nd yet it is. Go look at anyone from QS to US News.

And that's from from a Gator, and probably one that knows a shitload more than you about higher ed.

Not saying you can't get a good education at Clemson, but Georgia has more clout.


I'm not worried what a sidewalk fan thinks about Clemson. ANybody who says they know a 'shitload' about higher education doesn't know anything. You are not employing anybody. lol

Employers don't reference the US News rankings when they make staffing decisions.

US News rankings are for soccer moms who bribe the 'elite' colleges to get their dumb kid in there.

Clemson is part of the 40th most populated CSA, Greenville, in the country.

It is really not anybody more rural than Chapel Hill is.

THe majority of students at Clemson are not from rural areas. Lot of kids from the big cities in and out of the state.

I'm sorry pointing out the fact that there are 100,00 less students in one conference than another denotes trolling to you.
I was simply letting you know that you're playing loose with the facts.

Two years ago after Clemson won the natty with Watson, ya'll said that Clemson wouldn't win another one and only won that one b/c Watson was a generational QB.

might want to hold off on predictions.


Go ahead and pull link when I said that.

Also, did Dabo leave and Clemson won it all under a new coach I'm not aware of?

No? Then my previous statement stands.

What makes you think Clemson could not win a title with another coach or even be competitive after Dabo leaves?

In terms of recruiting location, facilities, recent titles, etc, that does not seem like a rational assumption.

it is like assuming UNC or Duke will struggle once Coach K and Roy Williams leave.

it could happen but it sounds more like wishful thinking.

Ii is trolling when you say it makes a difference but when challenged with a different conference you don't do your homework.

I am not playing loose with the facts just saying you move the goalposts when other numbers exist that you refuse to check, less it warp your narrative.

If you could look up the ACC and SEC numbers, why not look up the B1G and have a better base for your argument unless such facts weaken your position and you know it and refuse to answer a direct point.

It’s smack dab in Anderson SC. Home of pickup trucks and good old boys.

Nice work OP - over 140 posts about Clemson on one thread on an SEC site. Add in all the USCe posters that finally got to be marginally relevant in the discussion ...well you’ve done more for open honest dialogue with our US of C brothers and sisters than our beloved former governor herself. I think you’ve earned a Fresca.

Total SEC enrollment - 465,934

100,000 is a big difference.


Not really

B1G is probably close to SEC + ACC

300K to 400K is a hell of a lot bigger than 100K

Guess this proves students want to go to SEC schools - schools that play real football.

“The most selective public university in SC” - high praise indeed. Take that Mississippi , guess that makes you next to last.

Look ...I’m really not retarded...like most people, I can’t keep up with all your school name changes. Try sticking to one we can all remember.

Sometimes I really wonder if you have a split personality.

That has to be one of the dumbest thing I’ve heard in a long time. No one has any interest in watching the powerful Blue Devils of Duke having a pillow fight with Ga Tech. Or “mighty” Clemson showing off to one of the dainties of the ACC. Boring!!!

I can pretty much guarantee you if a UGA grad and a Clemson grad were up for the same position that the UGA guy would be hired. Of course, if the job involved tractor maintenance or plowing the south 40 the Dawg would lose out

please reveal the list of the tough games your team plays this season. i'm interested to know which teams within the SEC you consider tough or difficult games.


You shittin me. ATm, LSU, Auburn and MSST.and the SC game was anphysical ball game. Certainly tougher than what Clemson has to face in the ACC. I don’t know how you could be so bitchy to even question that or is it you see script A and go stupid over hatred.

So University South of Carolina makes sense to you? Do you pull for a team from Clemson, South of Carolina? Is this state named South of Carolina?

Yeah, I'm in charge of what the flagship University of the great state of "South of Carolina" is called. I can so easily see how that would equate to me having a split personality.



I'm gonna start calling you Scarecrow and your theme song is "If I Only Had a Brain."

You can’t argue with a Clemson fan. They can’t understand the simplest things. They have to take off their shoes to count to 20. At least the ones that actually wear shoes

Seriously. I mean he talks about how difficult it is to keep up with what we call our University.

It's been two. USC and now UofSC.

So terribly difficult to keep up with two things, isn't it?
