Clemson Tigers (official thread)

No way the timing is random here

This is being orchestrated

When the 2nd crack in the dam appears, it's time to head for higher ground. If you're in the ACC, and the schools that are likely to find safe harbor aren't talking to you, it's time to figure out where your future is, because if you want a seat at the adult table... Tick... Tick... Tick...

RYAN DAY ACCOMPANIES RJ DAY ON A CLEMSON VISIT​

WAYMENT. Ladies and gentlemen of the gallery gourmet, OH BOY, do I have some news to share.

On Wednesday, David Hood of TigerNet reported that an Ohio quarterback in the 2027 class visited Clemson this spring. That quarterback’s name? RJ Day. And who accompanied RJ on the visit to Upstate South Carolina? His dad, Ryan Day.

Indeed, Ryan Day visited Clemson in March – not as Ohio State’s head football coach, but as a father to RJ, a high school prospect out of St. Francis De Sales who holds offers from Boston College and Marshall.

Isn’t that nuts?

On the one hand, Ohio State and Clemson have become bitter rivals over the past decade – the Tigers beat the Buckeyes in 2013, 2016 and 2019, and the Buckeyes beat the Tigers in 2020 – making Ryan Day’s presence on Clemson’s campus unthinkable. On the other hand, Ryan Day loves his son and wants what is best for him, making the unthinkable presence understandable…

… somewhat.
I don’t know what to make of it. Is this a thing? Is this not a thing? You tell me.

For what it’s worth, RJ Day loved the visit.

“I loved the staff and the facilities,” he told Hood. “Everyone was so welcoming and kind. It is like one big giant family. Everyone is very happy to be working and be in the building, which says a lot about the culture that Coach (Dabo) Swinney has built in his time there.”

RJ Day added that his dad didn’t make the visit awkward.

“All the coaches are great considering the dynamic that is unique to us, but I sense a feeling of mutual respect between my dad and other coaches,” he said. “That makes the visit more about what the school has to offer for me than the drama that could stir because of his position.”

Drama, huh?

Kind of like ranking Ohio State 11th in the —

Eh, never mind.

Dabo's following in the footsteps of so many uber-successful coaches before him whose careers tailed off rapidly - found a great deal of success doing things one way, but when the landscape around him began to shift, he fails to adapt because he thinks he's bigger than the change surrounding him. I'm fucking here for it.
Why even bring up Rich Rodriguez here? Oh wait......you didn't?
