'13 VA RB Derrick Green (Michigan commit)

Back in '05, the announcers for your new SEC brothers (A&M) called it the most intimidating atmosphere they have ever seen in 35 years of college football.

My point is that there are about 10-15 places that are top level atmospheres. Which one you prefer, depends on what color shades you wear. Clemson is most certainly in that top level group.

Florida State quarterback Chris Rix, “Florida was loud in the Swamp. But the loudest, not only stadium, but the loudest place I have been around in my life was definitely Death Valley. I was yelling at the top of my lungs in that first series, and I couldn’t even hear what I was saying.”

Yeah, LSU is pretty loud too

And then surrounded by beautiful landscape.

Disagree completely. I have been to multiple SEC games and enjoyed Clemson every bit as much if not more than all of them.

I think someone is getting their Death Valley's mixed up....

I'd love for Tennessee to get into that "Clemson" category, but I'm losing hope.
But seriously, I think the staff is gonna be on this guy all season...and who knows? Lane fell into our lap when Dabo got his knickers in a twist. And that was without Coach Graham on staff.

To do that, we would have to let the money flow

Clemson is shady

I do not have to get over myself, I have seen probably 25 plus games there and feel I can make my opinion about the game day atmosphere. Sorry I do not agree with you and i also never said it was bad. But it is not the best I have been to. Please tell me when it became a board rule to agree with other posters.

You may also need to learn to read, because I never said it was not something cu did not sell. You actually were the one that went off on me about bringing up gameday and made some comment to me about. You actually made it like it was not your selling point when I said it was at every college

If you can not handle people thinking what you do about Clemson maybe you should stop reading the board because it MY opinion and nothing more

TW, you are most certainly entitled to your opinion, and I have never said Clemson had the best atmosphere. I certainly don't agree with your point that "comparing Clemson to a traditional SEC school on game day is not close." That's a joke, IMO, but if you truely believe that, then more power to you. We'll agree to disagree.

Why have you been to 25+ Clemson games, if you don't mind my asking?

they're coach seems like he might have a minor case of nutcase

Kentucky, Vandy and Miss St. are in the SEC so I guess Clemson can be compared to an SEC school

have to have a few cupcakes. need those W's to send a sec school to the national championship. and everyone knows what conference wins that game

[palmer103]

Anyways, originally came in here b/c this is a great recruiting board and wanted to get a different perspective on Green.

I'll refrain from gettin into it with all the other Clemson banter, and can try and provide some information from our side of things, when applicable. Looks like there are a few really good players that Clemson and Tenn have made the final cut with. I think both schools will enjoy very high classes this year.
