Dabo Swinney was proper, His mid-week rant was heading in the right direction. We must always cease treating Clemson in another way.
Let’s cease pretending the Tigers should be held to a sure normal, like an Alabama, Ohio State or Georgia. Clearly, this program doesn’t warrant that. It will probably’t even dominate the underwhelming ACC anymore.
It has proven itself to be mediocre. The times of contending for nationwide championships are a distant reminiscence. Clemson followers must be completely satisfied for successful seasons, and so they might not even get that this fall. Cherish 2015-19, when the Tigers reached the title recreation 4 instances and received all of it twice.
That was the purpose the thin-skinned Swinney was making this week, proper? Or was he simply chafing at criticism? Unable to take care of the notion, Clemson has been trending the fallacious approach for a number of years now, and this workforce, which had a whopping 11 gamers chosen to the All-ACC preseason workforce, to this point appears like essentially the most disappointing within the sport.
