Sunshine


Apr 15, 2018, 6:32 PM

I have read on this board that TL does not like being referred to as “Sunshine”. I don’t know if this is true, but I would certainly understand if it is, as I would feel the same way if I were him.

However, I am constantly seeing supposed Clemson fans refer to him
as “Sunshine” on this board as well as on other social media platforms.

What I am wondering is (a) if someone knows for a fact that this really does get under his skin, and (b) if it does, why a true Clemson fan would insist on calling him this.

Would someone who knows the facts on this share them?

Thanks and Go Tigers!

football and you'll know why TL doesn't like it. This is the ultimate insult to him.

They will learn to call him B-1 Stealth soon enough, after they become victims of the precision ordinance he drops on their defense.

Agree 100%. That is only one of the reasons not to like it. I’m not looking for those, I am curious whether it in fact bothers him or if it is just something a lot of us have assumed.

You're fighting the good fight my friend. I'd lose my mind if I was one of the greatest QB prospects of all time referred to as a slack jaw Lamechicken.

I should add that I have also seen people who I know for certain are as true Clemson fans as there are referring to him as “Sunshine”. That is why I am trying to find out for sure, because I don’t want to make a stink out of it if, when it gets right down to it, TL couldn’t care less about it.

His name is Trevor Lawrence, and I'm sure he won't mind if the fans call him TL. It's short and it isn't insulting to him I'm sure!!!

If you are a Clemson fan and you call him Sunshine, you are no better or different than a coot fan that knows nothing about giving due respect to another person. That's right, if you still call him sunshine, you are as low bred as a coot!!!

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Not just Sunshine, but any nickname; his name's Trevor...


Apr 15, 2018, 8:02 PM

and he seems to prefer that name, the one his parents gave him.

Happy Sunday all.

He clearly states he doesn't like Sunshine and really doesn't like nicknames in general. This interview is during his Jr year and he says Chase Brice is a good friend.

Absolutely, I wouldn't call him sunshine even if he liked it, it sounds girly or sissy to me, and it's a name I wouldn't like for our QB or anyone else on our team!!!

Lazy?

Ron Bass - the longhaired kid in the movie "Remember The Titans" was nicknamed Sunshine.

Ron Bass played QB for the gamecocks.

Just Lazy.

Apr 15, 2018, 11:45 PM

Sunshine coming out but I didn’t know he didn’t like it an had no idea about the video where he said he didn’t like it. Y’all forgive me, I won’t refer to him with that reference again. I know what it’s like to be called a nickname because of your hair. Back in the day with the blond mullet I had many call me Rod Stewart and hated it.

Ps- never knew the coots had a player called sunshine and I grew up In Anderson S.C.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention guys!
