I've got a suggestion for a couple of posters who

regularly post their complaints about Clemson. And I mean this honestly, with no ill will intended.

Some of you, and you know who you are, have posted many times that you are convinced the Clemson Athletic Departmant is being led by morons.

You have said that you are convinced Clemson will NEVER be great in football because the people in charge at Clemson will NEVER let it happen.

You have said you are convinced the higher ups don't want Clemson to succeed.

You have said you are convinced Dabo was a bad hire.

You have said you are convinced Napier is in over his head.

You have said you believe all Clemson wants is the money (IPTAY, ticket sales, etc.) for nothing in return.

You have said OP is no better than Bowden and should be shown the door soon.

So my suggestion for you... find another team to pull for. I'm being completely honest here. This is NOT a flame. If you believe all of the negative things you write about Clemson, why keep trying to convince others you are right? Just move on to a team/school that can make you happy.

Thge only other option is to accept this is as good as it gets and be miserable the rest of your life.

have seen what Clemson football was like under Ford. They know what it takes in order to succeed. When Clemson football was being "put on the map" in the late 70's by Pell, we had one of the greatest presidents in Clemson's history in RC Edwards and Bill McClellan as AD who quickly fired Red Parker when he wouldn't get rid of certain assistants.

Some people see what Clemson football CAN be. We will never be like Tenn, Alabama, UF, Texas, UGA, etc because we don't have the money to compete. We do have the ability, however, to win the putrid ACC every once in a while. 19 years is inexcusable. It's almost laughable to consider how bad our program has fallen.

I believe we are certainly on the right track, but how do you expect people to trust the administration at Clemson given it's track record in the last 20 years? Of course, most of those people are gone now, but it's hard to forget that kind of crap.

You gotta admit that it's pretty sick for Clemson to hire a coach for 800,000 and then not give him the support staff that he was promised when he accepted such a low salary. Then, we tried to get rid of the freaking team chaplain due to being afraid of being turned in by the NCAA and ACLU when every team in the country probably has a chaplain on campus.

Dabo will succeed somewhere as a head coach, and I hope it's at Clemson.
