Clemson hasn't ran wild cat all year. Used to run it with James Davis and CJ, but not this year. I would personally like a CU vs UT Chick-Fil-A, but I don't think that will happen. CU will go to Orange or Champs. Looks like VT to Chick-Fil-A.

I've been in here for 10 minutes reading some very interesting threads and now this one. Bubble Screen, small athletic offensive line, and zone blocking have all been used in defining the offense for 2009. I hope CLK didn't call CTB for advice. Maybe I got that one backwards, haha. Good Luck!

Small athletic OL and zone block.....Sounds familiar. Two point stand too? Didn't work for CTB. Was actually in here browsing to see if there was anything bout Dan Brooks, but found this thread interesting. I think every offense stinks in the spring not just UT. It's a mind game the coach's...

Eight four star recruits and five three star recruits. Clemson lacking volume this year because of coaching change which put us down to 26th nationally in recruiting points, but our star avg. of 3.62 puts us in top 10 in nation. Not bad for losing several commits when Coach Bowden left. One...

That's the talk here.

Monte Kiffin was the guy that allegedly turned in Danny Ford and the Clemson program to the NCAA for recruiting violations back in the ’80s.

Read my earlier post. That was Dabo Swinney's issue with Koenning's defense. We played soft. I wouldn't be surprised either way in regards to the Chavis hire. It's hard to tell anymore with coaching searches.

Be Careful what you say. Spurrier could have said what he did because of what Monty did to Clemson back in 1982. Monty Kiffin and Danny Ford have a little history and it put Clemson on probation for two years.

"Recently, however, his teams (John Chavis) have been known more for lining up their secondary players anywhere from 5-to-15 yards off the players they are covering, and the defense has struggled. That was one of the issues Swinney, who pushes a strong, man-in-your-face, attacking scheme, had...

This will be interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work out based off what you just said.

Not sure why Kiffin didn't come to Clemson. Terry Don really quiet. Sounds like you may know why. All I know about Kiffin is that he was the OC at USC and went 5-15 at Oakland. (Who wouldn't fail there?) TN is for sure an upgrade from Oakland. Swinney is 4-2 as a college head coach and his...

You are correct. Almost dead last on third down, but in every other defensive category in top three or four in conference. Not too bad. I don't think he is a downgrade from what we had.

TigerIllustrated.com reports John Chavis is interviewing at Clemson.

Coach Swinney won't allow "prevent defense". Swinney very aggressive right now. Since Coach Swinney has taken over as interim and now official head coach, the defense isn't laying back waiting for offensive mistakes.
