That's insane.This is off topic, but anyone that was on yesterday and saw the post about 2 hunters getting shot and killed on Reelfoot lake. It was 2 young men in their mid 20s. They shot some swing ducks and a 70 year old man in another blind got mad about it and went to their blind and killed 2 of the 3. The 3rd fought him and got away. The shooter is still at large. Extremely tragic and uncalled for. Over some dang ducks. SMH
#1: Chad Morris had his own identity before taking the Clemson job. He was a long time high school coach in Texas.
#2: Jeff Scott was second in line on that offensive staff even though they shared a title. Elliott has called plays the entire time.
For me it’s all about buying into the person that Tony Elliot is. His resume isn’t going to knock anyone’s shoes off but the way his players and people in the industry respect him and like him it the most important thing to me. I think tony Elliot is a modern version of David cutcliffe when he was hired by Ole Miss. i will fully support him and hitch my wagon to him if he is our guy.I think we're trying to convince ourselves with really no evidence that this would be a good hire. But, I'm trying to keep my same mentality, that if DW sees it in him, he has a great track record.
we say that ever time we have a new coach. lol. and this situation is arguably the WORST situation left for the new guy, but he's supposed to be competing by year 3?Some are saying it’s going to take 5-6 years to be competitive. By year 3 after bringing in a solid class you should be competing
Because he's a completely different person and coach and his future success or failure as a head coach has nothing to do with the other two.So how many offensive coaches from Clemson who worked under Dabo are there? I know of two:
Chad Morris: disaster
Jeff Scott: lol, 1-8 this year, disaster.
Why do we believe that Elliot would be different?
I’d argue butch had by far a worst roster. Dooley didn’t recruit a single offensive lineman his last 2 years.we say that ever time we have a new coach. lol. and this situation is arguably the WORST situation left for the new guy, but he's supposed to be competing by year 3?
the roster is a shadow of its former self, and this class is far from a complete class, we'll be starting over on the 22 class.
but by year 3....compete or....else?
c'mon....isn't that line of thought getting just a little tiresome?
