Officially I am coming out of the closet "I am a Pumper"

I am: 1. Optimistic about the future of Clemson. 2. Loves Clemson University unconditionally. 3. Donates Money to Clemson. 4. Supports High Academic Standards. 5. Supports HIGH Athletic Standards too. 6. Refuse to withhold donations, or ITAY dues. 7. Refuse to Boycott Games. 8. Will attend as many games as possible. 9. Will wear my Orange Clemson stuff with PRIDE.
Sure I want to win every game in every sport and I hate losing to South Carolina in anything. And losing to them 2 consecutive years in football makes my Christmas holidays tuff since most of my in laws are Coot fans. And yes I want to win ACC Titles, Big Bowl Games and another National Championship too. But I will not waver on my support for Clemson University.
Many of you may think publicly slamming or trying to humiliate TDP, Barker, Dabo, the players or anybody else who is part of the Clemson family is the way to accomplish your goals I think is wrong. Plus it shows a total lack of CLASS for those of you that do choose this path. There are other ways of achieving one’s goals with integrity and class.
Me personally, I choose to believe that Clemson People are the best.
So it’s official I am a PUMPER and proud of it.

level. I am withholding my Clemson Loyalty Fund donation in protest. I sent an email (like he will give a $hit) to Barker telling him, and will INCREASE my IPTAY by that amount.

admin only understands bottom line $. as long as that looks good, they'll always scrape the bottom of the barrell hiring the dabos and brownells of the world. be a capitalist and stop rewarding pitiful performance from the admin. tough love is the only solution to what ails clemson.

are related to the current state of college football which has contributed to Clemson's lack of success. But would have to look up the entire history of Clemson Football to understand that??
If you have then you will know the 1980's were Clemson's most successful years. But unfortunately we were placed on probation 2 times with in those 10 years. But Clemson also had 6 mediocre seasons even under DF. Plus the ACC was not near as competitive as it is now. But prior to the 1980's Clemson was not a big time Football program.
Fans seem to remember the best of the 80's but neglect to remember we had some struggles too.

Plus except for a brief period in the 80" and the late 50's we have been an average program at best. Don't know where these people get the idea we have always been a major power. Oh yea, forgot about 1948&49 too.

I leave the coaching decisions to the Administration and support who is the current coach(From Pell to Dabo)
I leave staff decisions to the Head Coach
I always cheer, support and pull for the Tigers to win
Never do i publicly denounce a Clemson coach

enjoy Clemson Football. They have way too much information. I miss days when you attended the games complained about a loss on the way home and then moved on with life.
