"Horrible! Same as Last Year! No Hope! At least 4 L's"

"Don't feel very good about this team!" Etc., etc., etc.

Some folks have already decided this season for us! Yipes why even buy season tickets! It's the 2011 edition of Clemson fans.

Too bad I'm still a 1980's edition of a Clemson fan. You want realistic-depressing crap, etc. go read the political news or economic news. You want excitement, dreams and hopes--be a true Tiger fan and dream big and think good karma for these Tigers! Yes there is a LONG WAY to go and I am willing to give the coaches the time over the season to put this team together. If Chad Morris put 60% of the O in over the short time he has been here I can't wait to see it when it is completely in and fine-tuned. Positive defeats negative anytimein my book! I can't wait for the season. There is nowhere better to be than in Clemson's Death Valley on a football Saturday with big hopes and dreams for my team! But that's just an old 1980's edition of a Tiger fan talking, so take it as you will.

GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am right there with ya posted this earlier:

If anyone really believes that the the spring game is a tell tell sign of our season then we may as well throw in the towel now we have no chance to beat Troy let alone have a successful season.

I for one was pleased with the QB overall. With us playing split squads on the offensive lines the protection was not the greatest in the world yet our turnovers were minimal and our QB's played with great poise considering the pressure. All of you that doubt Tajh, like I have said in previous posts he hears the doubters and he feeds off it. This young man is a winner and a leader and when this season is over you will not have any memories of last year.

The running backs were impressive and I have all the confidence in the world that by game time we will be 4 deep at running back. I know the coach, a proven winner at everything he has taken on, and already he has all of the RB's playing with a sense of urgency.

Now where the games are ultimately won and loss. THE OL and THE DL. Both showed flashes of dominance but we have to acquire depth at these positions. The starting 4 on defense is formidable, the starting 5 on offense it has the looks to be very good. The big concern is with the pace our offense is rolling at we have to have someone to spell someone else here and there just to overcome fatigue. Talking with Coach Caldwell he is sure we got the talent to develop depth and he assures me some will step up come Sept.

My Evaluation:

Offensively: we are going to be very difficult to stop and should be able to score. We have plenty of weapons and capable players at every position. It is going to be very fun and remember relatively young!

Defensively: We are going to be very fast and very young. The first 2 games will be perfect to get a feel with all the new starters to mainly get over the adrenaline and be able to play football. I feel like we will go thru some growing pains especially early with our schedule but by the end of the season we will be very good. If we can stay injury free early and develop depth this team could be very very good.

I for one cant wait for the season to start and I know an ACC Championship is there for our guys to go get it, Hard Work = Champions.

GO Tigers!!!!

When you divide your team to play against each other

I don't think you can tell one way or the other...
