Talking to a few people about what changes will be made this offseason

Consensus is we are going 5-7 at best. Going to move on from Grisham, Austin on the offensive side. Lemanski Hall, Goodwin and maybe Conn on the defensive side. Dabo is gonna blow it all up. Dabo will be who he is and ride out the season and say the right things, but expect big changes.

Win 3 of the next 4? I'd be shocked. I think 2-2 is the best this team will do. 1-3 likely.

I don’t see how anybody hasn’t watched Cade and seen the talent he has. He’s trying to do way to much because he basically has to. If Cade is given an actual OL and playmakers he will take this team far.

I appreciate all the information you have been giving us. Obviously you know some players or coaches really well.
I hope you're right. Austin, Grisham, and Hall have been a disaster. Goodwin, you know is gone after Dabo called him out after the FSU three man rush thingy- was it FSU?
Spiller, eh, he can't do much damage where he is and Dabo owes his career to that man. Fans owe him everything too. We are not the program we are today had he not signed.

Why are yall so ###### determined to have Goodwin fired? We have the #7 defense in the country. Yeah he made a bone headed move at the end of the first half against FSU, but that's it! We would be 2-6 if it wasn't for him and our defense!
Yeah he doesn't run around the sidelines jumping up and down like he's on an eight ball of cocaine, that's what yall want from what I'm gathering.

He has talent and pretty good arm strength, so did Tajh but couldn't see the entire field, don't think Cade has the moxie or feel for the game Tajh had and not many CU QBs could throw the deep ball like Tajh, not Watson or Trevor, but Tajh is Cades maximum upside. He plays and interviews like a ninth grader at the Class A HS level, just super-excited all the time. Don't see him bringing us back to the glory days, hope Vizzina can.

Tajh is not the kids max potential you are insane, I want you to go play QB behind that line and tell me what you see. If Tajh was as accurate as Cade we could’ve competed for a title with that offense.

I think Richardson should be on that list too… “passing game coordinator” and our passing game is terrible… I know a lot of that is on development of positions but watch any game and teams figure out how to get guys open and move the ball… everything is so hard for us on offense it’s hard to watch. Everything is a struggle and it’s almost a shock when we complete a 15 yard pass .

I’m pretty sure in Richardson’s role he could not be an issue good or bad. He is an OC in training imo.
His high school teams were true air raid offenses. Lot of big plays and points.

I would be shocked to see him leave if Dabo does make these changes. With the right hires, we seriously could have the greatest one season turnarounds. We have the talent to compete for titles, but coaching blunders have squandered that.

I’d imagine he gets a substantial input. I think some of the Dabo play calling shenaningans we see is just him knowing what the players are able to do based off their coaches—not to say Riley has no offensive input because I think that sentiment is far from true.
I would guess Dabo and Riley will have guys in mind and collaborate on who fits best.

He makes too much and his stock is at rock bottom, no one will pay him what we are currently and Dabo is going to make the changes to set him up to succeed. No word, I asked, if he will get any input on the hires but he likely will have a seat at the table.

Do you foresee any substantial moves regarding the portal with either losing current players or adding players?
To be clear, I don’t think the portal is our problem, but just curious is there will be any changes made.

Cool, that’s what I figured. Dabo isn’t opposed to the portal as some seem to parade. He just sees the value in keeping his dudes and developing players. Teams that are able to develop players don’t take a lot of transfers—see UGA & Bama. We have lost that ability; thus the decline.
Wouldn’t anticipate much shake up there except for maybe an experienced OL or two.

To transferring or taking a shot at the league? Regardless, losing Mafah would be huge. Ship seems like a great dude, but his antics this season along with his inability to hold the ball at crucial moments is frustrating.
Mafah is a beast. Losing him would be tough.

I was wondering the same. The only thing I could imagine is that he just lacks the intensity Dabo might want. The defense has played well, but they haven’t played with intensity, and the customary one or two busted plays a game seems to be a byproduct of that.

I’ve been saying this for a while. Change is coming. Hopefully a silver lining to the season is it speeds up the process.
…. Multiple issues across the board. Roster management and coaching. Gotta change the OL philosophy on room size. We don’t need to hit the portal a ton… Just sparingly. But make a legitimate effort.

If you get the opportunity to ask, I’d be curious to know how the off-season read of this year was so far off from reality. Did the coaches genuinely think this was a good team that would play for a national championship? Seems like a massive misread on the program to have that expectation and then have a consensus on the inside being a 5-7 season.

I know spiller is in year two, but that’s another that needs to go. Pass blocking out of the RB’s is still pourous. Shipley stares at his feet instead of the holes a lot, and the ball security has been god awful.

I hope they talk Batson into retiring. I don't know if your in is with a S&C team member but this team is injury prone, weak, and slow that's an indicator the off-season is not being used properly. The OL has been weak for over 2 decades and the strongest dudes on the team are usually freshmen, how the hell can anyone tell me Peter woods being the strongest dude on a D1 team is a positive?

The people who think Dabo won’t burn it all down are idiots who thrive on the negativity going around. It won’t even be the first time he’s done it. The only way players are sticking around and the recruits are staying committed will be due to Dabo affirming that he knows what to do next.

He’s the safety version of Bently. I wish we could find a way to use him and I think that’s why Wes might be gone. Too much talent all over the place not being utilized. That along with player development, Wes is a genius in scheming up a defense but he isn’t developing the fundamentals. That’s on him and the position coaches and why we will see change.

Yep i wish Wes would move to an analyst role but I know that’s never going to happen. I feel like his mind is much needed on the staff but we need fire/discipline back. I just really hate to lose Covil his tape reminds me of Weapon X the way he’s willing to just lay people out.

Goodwins not going anywhere. You can bet your a## on that. Finished 25 overall defense last year and sitting at #6 right now. Problems not defensive issues its all on the offensive side of the ball. O-line coach gone and Grisham gone.

Our D is the least talented at DE that it has been I forever
Oct 29, 2023, 9:17 PM
|
|
Our starting DTs are good, the youth look great. Our starting safety’s are good but not as talented as we have had at times. Again, youth looks good here. Wes has done more having this unit at 6 vs last year and quite a few BV teams that were immensely more talented with upperclassmen. Our main problem is misevaluation of upperclassmen particularly on O. Most of these guys wouldn’t have been responsible for that. I think we see changes on O but not much if any on D particularly if the starts hold which will be challenged with some of the upcoming games. The offense 75% of the problem. Special Teams is the other 25%.

Who in their right mind on this thread thinks we’re going to beat South Carolina in Columbia. What in the world have you seen that tells you were going to do that. Their offense is better than just about every team. We’ve played this year and we can’t win a game against those teams.

HLRT said in another comment on this thread that he is underutilizing talent and isn’t developing players. He also lacks intensity. Freak freshman are gonna play, but when they’re better than the dudes you’ve had two years to develop, and who have seemingly lost draft stock, that’s an issue.

Not opposed to Goodwin staying as a DC for developing gameplan/scheme, but perhaps bring in an actual LB coach, put Eason in charge of entire DL (to keep # of on-field assistants in line). Heard anything on those lines?
Think Richardson gets a pass as the TEs have been best pass-catchers past couple seasons despite being mostly underutilized. Would Spiller be on the chopping block given the fumble issues and if we do lose Ship and/or Mafah (since seems like Ship’s attitude has been an issue this year & Mafah seems to be underutilized given the on-field results)?
Any word about S&C change? Given the injury bug has been an issue, do you see moving on from Batson being in the cards?
Lastly, potential departures...any particular names you're hearing hitting portal outside the aforementioned Shipley/Covil talk? Any indications on underclassmen expected to declare for draft?
TIA, HitsLikeRendrickTaylor

I’m not being mean, I just honestly don’t know.
He has the co-DC title, but what does that mean? He is never interviewed. He isn’t mentioned as working with a specific position group anymore, although I know he has worked with safeties in the past. I don’t ever hear his name mentioned with recruiting.
Seriously, what does he do? He is making $800,000 a year, so I hope he’s making big contributions to the team.

When I was at the Oculus for the FSU game during Tiger Walk, Conn was there with about 5 or 6 HS recruits. Along with Austin and Spiller and their recruits. So he’s definitely involved on the recruiting, and I believe he’s still coaching the safeties. If not that doesn’t make much sense to have Goodwin be DC and LB coach while Conn does no field coaching. It should be the other way.

You think the whole “our coaching staff is the best it’s ever been” a couple weeks ago was just a face?
I mean I know he’s not going to come out and say
“Yeah I’ve made some bad inexperienced hires”
But why would he even make those comments knowing he wants to get rid of them?

Skeptical on any defensive coaches being let go this year but no assistants on the offensive side of things should feel safe right now outside a select few. Wouldn't be upset if things did blow up to this magnitude though because things have become disgustingly bad.

I don’t disagree, but I see the points being told to me. I imagine what would this team look like vs GT with Paul and the triple option. I think we would be in position to defend it but still get gashed a ton vs how Venables had our guys prepared to dominate it.

What about Spiller? Is he going to be retained?

Nothing wrong with Wes Goodwin. The D has done their job.

Agreed. I would be surprised if they let Goodwin go. Defense has been placed in some bad situations due to the offensive turnovers or three and outs but still are 9th in total defense and 12th in yards play.

This is the most ridiculous thing you could claim to be in the know about. There is a 0% chance that all happens. Get real. Also, 5-7 is such a reach. 7-5 at worst and we all know that. Good lord.

Come one man, do you really think CDS is going to clean house like this dude is claiming? That is asinine. The defense is solid! Why would he fire any of those coaches? Grisham, Austin & Richardson being potentially canned makes total sense but everything else he claims is BS

If Dabo chose to make many changes on the defensive side of the ball.
In the scenario you laid out, it truly would be “blowing it up”.
It’ll be interesting to see what happens after the season. I still don’t think many changes on the defensive side will occur.

He is actually right more than he is wrong. He has been right about a lot of things in the past. I tend to give him a pass on the realignment thing.

I just pass along what I hear.... could it all be completely off the mark? 100%, but it's people I trust and what they gauge will happen. No one besides Dabo knows 100% what will be done but people close to things think that's the mostly likely outcome to come down the pipeline in the offseason.

Thanks for the information.
I'm from the Rock Hill area and I can tell you that Richardson knows how to motivate the dogs that we need to compete. He is super valuable!

His motivation tactics aren't working too well at Clemson.***
