From an outsiders perspective : Clemson is blah, much like Auburn. South Carolina at least has the really cool quad-like area, though the rest of it is kind of blah as well. I didn't think either was really all that much fun as a place to go out, but Five Points was better than the 3 bars Clemson has.

UT ugly.
It has some really cool parts, particularly the hill, but a lot of the buildings have a soviet bloc architecture feel to them. However, the campus is in the midst of a 15 year renovation/rebuild which will really help. I wish they kept the traditional style but they're going with a more modern looking style to blend the old and the new parts of the campus together. It'll look good, but I prefer the traditional look better.
As for things to do, knoxville has a ton. The mountains are close, the strip is good for Most nights out, and the downtown is actually pretty damn cool, but it's a little bit of an older crowd. Knoxville benefits from being more of a city than a college town in the stuff-to-do department.

Clemson is incredibly average. I honestly don't get why anyone not already connected to that place via genealogy would list it as their first choice for school.
