Rod clearly one that had nothing to apologize for

Hot Rod has nothing to apologize about

Not his fault Chad stopped feeding our backs the rock

Hot Rod has progressed so much over the past 2 years. I appreciate his feeling the need to apologize, but he did nothing last night to warrant an apology. Kid played his #### off.

I agree!! My favorite play of the night was when Rod burned Clowney and picked up good yardage around the left side. Classy kid and great teammate!! No apologizies needed Rod.

probably our best offensive call all night , never even tried it again.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sad we cant get paid adults to hold themselves accountable..


Nov 25, 2012, 8:27 AM

They just blame it on "mistakes" and the OL not being "tough".

Pathetic.

Rod doesn't need to apologize.
Futhermore,I don't want an apology from Pres.Barker,David Wilkins,Terry Don Phillips,Dabo Sweeney,Chad Morris,Brent Venables,any other coach or player.
F the apology.Just fix the problem.
I thought we did that when Bowden left.Apparently not so!

Nope. Batson is still there and will be next year. Who's responsible for that? Doesn't the buck stop at the top?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Standup guy, but the players aren't the ones who need to...


Nov 25, 2012, 8:37 AM

apologize.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Why didn't we utilize him and Ellington more on toss sweeps


Nov 25, 2012, 10:44 AM

and screen passes? Hell, anything to neutralize the SC pass rush.

This was, by far, the worst play calling game of Chad Morris' tenure. Absolutely pitiful!

Re: Why didn't we utilize him and Ellington more on toss sweeps


Nov 25, 2012, 10:55 AM

but I as some of you have implied, I can clearly see that we needed to run the d@mn ball a lot more...Ellington & Hotrod both had reasonable success & that would have given the D some much needed time on the bench...

Re: Why didn't we utilize him and Ellington more on toss sweeps


Nov 25, 2012, 5:35 PM

it would have slowed down the pass rush

it would have kept Boyd off his back

it would have given Boyd an opportunity to hit shorter passes, taken advantage of their aggressiveness

it would have given Boyd a chance to hit those long balls that he is soooooo used to hitting and you could see him thinking "if i can get it down the field, we would be back in this" The level of competition that we have been playing was not the same as last night - It's been way too easy, and made us way too complacent.

it would have probably guaranteed coach Morris the HC spot at NC State.

Message to Hot Rod

I like the Seersucker jacket, and I appreciate the way you played yesterday and this year. You persevered thru the years and brought it to the field when called upon.

Now your life is not about football. Finish strong in the classroom, get your degree and work hard for yourself and your family. Good luck & best wishes ...

The pitch play right at Clowney seemed like a play CM would have went to more. RM ran the ball really well.

ignore these negative people. You have done great this season. TY for the hard work. You are the best!

I doubt there was a single player that didn't give it their best effort. Shame on anybody who would think that any of our players or coaches would not give all they have in these games. They play their hearts out, and then some on here act like they choose to lose. Unbelievable!

Maybe some of us didn't see what you saw. I'm sure that not one player on our team didn't do what they could've done. But the play calling wasn't that good at all. It was like the play calling was to challenge Clowney to beat us. And he did.

Of course, I don't know what is in each player's heart, but in all my time as a player in high school and at Clemson, I never felt like there was anybody, including players, coaches staff, etc. who didn't give their best effort in a game. Sometimes the plays don't work, or you get beat by a more talented player/opponent, or a play or an assignment gets botched, but I never walked off the field thinking somebody went about their job in a half arsed way or just decided to quit on their teammates, and that didn't happen Saturday, either.

You played great Hot Rod! Thanks for all your hard
