New Story: Secondary Challenge


Mar 22, 2015, 7:01 AM

 
Secondary Challenge

The Clemson defense lost several key pieces off of last year's team, including leaders in the secondary in Robert Smith and Garry Peters. However, safety Jayron Kearse expects that group to be even better in 2015. Full Story »

I cannot tell you just how much this pleases me


Mar 22, 2015, 8:20 AM

Kearse is taking the leadership position, while McKensie is doing his usual, "quiet assassin" role. Both bringing the rest of the guys up with them.

The part I like the best though is how the offense and defense are challenging each other but critiquing each other too so they learn. THAT is TEAMWORK.

It shows that all the way up and down (coaches, staff, players), no one is being selfish or insecure, nor arrogant. Usually, one of those will seep in and folks start holding back information so they can get an upper hand to make themselves look good at the expense of another. If they can retain the culture of the team comes first and show honest respect for each other this could be a special, special era in Tiger football.

I feel truly blessed to have lived through the Danny era and now this era. Just wow!

MacKensie after the OU phenom, highly touted by ESPN


Mar 22, 2015, 8:55 AM

Receiver shot back at MacKensie's noodling him. From the post game locker room interview with MacKensie, the OU guy had the nerve to reference his own stature in the stat book and ESPN's ranking of him as a top 2-3 receiver in the nation as a come back at Mac.

Mac felt compelled to let him know that #@$% don't mean nothing and he will understand why after today.

Needless to say, Mac put his $ where his mouth was. ??

Yeah , Shepherd got shut down . Alexander put him in his place , told him what was about to go down and then made him like it .
Our defense is going to be a strength as long as we are blessed with Venables and Reed and our other defensive position coaches. This is going to be a great year , can ya get with that ?

I freaking LOVE this team & these players!!!! D will be TIGHT, AGAIN! :-)


Mar 22, 2015, 12:10 PM

Everything these guys are doing & saying is a testament to doing things the right way, sharing in the team & learning to get better...instead of just trying to one-up the guy next to them.
everyone helping & teaching each other, picking up one's slack & being accountable will take us to the top, if they can continue to play together & communicate...
our coaches have done one helluva job!!!

Go Tigers! Orang&White game is almost here, & my birthday weekend...break out the tailgating & spot the d@mn ball :-D

Tailgating spot?....


Mar 22, 2015, 2:54 PM

You coming up from the lowcountry?....

Midlands maybe?...

2024 orange level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yep, he was so good he would be the #3 WR at Clemson


Mar 23, 2015, 9:14 AM [ in reply to MacKensie after the OU phenom, highly touted by ESPN ]

according to the numbers last year. Oh, and he is #3 behind a freshman.

A star at OU makes you a scrub at Clemson. Chump!

Here' the interview of Mac describing the event

Enjoy Mac next year because odds are that, it'll be the last year you see him in a Tiger uniform.

You mean THIS year...

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

No mention of Blanks.


Mar 22, 2015, 3:38 PM

He's been out a while but he certainly should be able to fill in the gap at strong safety. Anybody see any reason why he wouldn't be a starter, assuming he can come back from so much time off?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I was wondering the same thing


Mar 22, 2015, 4:07 PM

He has so much potential

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


WHAT?! Blanks was absolutely garbage at safety the


Mar 23, 2015, 2:25 PM [ in reply to No mention of Blanks. ]

year before last. Plus, we've recruited past him. At best he's a depth guy now.

Mar 23, 2015, 2:34 PM

Clemson’s top freshman performer in 2012 and a starting safety during most of the 2013 season before suffering a season-ending injury ... has 86 tackles, two tackles for loss, one interception, two quarterback pressures, nine pass breakups, two caused fumbles and two recovered fumbles in 1,038 snaps over 24 games (18 starts) in his career.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH THE COOT SPEAKS AGAIN

Was watching Mackensie in practice go at it...


Mar 22, 2015, 4:48 PM

a couple of Saturdays ago. He talks some smack, and he backs it up.

The other guy that REALLY stood out to me was Trevion Thompson at WR on the deep ball. He's going to be a monster to try & cover this year.
