Wilkins is gone..he's a 1st rounder .
Clenin....maybe....same with Bryant.
Everyone else will return...RR needs another year with a top notch QB...same with Cain.

Different take

I think Bryant and Cain are gone, mostly like Ferrell too. Frankly, I would not blame any of them as I'm not sure another year will impact there draft stock substantively. Cain will not be missed in my view; but the others will be a huge loss.
I also think Fields will look to go unless his prelim scouting review is worst than 4th round. I believe he definitely needs another year and would improve his draft position but I just sense he wants to go to the "League" too badly.
Hyatt needs more strength and size but he may be a 2nd round guy given his upside. If so, he's gone.

ferrel to this date has indicated that he is coming back. Bryant is gone, he is potentially a first day pick. The coaches did an amazing job with him.

Etienne and Feaster are as good or better than Harris and Scarbrough. Our OL has also played better than Bama's this year. I just do not understand what he is talking about.

What makes you say they are better than our RBs?

Feaster and Etienne combined average more yards per carry than Scarbrough and Harris combined.

Tommy Bowden does not deserve to be in the Clemson Hall of Fame.

We can all appreciate the fact that he improved the program after the Tommy West years, ran a clean program, and laid a foundation for Dabo to build it from there. But Clemson Hall of Fame?!?

I have talked to scouts dating back to my recruiting days of the early 90s. They are always around Clemson’s practices and in the press box of clemson games and I have talked to them for 20 years. Almost to a man, they say that a large majority of players considering leaving for the draft could use another year of developing.

Also talk to the Clemson staff each year a couple of times on this subject and they say the scouts tell them the same thing.

Hopefully a good support system. If he declares this yr he will go round 3 or later. Most likely later. There are so many QBs that have more game tape and evaluation. Not to mention almost ALL underclassmen help themselves by staying. There are a few instances where that is not the case. But for the most part it holds true.

Because he would not get drafted as a QB with his game tape so far.
The NFL QB needs to have pen point accuracy and KB does not .
If he wants to be a NFL QB he knows what he has to work on .

Don't buy T Bowden for Tiger HOF. 61% wins and 3 of 8 in bowls, no ACC Championships. Not good enough, imo, unless I'm missing something. The fact that he hired Dabo is good for Clemson, but Dabo gets the credit because he did something with it like 3 ACC Championships, a Natty, and over a 70% win rate all in the same no of years.
