Just wanting to know when we get our SEC decoder rings and Alabama gear so that we can join in the dickride.

Kidding, of course. Thank you for your invitation, but as Clemson University is more than just football greatness, we will have to decline your offer of Membership. Again.

Sad Clemson doesn't play anybody till they get to a play off game!

Nice melt.
It’s very likely Clemson doesn’t get picked up and ends up dying with the ACC.

Not saying it should or would happen, but there are those in the Clemson camp who seem open to the idea of being SEC.

Clemson is like a golf course in the desert.

As soon as Dabo leaves, Clemson will go back to mediocrity. And that's in football.
Clemson brings nothing else in any other sport, either.

They’ve always been there. The number should increase now. Idk how serious the talk was on the last round of expansion where us and FSU were rumored to go to the SEC, but if serious we better not turn it down again.

That is quite literally all you are, and only under this current coach.

Clemmy is a MAJOR risk for the SEC. You'll be less than just football when Dabo leaves. It's best the SEC recruit real powers rather than flashes in the pan.

Dude y'all in a terrible conference with a bad TV deal until 2036 to boot, this is an arms race. Some of your brethren understand that fact over on Tigernet. Clemson has been hot over the past 7-8 years but you always need to be mindful of the future. Any fricking drop off from Clemson and y'all are dead to rights. No coming back....

Odd. Because it seems like you want to be in the SEC. Otherwise why the frick are you even posting here and making this thread?

Agree, from a Clemson fan. The most pivotal moment in Clemson history will be replacing Dabo at some point. Lot harder to do when you’re making half the money your peers are and living in a conference no one respects.

Your decline of membership will make
Brother Dabo happy---can remain the Big Frog
in your water droplet of a conference while
tending to his ministerial duties.

That is indeed a tough corner to be painted in. Also why I’m not convinced that this isn’t done but just revving up.

Agree, leadership just better realize they’re riding a losing horse instead of thinking adding WVU and UConn will save the day.

FSU is broke again, so if they get the invite, they would not make the same mistake they did in 1990 and say no.

Of course they are really stupid also, so you never know with those clowns.

Maybe sales will be up for their circus this year.

Not like you think it does obviously.

You haven't been offered membership. If you were, it means you asked for it. The fact that it's being talked about means that your leadership is groveling before Sankey right now for a chance at it.

You join and get a lot of tv money and then you get your arse beat by Bama more often than not.

They really are in a sad state, which in turn makes our position worse.

On the one hand I laugh because I hate them, on the other they’re supposed to be the other power in the ACC to bring some respect and they’re falling down on the job.

Wrong. Clemson has an excellent athletic dept. Their basketball and baseball programs are very good.

They have just never had any fiscal responsibility and the state and local government always bails them out because they are in Tallahassee.
