, 11:53 AM

In watching video from his high school games I have feared for the safety of linemen, RBs and QBs on opposing teams and have wondered what parents of those players must feel when their offspring play against his team. I have also seen a little of the bad side of his nastiness but like others on here feel he may just have a little frustration built up that he can’t really show his wares the way he would like. I don’t know why any coach would run a play to his side.

Re: REALLY unpopular opinion about Bryan Bresee


Oct 7, 2019, 12:12 PM

I love everything I see about him. If anything, I guess there is a possibility that since he never has been tested by players with his physical ability, he has not had to fine tune his technique. He can stand straight up and just use his hands to brush away his opponent. He may have to work an his pad level and fine tune his technique when he faces better competition, but I am not worried in the least that he will pick it up very fast.

Re: REALLY unpopular opinion about Bryan Bresee


Oct 7, 2019, 1:03 PM

I think it’s the expectations we put on these players. If you watch some of Bresee’s latest highlight videos they aren’t super impressive because no team is going anywhere near him. They always run as far away from him as possible and get passes out quick. We also expect top players to go out and dominate like the 99- rated running backs we used to create on NCAA football games. That’s not how it works.

To make yourself feel better, just go rewatch his summer camp one-on-ones and imaging what he’ll do when an offense has to decide to run towards him or Xavier Thomas/KJ Henry.

Go Tigers!

I don’t know what you’ve seen that reflected the bad side of nastiness, but I can bet I know one thing about it. How many times do you think opposing players want to get a dirty shot at him just to say they did? I’m certain that happens to elite players a lot and at some point, letting it get the best of you is highly likely for a high school senior. Let’s give him some grace as his positives are exceptional.

It is hard to look at HS film and predict future play.


Oct 7, 2019, 1:48 PM

He is a man amongst boys. He dominates in a BIG way. He even dominates at HS all star events. I hope he dominates in college. He will definitely benefit from better competition and coaching. Coach V will do his thing.

I'm thrilled that he will be a Clemson Tiger. I think he will be a positive influence on other Clemson players, especially Jordan Burch, if he joins the team. They could be the Killer B's.

GO TIGERS!

Oct 7, 2019, 1:58 PM

All joking aside...his effort in HS will not be the same as his effort in college. Coaching, in particular coach V, will get him to the best that he can be.

Burch is the one that troubles me. Also plays against weaker talent but showed up to no camps. Has no-showed us and Georgia on visits. I’ve seen him play in person and on the tube. Wasn’t crazy about what I saw. We’ll be great with Bresee and Murphy plus the plethora of other young studs on the DLine. If we can get just one more 5 star I say go with the Flowe!

Do you evaluate players on film for a living? If not I suggest you leave it to Dabo and our coaches, like I do.
Years ago I saw AJ Green play in high school. I proclaimed he was lazy and would be a flop in college. That tells you all you need to know about my “player evaluating skills”.
If Dabo think breese is good I do too.

Arguably the greatest football player of all-time, Jim Brown, was notoriously slow getting up and getting back to the huddle after the play ended. He was playing "head-games" with the opposition.

They hoped he was injured and when he wasn't, the opponents had a "letdown".

I think I see what concerns you


Oct 8, 2019, 8:07 AM

but I'm not sure it should be considered evidence of his value as a player. He seems to really enjoy what he's doing and after a play becomes a bit social in his manner. It could be that he's showing off a little, but it also could be that he's having so much fun and knows what he's doing that he just plays very loose. I don't see it as a lack of effort on the next play.

The only thing I see that he needs to work on is that his pad level is occasionally a touch high. He's able to get away with it at the HS level because of his quickness and strength, but it'll need to be corrected at Clemson - and it will be.
