A few hosts on espnu radio over the past few days:


"Bo Nix actually looks like he's regressed 7nder Chad Morris."

"Speaking of Auburn, maybe Chad Morris was the problem at Arkansas."

"Looking back, it seems like everywhere Chad Morris leaves, they get better."




Just shows how little these people actually know about CFB...

Clemson got better, SMU got better and now we are better.

Maybe firing Morris is the catalyst?

It's interesting how each team not only improved, but vastly so. Clemson won a national title, SMU is better than they have been since suffering the death penalty and we're starting out better than anyone expected.

He's the Good Luck Chuck of football. Every team fires him and then finds "the one."

It always cracked me up that he tried to claim that he played some integral architect role in Clemson’s national championships.

They got exponentially better after he took the SMU job. Dabo never won more than 10 regular season games with Morris as his OC. The very first year after he left for SMU, Clemson was in the National Championship Game. The year after that they won it. I was ‘meh’ on the Morris hire when it was announced, but that first team meeting when he tried to invoke Clemson and their NC, I immediately thought “this guy is full of shite.”

Hopefully lancing that boil proves to be our good luck charm as well. God knows we’re due.

I just want to be sure but is everyone saying Chad Morris's rightful place in clemson history is as man responsible for the term clemsoning?

It wasn't the "if you were any good, I wouldn't be here" remark

Looking back, that statement kinda makes sense in a way now that you mention it though

I’d forgotten about that.

God, what an incredibly tone deaf, poorly worded thing to say to a bunch of college kids.

Definitely gives credence to the reports that he essentially lost the team from minute 1, starting with that first team meeting.

I am embarrassed to admit I was so happy to get rid of poor drunken Bert I more or less liked Chad's first team meeting.

"He's not Bert! Huzzah!"

When you go back and watch it with the knowledge you have now you just have to cringe.

Well if we’re fessing up, I saw him at a Razorback club banquet club thing right after he was hired and I kinda liked him too.

And like Nostradamus, a guy at our table that night said something like here’s a new guy we will all get behind and then we’ll all hate him and he’ll be gone and we start the same thing over- better worded than that but you catch the drift.

Of course that was before the real Chad showed his ugly ways and shitty abilities.

I feel like chad was forced on us by a powerful buster because he ran the offense best suited for his grandson.

Reminds me of a leader I had when I worked at acxiom. They had just done a reorg right after reviews were completed so the new guy was who actually went over the review that my previous one had done. He said well these are really good scores and comments you got but be prepared I don’t give good reviews like this. I remember thinking well nice to meet you too asswipe. He got fired probably 6 months after that and it made me smile.

We just had the biggest booster revolt in the history of the program. We had an interim AD who wanted someone that no one else wanted so she shut up and tried to manage the revolt. And we had our super famous booster that managed an actual NFL team pushing for Chad.

So we got Chad.

The one and only good thing about this is that we will probably not get a big booster revolt again in our life times after this debacle.

If Chad were any good, he'd still be here.

And then when Chad did burn the program down, dipshit media hacks like Mike Irwin tried to blame his hire on Julie Peoples

I think dipshit Clay Henry did to

I will disagree. There was two other good things that came of it.

1. Long got fired so that we could end up with a real A.D.

2. We ended up sticking WarChickenTiger's with Gus and a stupidly ridiculous contract. That's a gift that keeps giving.

I wonder if we could double dip after Auburn ditches him and hire him, then fire him the same day.

Was the nervous water guzzling at the first press conference.

Then at every press conference after.
