I am going to do a Friday mailbag on TigerNet this week. What questions do you have about Clemson that I can answer in said mailbag?

Kind of vague, but what redshirt freshman are you hearing big things about? Basically, who should we be excited about?

I saw Freshman but I still think he plays this year. Drew Whoopazz might give some great 2nd string play according to some about his talent, just needed some muscle. Just speculation of course.

Any additional word on the ACC getting two automatic qualifiers to the CFP? And how would the ACC award those spots (other than the obvious winner of the game in Charlotte).

What position would we take a serious look at from the portal if the right player presented himself? Football question.
Thoughts on Zachery getting another year due to his Juco year? Obviously Pavia with the Dores has set a precedent.

If you ever get a chance to do an interview with Neff, would be interested to know if there are any plans being discussed in the near or far future to do any significant upgrades to Memorial Stadium.
Several universities (Penn St for one at 730 million dollars)are currently either doing major renovations or building new. Obviously we aren’t building a new stadium. I would imagine in the next 10 years it’ll have to come up.

When revenue sharing starts next year, do you expect some cost cutting to happen within the AD? Do you think the out-of-control salaries will be impacted in the coming years?
How likely is it that CBB will get an offer from Indiana? If he does, who is one name to watch as a replacement?
Is our softball team going through a transition as the original cast exited or are there bigger issues to address?
Is Leggett still in the dugout in a uniform or has that changed since the lost it by going on the field last year?

Are the ACC and Big 12 meeting behind closed doors to plan a response to the P2 CFP proposal(s), and to do some cross scheduling in football, basketball and potentially other sports to create more marquee matchups?

into the evolution of the market economy in the southern colonies? My contention is that prior to the Revolutionary War, the economic modalities—especially in the southern colonies—could most aptly be characterized as agrarian pre-capitalist. I don't want him regurgitating Gordon Wood either. I'd like some original insights.

Hood has previously asked Dabo to share his thoughts about the southern pre-Revolutionary economy several times, most recently after the 2022 Spring Game. Dabo’s answer didn’t offer any new insights and not only did he regurgitate Wood’s thesis, he quoted him directly. David went in for a pretty clever follow up trying to get at things from a different angle, but Dabo dismissed and stuck with football talking points.

A lot of assumptions were made that once ESPN and The ACC agreed to extend their TV partnership that Clemson and FSU has dropped their lawsuits. Nothing has been announced by Clemson and I still believe we should leave The ACC. Where do we stand in the process of our current lawsuit against the ACC?

when they visited France in 2023? In an interview he stated he was afraid of heights and wasn't going to. He seems to have discovered a newfound groove since then though, a confidence on the sideline with players responding and a bit of an 'eat ####' sort of attitude. Did he make the trip up after all?

from the Football Defensive coaching staff, in philosophy and technique, under Tom Allen, that hopefully returns Clemson's defense back to where we all want to see it return?
Does the entire Defensive staff, under Allen, retain coaching the same groups they coached previously? (Example: Eason-DT's, Reed-CB's, etc......)

What % of offensive plays Does Dabo and Riley call?
Why does Dabo keep an offensive play menu in his possession while on sidelines?

WHO ON THE COACHING OR ATHLETIC DEPT. STAFF WILL DETERMINE HOW MUCH EACH INDIVIDUAL PLAYER WILL RECEIVE FROM THE 20 MILLION PLUS REVENUE SHARE GOING INTO EFFECT IN 2025 SEASON?
