Did Clemson have elite talent last year?

Cause their 4 year recruiting rank last year was the same as our 4 year recruiting rank this year. If they had enough talent to win last year, we have the talent to win this year or next if we have a great coach.

And I believe Chip Kelly is a great college football coach. His record at Oregon is my proof.

Yeah they had pretty close to elite talent they had the 9th ranked team and second behind fsu in their conference. We were 14th and sixth in our own conference.
 
Impressive. He definitely doesn't let people get away when he gets his hands on them plus he takes pretty good angles. Hope butch doesn't take him off the field.

I think we have to play the 4-3 for most of the game.

Why can't 7 play safety in that set?
 
Agree about not enough talent. Not sure what people see in chip Kelly. He's like butch in some ways.

Chip Kelly and Butch Jones aren't even close to being on the same level IMO. I think Kelly could take this team and go at least 9-3. Would have beaten Florida and pounded UMASS into submission.

Clemson is ranked lower in team rankings because they sign less than other teams. Based on average ranking they signed a top 5 class for the class of 2017. The year before they signed 21 recruits, the only school in front of them that signed that amount or less was USC(21). And every school in front of them except Uga(23) and Auburn(24) signed at least 25
 
SIAP. This is PGA tour and UT grad Rick Lamb’s wedges.

As soon as he bites on a play action or makes some sort of mistake he'll be replaced with Jumper. Or at least that's how it went down at Florida.

Clemson is killing it. Their run right now is better than ours in the late 90s.

But it does give me hope. Clemson's only advantage over us (albeit a big one) is they are in a weaker top to bottom conference (in normal years - the SEC looks bad right now).
 
If we don't end up with Kelly or any other "home run" hire, I'd be perfectly content with Venables. Excellent X's and O's coach and an excellent recruiter. Coached under Snyder, Stoops and Swinney and likely would draw a top staff. Yep.
