I understand that it's alluring to some to use the trendy NFL-ish terminology when referring to a juggernaut program- but please -come on, Clemson's not a franchise.

They mean that TL is “The Franchise”, not Clemson ...

And it’s hard to argue that point regarding his value to the success of the team.

I don't think so . . .

I mean, I certainly don't disagree about the importance of TL - that's not in dispute, but I think it's clear the franchise word is aimed at Clemson, not TL. If using that terminology, TL would be a "franchise *player*." No one ever refers to the likes of Aaron Rodgers or Peyton Manning as "the franchise." They are (or were) franchise players. The franchise, by definition, is the team that is franchised via the NFL. It's the organization.

Easy answer if Trevor needs reps running the two minute

offense. Start out running it against the Coots from the opening whistle. If we do that, he will be on the bench sipping Gatorade by the middle of the second quarter, as we will be up 28+.

Truly the stupidest thing I have read on tigernet! The injury to Tua was a FREAK ACCIDENT which could have occurred at any point in any game given the EXACT SAME situation!! Trevor is an outstanding young man and qb but to say we have to “protect” him is complete disrespect to the ENTIRE DEFENSE!! We chirp about “next man up” but it sounds like, by this article, if Trevor gets hurt Clemson is DOOMED!! Chase Brice threw the rock, handed it off and ran a couple of times with the 1st string “DUDES” last year in the DEFEAT of Syracuse. I dont remember the score or any of the stats except the fact that CLEMSON WON!!! Football is a violent sport, where violent things happen, regardless of the score!! I dont hear anyone saying anything about the stud D lineman that got hurt, his absence opens HUGE opportunity for Auburns offense. Just sayin........stupid article. Sorry I read it!

Trevor has some of that responsibility as well when he runs the RPO. I've cringed a few times when he took off, thinking "is the 7 yards worth a hard hit?" Fortunately, no Syracuse hits, but the knee twist last week was an eye opener, or it should have been.

It sounds like the staff and Trevor understand the need to be cautious at times. That also implies there may be times when he has to go all out with runs, etc. He is a talented runner who is going to break a long one eventually. He has the ability.
