@_dcagle @GregMcElroy They’re not a developmental program though. Their best players over the last 15 years were just recruiting finds that largely did not improve during their time on campus.

This part of #Clemson HC Dabo Swinney's interview with @GregMcElroy stood out to me:
🗣️ “Our process is proven….We are a developmental program. Now, the world has changed. There’s 105 scholarships now. We’ve signed 16 portal guys in six years. You have to use (the portal) now. It’s not a source for us, but it's a resource…. For example, I’m not going to pay a linebacker out of high school more than Sammy Brown. That makes no sense.”
🏈 🐅 What do you think of Swinney's blunt comments?

@SportsCenter I humbly submit this video of my 12 year old making a fantastic save as goalie in Beaufort, SC. #SCTop10

@BarstoolClemson Didn’t know we were squatting with P Pads at Clemson these days….

@votetimscott They will lie and tell you it’s fake. Or they’ll say we all misinterpreted him joking around.
English

Praying it was fake because it’s the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House. The President should remove it.

@OleMissSports Oh NOW you’re interested in the NCAA rules….🙄

@HeauxKiffin69 Your point was about player procurement. He had the roster. The season went terribly, but it wasn’t because he didn’t have the players.
English

Swinney laid out the allegations like it was next-level stuff, only it’s not. If you want to know why Clemson hasn’t looked like Clemson since getting thumped by Ohio State in the 2020 College Football Playoff semifinals, the answer is simple. Clemson isn't competing at the same, whatever-it-takes level when it comes to player procurement.

@freetrinidad @BrianEskew103 Dabo simply recapped the factual events. Then turned his attention to college football as a whole. Where’s the defamation?
English

@BrianEskew103 True, my problem is all of this is happening at greater length to other schools and you’re making it out to be it just Luke. Kinda disgusting

@ClemsonTigerNet Right from wrong is out of touch? I’m so tired of Finebaum’s hot takes.

Finebaum says Dabo Swinney sounds 'out of touch' calling out Ole Miss tampering tigernet.com/clemson-footba…

@willshampu “Mississippi: Riding the free exposure after their head coach dumped them!”
English

@CoachMerrick Clemson: bad in the nil era. While also paying 12 million. A top 3 salary to their head football coach…
English

@CoachMerrick There’s hotlines for the amount of cope you’re reaching for
English
@willshampu “3rd winningest program in our conference in the last 3 years!” You guys should hang a banner!
English

@CoachMerrick This wannabe program has been more relevant in the nil era because of the point made above...3rd winningest sec program in the nil era behind only georgia and alabama. Multiple ny6 bowls cfp semi final. Meanwhile clemson is paying 12 million to struggle to have a winning season.
English
@RebelsVaught Because he doesn’t have the balls to call out right from wrong like Swinney?
English
@DuragRebel This tired old narrative that Clemson “refuses to adapt” reallly makes you look stupid. Clemson has been in on NIL from Day 1 and they just took a bunch of kids in the portal, just like they said they would, if they ever needed it. Where do you get this “refuse to adapt” BS?
English
@Writingwithabi1 @mfarrellsports This guy seems to be projecting…maybe some signs of a few insecurities. What you think @tjmercado ?
English

@mfarrellsports He’s a disingenuous douche. I hope this helps answer your question.
English
@BrennonChapman You know you posted this for clicks. Pathetic take with no connection to reality.
English
@NCAA You should be ashamed and punished for what you’ve allowed to happen to college athletics. Coach Swinney has thrown down the gauntlet. Govern! Create a system of ethics, honor and accountability.

@ATL14ESQ @GreatDinkino @mikerodak @PatMcAfeeShow I don’t think you know the meaning of the word “remotely.”
English

@CoachMerrick @GreatDinkino @mikerodak @PatMcAfeeShow There ain't no Cinderella story coming from the CFP. This isn't hoops.
Not remotely the same
English

Nick Saban to @PatMcAfeeShow: "Would we allow the winner of the AAA baseball league -- the International League, I don't even know the name of it -- would you let them in the World Series? That's the equivalent of what we do when JMU gets in the playoff and Notre Dame doesn't.
"I don't want to start any shit here, but ..."
