Well Nick, I will be one of the first to say that I thought that we would be in deep doodoo if something happen to DW4. But now I will say that I was very surprised at how you performed today, and it was easy to see that you have prepared yourself well for when it came your time, I am personally proud of the job that you have prepared yourself to do, congratulations Nick on a job well done!!!

I agree. I was one of those "holding my breath"! But, Nick came in and there was little drop off. He ran the system like you would expect a veteran to do. I also tried to trust the coaches. I was wondering why Bryant hadn't passed Nick on the depth chart. Nick came in, and proved why! I had worried it was a lack of talent on Bryant's part, but it was because of the talent &a knowledge of Nick! This kid can spin it! He is also a sneaky little runner! Great to see! I was afraid Deshaun had tore rotator cuff. Bullet dodged, we think! Go Tigers!

I'm not at all surprised at his performance today . I could see last season that he was capable of taking this team to victory against anyone .

He is getting his MBA. Clemson's MBA school is in downtown Greenville. And, Clemson is actually considering moving their entire undergrad mechanical engineering program to the ICAR center in Greenville. Hope they don't, but the facilities there are killer.

Nick did a fine job, very accurate and poised. Seems humble but confident behind Watson learning from Him. He showed it today. And yes, the best part of it is- Clemson didn't have to change any of their play calling, that is depth and a testament of Nick's preparation for every game. Take a lot of pressure of the OC's and Dabo when you've got a confident guy to go in that is prepared at a moment's notice. Noted.

My thoughts on the game
Nov 6, 2016, 9:14 AM

1st off, ya gotta start with Nick Schussler! Absolutely his best performance since he's
been here. I would give him the MVP of the game, and what I like was. There was no drop
off after Watson went out, hats off to Nick.
But it has to leave you wondering about the future of Kelly Bryant and the staff's trust
in him moving forward.....Does next year's Qb job come down to Cooper and Johnson?
Next, the strengh of the Clemson offense may not be in the QBs or even Rbs- It might just
be in our wide receivers. All deep and talented! Just get these guys the ball. I know, you
can't forget about the run, but there has been some doubt about the OL. So just get Williams,
Cain, Scott, Renforw, and McCloud the ball (and co.).
3rd, have said it before-Going say it again...#28 should be our number two back. He's just
going get better and better. Especially if we can get him on the outside.
Then, hats off to the team for playing a near complete game- More than I expected.
And lastly....Still would like to see some shake-ups at OL and maybe even the secondary (Cb)
Other than that, great game.
Bring on Pitt.

I mostly agree with what you said. I watched Feaster yesterday when he didn't carry the ball. He missed only one block. Even on that one, he did enough to slow him down. He wasn't picking those blocks up earlier in the year. The coaches said he had trouble with the playbook as well. It looks like he has really worked all that out. I hold my breath every time he touches the ball just like I did with CJ! I think he has a chance to be special. Dabo isn't shy about playing talented freshman. I'm learning to trust his decision on the depth chart. I'm so glad Feaster got out there in real game time. I'm from the Spartanburg area originally, so I pull for Feaster a little harder. Living up here in Eastern NC now, it can be harder to find Clemson broadcasts.
I alsothink the o-line played better this week. The ones looked better. Syracuse is a little softer than most, but they schematically were in position better today. Especially Guillermo.
I think the entire team is a bunch of superstars. Offense, defense, and special teams. The future is indeed bright!

Ya gotta like the receivers!
Man, Cain just went off..and so did Williams.
They might be the strengh of the offense-"the receivers"

Reading the story .... can Schuessler come back next year if he wants, another year of eligibility left ? That would be most excellent !
