Brandon Streeter - Clemson QB Coach

Brandon Streeter, QB coach at Clemson. There's only two games left. Enos got promoted. I don't see any NFL guy coming back and working 24/7 compared to having 7 months off.

What say you?


Brandon Streeter


Came to Clemson as the recruiting coordinator and quarterbacks coach in December 2014 after serving three seasons (2012-14) as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Richmond.

• Quarterbacks coach-of-the-year by 247Sports in 2017.

• Coached Kelly Bryant in 2017. Bryant was a Manning Award finalist and Davey O’Brien Award semifinalist.

• As recruiting coordinator, he spearheaded Clemson’s consensus top-10 class in February 2016 and 2017.

• Coached Clemson’s first two-time Heisman Trophy finalist, Deshaun Watson. He became the first player in FBS history with at least 4,000 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards in a season in 2015, and ended his career in dramatic fashion as the Most Valuable Offensive Player of Clemson’s 35-31 win over Alabama that delivered the school’s second national championship in 2016.

• Watson was a two-time recipient of the Davey O’Brien and Manning awards, given to the nation’s top quarterback. He also won the 2016 Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and 2016 Bobby Bowden Award.

• Helped the 2015 Tigers to 11 straight games with at least 500 yards of total offense, a school record.

• Six of the seven teams he worked with as an offensive coordinator from 2008-14 finished the season in the top 25 of the FCS poll. That included the 2014 Richmond team that entered the FCS playoffs ranked No. 16. Five of the last eight teams were conference champions or co-champions, and Clemson has finished in the top two in each of his three seasons.

• Helped the 2014 Richmond team to a 9-5 record and a bid to the FCS playoffs, as the Spiders reached the second round.

• Guided Richmond to a top-20 finish in passing offense each year from 2012-14. That included a 314-yard average, eighth-best in the nation, in 2014. The Spiders also averaged 461 yards per game, 19th-most in the nation, and were second in third-down conversion percentage (51.6) and third in first downs (332).

• Richmond was seventh in the nation in passing yards (328) in 2013. Virtually every Richmond individual game, season and career school passing record was established during the 2013 season. The 2012 Richmond offense was 20th in passing offense and 21st in scoring offense. The Spider offense saw five players earn All-CAA recognition.

• Streeter served as quarterbacks coach at Liberty for six years, the last three as offensive coordinator. In 2011, Liberty led the Big South Conference in passing yards and pass efficiency.

• In 2010, Liberty averaged 36.5 points per game, a better mark than in 2009, when the Flames led the nation in scoring (36.4). That Liberty team won the Big South Conference title for a fourth straight year.

• Served as a graduate assistant at Clemson in 2004 and 2005, when Dabo Swinney was an assistant coach. Streeter worked with quarterback Charlie Whitehurst during those two seasons.

• Three-time letterman at Clemson from 1997-99. He was Clemson’s starting quarterback the last two years. He was also a three-time member of the ACC Academic Honor Roll.

Would be a great hire.
 
I could see this being the choice. at this point I have two scenarios in my mind that have occured:

1. We have hired a position coach from Bama or Clemson and waiting till after game to announce

2. We really don't have anyone yet and are picking through the leftovers

I think it is part of 2. This guy would not be picking through the leftovers IMO.

But I don’t think we have anyone yet considering this article:

Man, that is an interesting take on my comment. I did not say the leftover choices were bad hires (your words not mine). Just like food, leftovers can be very good. A pot of Chili is always better after it sits a day or two. It doesn't change the fact that its a leftover. OC search is no different, if a candidate is left after all these other schools have hired then they are by definition a "leftover". We either have someone on Bama or Clemsons staff or we are trying to find the best possible leftover.
Ohhh come onnnn... you know you were implying a negative connotation with leftovers!!! You must be an attorney... haha...

Word around here is that Streeter is really loyal to Clemson. He loves Dabo and the staff and appears to be biding his time to be their OC when Elliott/Scott move on. I don't see it happening, but money talks....

A million dollar raise says he would punch Dabo on the way out. Lol
 
This makes a lot of sense.
Please NO, I don't see the love for him.....he done well at places but moved too much and it's too complicated, same thing happened to Fulmer when Cut left and he hired Clawson, if he had of went with the Michigan staff that year would of been awesome. This is in response to Canada...

This isn't a Canada thread though 🤔

How does this guy fit into what Pruitt has said he wants out of an OC? Just curious. I dont know anything about him , but presumed he ran a spread based , read option style offense , mostly out of the shotgun or pistol formation. Not that CJP wouldnt run that scheme , it just seems contradictory to what he has said about power running game and not running the qb.

The spread is now what nfl is these days. The pro-style offense is the spread

Systems come and go, we need very good players regardless of style. Pull more in JP!
 
NFL guys don't get seven months off.

Some NFL guys sleep in their office to save commute time.

Somewhat due to the long hours, Steve Spurrier departed the NFL for the easy life as a SEC Head Coach.
We should get Steve! SOS to The Hill
 
I hope Coach Pruitt is open-minded and smart enough to realize and understand it is better to score points and win than to bleed time off the clock, punt, and lose. Personally, I would be satisfied with Streeter as OC.

Some people don’t care about the money. Guy is at his Alma mater. To some that weighs more than money

Elliot and Scott are at their Alma mater too. It'll be hard to break up the boys but it all depends on a man's ambition.
 
This would be a home-run hire! The guy can coach AND recruit! It's the only hire that would make any sense as to why a hire hasn't been announced yet?

For those worrying about Clemson being his alma-mater, forget it. See this article from two years ago...the guy wants to be a head coach. This is the next obvious progression.

However, it seems too good to be true, which is why I'm not getting my hopes up!lol

Return to Clemson giving alum a chance to grow as coach
