Gratitude From the Fans is Important

I've seen all season long, consistent bellyaching and moaning about Coach Swinney and how he runs this program. Not just a legitimate gripe about losing a game or poor execution from the team at certain points in this season, but full on complaining about the state of the program in general.

Sure, I've complained about poor tackling or busted coverages. Yes, I've even complained about the blocked field goals and sometimes I've complained about dropped passes. That's perfectly fine to do, but complaining about coaching hires, scholarships, lack of portal usage or NIL is not okay.

Say what you want about this Clemson Football team, but all I know is that 16 other teams in the ACC don't have the ACC Conference Championship trophy in their trophy case for the 2024 season. No other active coach right now has 9 Conference Championship trophies in the entire nation.

There are 56 Power 4 teams that wish they could earn a playoff berth this season that will be watching the game from a couch somewhere. What I find odd is that both teams that are playing right now have more than a combined total of 35 transfers on their rosters. (Referring to Notre Dame and Indiana) Much like LSU, those players will transfer again and leave the cupboard bare just like what happened whenever FSU spent millions in the portal to accomplish what Clemson just accomplished for much less.

In other words, it's not a sustainable business model. LSU will have to recruit hard before National Signing Day or else risk maybe having an absent team next season. The issue with that would be the fact that most of the quality players have already signed with their respective teams for next season. LSU boosters spent millions in the portal last season only to get crapped on at the end of this season.

Clemson has accomplished more with less this season and I for one am super happy about it. Will Clemson win the National Championship this season? Probably not, but the future looks brighter than it's ever been at Clemson. My message to the doubters and nay sayers would be to either support Clemson as an ALL IN 110% fan or find another team to cheer for.

GO TIGERS! BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF EVERYONE!

If we somehow lose to Texas, expect the worse of TNET to pop out and blame Dabo. These are usually people who have no idea the work it takes to be successful. Mostly because it's the lazy and unaccomplished who constantly tear down the coaches.

I've always said that it's the man in the arena who counts; not the scoffers who criticize the man in the arena. Until they have blood, sweat, and dust in their eyes they cannot comprehend the way Coach Swinney sees the sport.

The same people who attacked the decision to hire Dabo...

when he was hired are the same ones attacking his system and methods of coaching now. They attacked his promoting Jeff and Tony to OCs and just about everything that went right was credited to someone other than Dabo or the failures of opponents.

They dumped on Dabo then, dump on Dabo now and will be dumping on Dabo until the next guy is hired then they will dump on him.

They don't shut up for a day and Tnet has lost many a good member/posted because they turned Tnet into a dumping ground.

They sit like bitter old women who complain about the rain then complain about the sunshine. A preacher once called those types heathen. They are careless, mindless and godless.

The Clemson football program and University should be grateful for the fan base. While they may be fan gripes, some are fair. Some may be overboard. But when I was SC game this year that crowd was 110% behind their team. Any game I’ve gone to. Clemson has a great fan base and there should be gratitude there as well. And it’s not cheap being an active fan going to games home/away.
