‘23 GA SDE Victor Burley (Clemson commit)

We will see. Cade Klubnik is supposed to be really good and there is a major buzz about them on the recruiting trail again
And they have Vizzina following Klubnik. They have a machine running at this point.

We'll see how their defense will do without Venables. I could see them not keeping up their elite pace...but they'll be just fine for some years. People act like they just dropped off in 1 year and yet they still won 10 games and gave the national champs their 2nd best game of the year 😑

They did drop off in one year the train very obviously left the station at Clemson their NIL is trash, their coach has been complaining that players shouldn’t get paid openly in public their offensive system is in shambles now they don’t have an elite defensive mind roaming the sideline. Also the first game of the year is never a true indication of how the season will go that Georgia team got way better as the season progressed but let’s not act like winning 10 games with their schedule was a big accomplishment that’s like saying Kentucky was elite last year. Sure they will win their games based on schedule, but it’s obvious Clemson has taken a step back from elite status
 
Maybe winning means more to him 🤷🏻‍♂️

For the most part, the best teams they have to beat are teams like Florida State, Wake Forest and NC State. I wish that's the toughest teams we had to face all year! With their OC going to Virginia and Venables going to Oklahoma, I'd say they're going to do nothing but go downhill from here on out. JMO

Clemson has built their team on coaching staff stability and high school recruits. They don’t recruit transfers - whether Jucos, Grads, or From other schools. Dabo wants to really control the culture. But he’s losing guys faster than he can develop or replace them. Losing both coordinators at once will be a test.

I completely agree with everything that you stated. What they have going for them especially this season is that their schedule is extremely weak and favors them in every single matchup minus maybe NC State if they are as good as being advertised & Notre Dame.

As my buddy @RDU VOL#14 told me: Don’t EVER bet on NCSU to live up to their ranking in any sport.

They seem to be able to make the CFP with one loss. But the gap has closed in the ACC. They won 4 conference games by less than a TD, and another by 10 points.

He and Joel Osteen have weekly Zoom Prayer sessions
 
Clemsons days of dominance are over. They might win games in the acc but they are not going to be running the table on the conference nearly as easy as they once did. Them days are over.

Lol. Why do you say this? Because they only won 10 games last year?
 
they were lucky to win some of those. That offense was anemic…DJ was worse than JG. Their defense was the only reason they won those games.

And UGA and NCST were lucky to beat them. Fact is they won those games. They won 10 games and that’s considered a down year. I don’t see them being down again.

Lost one of the best defensive coordinators in the game and their offensive system is trash, the only thing they have going for them is their schedule

Lol their offensive system is trash?! 😆

DJU was last year, but their system is very good. Not sure what it has to do with the defensive side of the ball though.

Let's hope these 2 things make a difference. Clemson is just on top right now, tough competition. Not sure we'd nega-recruit, but it so I'd push these 2 buttons (plus I think they may have lost their DL coach?). Doesn't always mean a lot vs the overall program, but it's an angle at least.
 
Hardly shocking. They've led all along.

But 60% still isn't that tops.

Need to keep pushing, but a bit disappointed if we didn't turn the tables after our big visit. While we can't get em all...this one would be a cherry on top!

Their site TI feels good about him as if he told the coaches something. FWIW TI is more accurate than Ana Hickey.
