It's not that unusual to get updates on former Tigers.***

I know. It's as if shunning players who left the team


Jul 31, 2016, 2:37 PM

is some kind of punishment for them, and in some way a badge of honor for those doing the shunning which proves true fandom. It's a "He's either fer us, or agin' us!" mentality, and I don't get it.

Re: because its interesting to see what former players are up to***


Jul 31, 2016, 2:16 PM

Agreed. I always like to hear what has happened to former Tigers.
What's the problem?

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

To each his/her own. Im more into hearing about past players


Jul 31, 2016, 2:20 PM

That are in the nfl, graduated, may be left on good terms or had to leave for health reasons. Not players that didn't like it, weren't team players or were kicked off. Its no big deal to me what the reason folks either do or don't want to see it. Its just a matter of opinion.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sometimes this site is ridiculous


Jul 31, 2016, 10:10 PM

Td'ing everyone putting an opinion on here. Saying this is my thought but I'm fine with everyone else's opinion as well and bam td. Get a life whoever does it.

like it or not, he is a Clemson alumnus

same with Chad Kelly and Jimbo Fisher. They have all worn the uniform and sat in university classrooms as a student at one time in their lives, even if their experience was incomplete or unsatisfying.

Am I missing something? Jimbo Fisher?

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

"Excuse me? I don't go down to your work and tell you how to flip the burger!"


Yes, Bill Wilhelm recruited Jimbo to play baseball.


Jul 31, 2016, 3:07 PM

It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.
_____


Fisher, 50, left his father, a West Virginia coal miner, and mother, a high school chemistry teacher, to enroll at Clemson. He planned to play baseball for the late Bill Wilhelm but returned to West Virginia after one semester. He was a standout quarterback at Salem College and never left football.

“Life happens,” Fisher told The Post and Courier. “It was a great time; I enjoyed my time at Clemson. It’s a great school. Fun. I was a small-town country boy, never been away from home, had a lot of work to do and practice. I left and it turned out pretty good. It was a great experience.”

Who knows? With Fisher at Clemson maybe Swinney, with ties to the Bowden family dating to his playing days at Alabama, ends up working for Bobby Bowden at Florida State.

Alumnus?

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Re: Alumnus?


Jul 31, 2016, 3:23 PM

Actually, they ARE using it correctly. Here is the official definition: An alumnus (/??l?mn?s/; masculine, plural alumni /??l?mna?/) or an alumna (/??l?mn?/; feminine, plural alumnae /??l?mni?/) is a former student or pupil of a school, college, or university.[1] Commonly, but not always, the word refers to a graduate of the educational institute in question.[2] An alumnus can also be a former member, employee, contributor, or inmate, as well as a former student.[2][3]
So, unfortunately they are alumni. Even if we deem them unworthy!

I stand corrected!


Jul 31, 2016, 4:42 PM

Technically speaking. I still consider an alum to be a graduate.

Other players are "former players"

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


And technically speaking, you're still ####### wrong.***

Most schools consider you an alum if you attended classes ..


Jul 31, 2016, 5:53 PM [ in reply to I stand corrected! ]

Aug 1, 2016, 8:04 AM

So, UNC has no alums?

Re: Alumnus?

Dang - we need a new word for Alumni that actually graduated from CLEMSON.

This revelation begs the question: If you just attend a few classes at CLEMSON, can you be in the ALUMNI Club? I have the confused.

I'm adding an addendum to my window decal: CLEMSON UNIVERSITY ALUMNI - GRADUATE

I know a fraternity brother of mine who was at Clemson for 6 years, yes 6 years, and came up a math class short of graduating. That dude is kind of a legend and definitely an alum. I think it depends on the situation. I don't consider Priester an alum. His heart was never there.

Since Jimbo is an alum...


Jul 31, 2016, 4:44 PM

Does that mean he is allowed to root for us?

I agree that this may not be a story for this board. I am sad that he is having issues, and truthfully, I am sad he had to leave (or chose to leave) Clemson. He could do no better than Clemson, for a lot of reasons, but I want no young man to fail. I hope he gets his life in order and has a great career, both on and off the field, wherever he lands.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Just to show coaches were right to separate him from team


Jul 31, 2016, 2:16 PM [ in reply to im lost is he coming back here? if not why is this a story? ]

after only one game.

We get news on Swag Kelly & Mike Bellamy all the time ( and that's just a couple I can think of ?? )__ and there is always a ?????????? where is G.Hopper / Kaleb Chalmers / Dane Rogers / Jefferie Gibson -- JJ & Ammon ---- inquiring minds want to know ??? ___________ it's all about Tiger Football !!!!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

To be quite honest about it...


Jul 31, 2016, 3:38 PM

I could give a rat's #### less about hearing from those who leave on bad terms or asked to leave for any number of ancillary reasons, other than to confirm they are obviously continuing their "losing" ways........obviously not realizing what an opportunity they had on the first place. Only hope is that they mature and finally figure it out.....just saying. ??
