Clawoquy as in tiger claw + colloquy? I didn't realize you were such the wordsmith.

The Jacket is quite the enigma.

I am weapons-grade autism made flesh and my love for the written word is impervious to everything but persistent maximum doses of thorazine.

edit: Or in other words, I genuinely cannot help myself.

Sources: OU set to finalize deal with Venables

Oklahoma is set to finalize a deal with Brent Venables to make the Clemson defensive coordinator -- and former Sooners assistant -- the team's next head coach, sources told ESPN.

The article also states that Venables was interested in hiring Ole Miss offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby as his offensive coordinator if he gets the job. This might help us as teams we face early may be adjusting to new coaches.

DRad leaving now Venables. I think Clemson is in some trouble with some sanctions coming.

Will this guy come with him?

Good chance Tony Elliott also leaves for UVA or Duke.

I think you’re reading too much into it, though. Great coordinators don’t stick around long when they have Clemson-level success. It’s pretty amazing that they’ve stuck around as long as they have, honestly.

DRad is a surprise (if he does indeed go), but he’s got history with Miami and he may just prefer living in Miami to Clemson.

I hope Clemson enjoyed their run. I just don’t see Dabo being able to reload coordinators like Saban has been able to do.

The big part of Saban’a success i think is that the defense is his scheme so it is always stable. He’s got a knack for finding good offensive coordinators to begin in but it all starts with a consistent defensive scheme. It will be hard to replace Venables at Clemson

Let’s start of 2022 with a ööööing win.

Not at all. Partially because I’ve found this board significantly more interesting, and partially because it’s easy enough to have in-person Clemson convos living in Upstate SC. Seeing a fellow GT fan is a rarity that warrants a “Go Jackets” every time.

I stopped saying Go Jackets at Tech fans under 40 that I run into on the street. They just stare at me with horror in their eyes that another human being is talking to them.

I very much look forward to a Venables-less Clemson.

Gives us a chance week one Maybe long has us humming

I tried "What's the good word?" a few times and was met with similar reactions. I gave up after that.

The last time I tried that, I got a "Go Jackets" and that was the last time I try that.
