A couple of his img teammates tweeted that they were sick and tired of him talking about how he was going to sc. Thomas deleted the tweets quickly.

Or them...
If he meant what he said about waiting to see where the two teams were trending, then shouldn't his choice be obvious?

He's 100% playing us. The only thing that is holding him back from going to USC is how big of a dumpster fire it is. If they win 7 games next year he is 100% coot. He's 99% right now. I hope our staff isn't investing too much time into him.

Based on history, there is a better chance they will go 4-8
Feb 14, 2017, 9:56 PM

than 8-4.....Did y'all hear that coot on Walt's show today. Probably the 3rd or 4th time I have heard him call in and say Clemson will lose 4 games next year and that ," Carolina has the edge because Bentley is proven". Walt said," Proven what?". The guy could come to Clemson right now with those 6 games under his belt and still be 5th string. Not kidding either.

It doesn't need to be called anything else. It is what it is, and I do remember that "a rose by any other name, still is a rose" A coot by any other name - well, you get the message. Coots gonna coot!

This! I watched him in our game this past year, and he looked like the little chihuahua who was constantly looking at "Spike" to get some approval about his decisions this year Every play, the little chihuahua would run over to the sideline and ask "Spike" what do we do now, Spike? What do we do now? It was embarrassing, not to mention the #### whipping they toted home.

Per some of their insiders...nothing illegal mind you, they just make sure they drive from Cola once a week to Florence to wash their cars.

muschamp walked into a team at FL that had recruited 15 five stars and 54 four stars over the past 4 recruiting classes.
All he had to do was stay out of the way.

They blocked each other ...during games with other teams . They got beat at home by Georgia Southern .
His acumen as a head football coach is rightly in question.

In fairness, players go to the SEC to play against top-level competition and Georgia Southern was a 1-AA school at the time. Those Gators needed to show out for the NFL and they weren't going to get any competition blocking 1-AA defensive linemen, so they opted to block the 4/5-star player on the field. Sure that player was on their own team, and they lost the game, but they impressed NFL scouts by taking on the challenge.

Some things never change. I've been listening to the same dreams from them for about 45 years (I didn't even know they existed for the first 20 since there was no internet, and their outreach was not much beyond Richland County).

Ah the mythical "SEC Schedule." It is supposed to rise up and smite us every November. How did it work out this year? Something like 51-110 in the hole and I know we got to play the cocklettes, but that also includes No 1 and the SEC's Sugar Bowl team at their place.
"SEC Schedule " was totally exposed this year. 4-5 ACC team would have won or been within a game of winning the lEast. And would have given Bama a better run in the West too.

Reckon it's time most folks accept that there's about an 85% chance he goes to South Carolina. The writing's been on the wall for a while here...there's a questionable personality fit much like we saw with McKinney and ultimately it'll push him other directions.

Let him go. I think we will be more than happy if we snag KJ Henry and Stephone Wynn those two are better than just one Xavier Thomas. If he wants to go to SCar then let him.

Any player should go where they find the best fit. As fans we should support the players who do decide to come to Clemson and not bash any player who chooses another school.

Yeah, I've got a feeling that he will end up at USUCK simply because most of his tweets sound all giddy when talking about them. He just seems to be all about USUCK, they are always in his ear thanks to social media. It's his college choice. Some kids just grow up coot fans. I think he is one of them.

clemson,
would need coots to be 3-9 , home for the holidays, and boom on the hot seat
if it's a 6-6 year for the coots or anything close to that, he will be a coot
just seems he's much more like jaymest / gilmore / swearinger (enjoys the camera)
than he is DW4 / Gallman / Spiller ( graduate - family - faith )
A '18 class headlined by 5 * stars T Law / Zamir / KJ / Wynn would make most forget about XT
(though coots will likely have a top 15 class with dak joyner / dax hollifield / XT / Demarcus Gregory )

I agree I think he's a dirtpecker and has known it for awhile. If we get some of the other guys you mentioned we will quickly forget about him and he can have fun playing in front of 20k at the Birmingham Bowl every year.
