What Clemson coordinators said previewing Charlotte


by - Assoc. Editor -

Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables and co-offensive coordinator Jeff Scott spoke to the media Monday previewing Saturday night's matchup with Charlotte.

Venables on the defense:

“We have done some good things, but we have a long way to go,” he said. “You look at our first three games and we had Georgia Tech making the move from the option to the spread and then Syracuse moving to a new quarterback, so there have been some extenuating circumstances.”

Scott on the offense:

“I feel like we are ahead offensively of where we were at this time last year. Just going back and looking at everything, I love our balance,” Scott said. “I hope we can keep that up. And I am pleased with our explosive plays through three games. But with that said, we are still leaving some plays. I think that is even more encouragement for our guys. And we need to be more efficient on third down and eliminate the turnovers. But the quality of a good team is how you improve every week and I think we are doing that.
