TCI's "Inside information"
Feb 12, 2014, 11:12 AM

So below is TCI's "insider information" about football located in the insider report. Can anyone tell me in any of the multiple paragraphs below that contains something with "inside information" or just random babbling to get more clicks on their website. What a joke. The only time they get "inside information" they copy it from Tigernet or Tigerillustraded. I'm not visiting that nonsense no more.

Well Deserved Vacation
After signing another top 13 class the Clemson staff finally got some time for vacation. The coaches had plenty to celebrate as they hit the road including an Orange Bowl victory, another 11 win season and another great class. In less than a month spring practice starts so there won’t be much rest as the staff prepares for another season.
Championship Class?
Dabo has built Clemson into a top ten team after five years as the head coach. Now he looks to take the Tigers to the next level, a top five team that has the opportunity to win another national championship.
The 2015 class could be the class that helps give Clemson the talent to reach that level. The Tigers did a great job of reloading in 2014. Now they have the opportunity to sign a top ten, possibly top five class in 2015. Clemson is positioned well with many of the top players in the nation, and of course already have one of the top four players in the nation on board.
Expect to see many of the other current 2015 Clemson verbals rise in the rankings as the season progresses. All six of the current commits could be outstanding players at Clemson.
Dabo and the staff will be selling to the prospects how close Clemson is to being a top five program. They have the proof on the field to show just that. Dabo no longer has to sell a vision. He can now sell results. Add that to what’s in those Hills and Clemson has plenty to sell.
Competition Elevates the Game
Clemson has three quarterbacks that are working their tails off from everything we hear to win the starting job. The competition is going to be fierce. The good news is whoever wins the battle this spring and in August should be playing at a very high level to win the job.
Also don’t be shocked to see Dabo and Chad play two quarterbacks, especially early in the season if there is no clear cut No. 1. In fact we believe we will hear more of that talk during the spring and heading into camp. One way to try to keep as many of the three happy is to convince them that the Tigers will play two quarterbacks this season.
The coaches have a huge challenge and it will be hard not to have one of the quarterbacks disappointed and even upset coming out of spring. It should be one helluva battle this spring and it all starts in just a few weeks.

information....I will remedy that....
It is time for this week’s Insider Report.
We hope everyone had a great weekend and we apologize for the delay in getting out this week’s report. It has been a crazy weekend for me. Better late than never, right?
McGibbon Injury
Opening day is just days away and one of the questions will be can Jon McGibbon make it on the field this weekend. Jon suffered an injury as he ran into the fence. He had to get several stitches in his knee.
As of Monday they things were still day to day on if Jon will be able to go opening weekend.
Sunday Starter
We know Clemson’s lineup for this weekend’s opening series. Daniel Gossett will of course get the ball on opening day. Matthew Crownover gets the start on Saturday.
The big question has been who will get the start on Sunday and we have that answer. Jake Long will get the start Sunday. Long had to redshirt in 2013 after transferring from East Tennessee State.
Long pitched well last summer going 2-1 with a 2.02 ERA in the Coastal Plain League. In his last season at East Tennessee he finished with a 2-9 record and a 4.38 ERA.
It is a big honor for Jake to get the weekend start beating out a number of quality pitchers returning this season.
The Road to Omaha Begins Friday
There is a buzz around the Clemson baseball program this year as we have reported for the past few months. There is an air of confidence you can feel when you talk with the coaches or the players.
The road to Omaha starts this weekend. Hopefully the snow will all be gone and melted by Friday so the fans will make a good showing to support this team. The Tigers should find themselves back in the top ten as the season progresses.
The goal is always to make it to Omaha, but this is the first year in the past few where the Tigers have an “Omaha team”.
The road to Omaha will be much easier if the Tigers can have a great regular season and earn a host for both the regional and super regional.
Clemson has a very deep pitching staff. Some of the starters last season may move to middle relief work this season because of the depth. If the Tigers can get better run support this season it should be a great year.
If you’ve followed TCI the past five years you know we cover baseball better than any other Clemson media outlet. We have plans this season to ramp up that coverage any more with a season that will hopefully end with a great trip to Omaha in June.

1. It's not "Inside information", it's "The Insider Report". Those are not the same thing. 2. You didn't include the whole article. 3. You can't expect "inside information" every week, especially if you're just looking at the football part of the article. 4. I'm not affiliated with TCI, I just don't understand the utter hate from some people.

Just fyi- If I find things that I do not like, I do not do them or go to them. I guess that you just have to be smarter than a coot to understand that concept though.
