Not spin at all. Two men sitting down and talking

about a problem that arose. Obviously you are not in business. These things happen and the way it was handled was right on the money.

Yea, that's what one should take from the article.

I guess if the rest of it doesn't support your end of the world/program feelings you should stick to that mistake.

There's no such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people who ask questions.


What about the Article?


Dec 9, 2006, 4:27 PM

I knew Davis was going to come out and make a PC statement once TB had a chat with him.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

So you think he's still mad and going to cause problems...


Dec 9, 2006, 4:34 PM

...or something?

Sure...that's a better conclusion to come to.

I thought it was spelled "y'all"


Dec 9, 2006, 7:18 PM

you + all = "y'all" due to the entire word of "all" being included and only a part of "you" being included.

Just bein nit-picky, here! Don't mind me ;)

Re: After Further Review, Davis Okay With His Role In Clemson's Offense


Dec 9, 2006, 9:35 PM

Looks like the 19 year old was modeling the behavior of his head coach. I recall last week Bowden mouthing off about working in a place where 7 wins gets you fired as opposed to working for a place where 7 wins gets you a half mil raise. Davis isn't only one who needs to learn when to keep his mouth shut when media is around. We can give the kid a break. The Spin Doctor knows better.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Ummm . . .


Dec 9, 2006, 9:54 PM

Regarding the 7 win thing, Bowden was basically taking a rather humerous shot at South Carolina. He was, unequivocally, NOT complaining about high expectations at Clemson. On the contrary, he went to great lengths to say it is a GOOD thing that expectations are so high at Clemson.

Say what you want regarding his PR style, I don't think you'll find many people who think Bowden was complaining about high expectations.

And yes I agree that we can give James a pass on this, especially since:
(a) he's an extremely hard working, competitive guy who let his well-earned frustration (over tough losses after an extremely promising early part of the season) get the better of him (if we can all spout off eternally here on T-Net, a player can be forgiven for one or two little frustration-infused comments)
(b) he very quickly put things back into perspective after talking it through with the coaches.

I hope, as others have mentioned, that this thing can wind up bringing our guys back together with renewed focus, energy, and pride.

Re: Ummm . . .


Dec 9, 2006, 10:38 PM

OK I'll concede the motive for the comment to be a shot at South Carolina. However, in the context of the article in which Bowden was asked about thoughts on not getting a contract extension, the comments could very easily be perceived as backhanded toward athletics administration. Furthermore, any shot taken at South Carolina in the wake of a loss leaves a wide path for interpretation, particularly in light of the general feeling that we were significantly out-coached as well as out-played. The high road seemed a better alternative.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Hey, I never want to lose that game, but in reality I will


Dec 9, 2006, 11:15 PM

accept a 75% winning percentage. Check it out because some of my heroes (Howard and Ford) were no better than that. Remember two of our best lost to the coots...the Sugar Bowl team and the team that beat Penn State in the Citrus. Let's get a bowl win and move on to next year!
