Clemson just didn’t come from no where, there were still top 20 of all time in wins. But the main reason is money. Clemson maybe small but they have the boosters and they put most of their resources in just football.

Clemson was already getting top 25 classes before Dabo. Since then Dabo has built facilities to rival anyone in the country, hired and pays the best coordinators and he’s already a great recruiter in a prime location

Not trying to sound like I am taking a jab at Clemson, but am I missing something here? Dabo has built them into a juggernaut machine, but how? He consistently gets top rated recruiting classes and brings in top talent.

It's Clemson, South Carolina. Anyone seen where Clemson is located? It's in the middle of nowhere in South Carolina...Also, the town is like 14,000 population, which I am sure is basically the entire university. You always hear about some jobs being tough because of location. Well, Clemson is a proven rebuttal to any of those arguments. It's in the middle of nowhere in a town not much larger than a village.

They are also in the ACC, I could see if they were in the SEC how they may be able to use their conference pull to get some talent much like Ole Miss or Miss State does, but they are in the ACC..Which seemingly is a conference that can only sustain one power program. If it isn't just an overall mediocre conference at best, it can only prop up one true power program. Seems lately if it isn't Florida State it's Clemson or vice versa.

And it isn't like Clemson is padding itself in a weak conference, they are getting top talented players and can hold their own on the national stage, even knocking off Alabama once and each time putting up big close fights.

So am I missing something? Am I googling the wrong Clemson, South Carolina? Or the wrong Clemson University?

a couple of things:

1.) Clemson is located on the Georgia border. Georgia is one of the best states for HS football.
2.) Clemson is guaranteed to play at least 2 teams from NC each year, which gives them pretty solid access to NC talent. NC produces around 15-16 5*/4* guys each year.
3.) Per capita, SC is one of the better football states out there.
4.) They have emerged as one of FSU's biggest rivals. Dabo does solid recruiting work in Florida as a result.
5.) Passionate fan base and a big stadium. Speaks for itself.

School is located in the right part of the country and has passionate fans. Pretty simple stuff.

Have you never notciced that half of all college towns are in buttfuck Hicksville nowhere? Especially in the South. The football stadium often holds more people than actually reside within 100 miles.

On gamedays in SC, Death Valley and Williams-Brice are the two largest "cities" in the state

I'll take snow over the humility and lack of mountains you have every day of the year.

I don't know about your humility , but are you talking about mountains like this ???iuRNNUAFP7.jpg

You can be in the mountains in less than an hour from Clemson's campus.

You can be to the coast in around 3 1/2 hours.

You can be in Atlanta or Charlotte in 2 1/2 hours.

The mountains 11 miles from me are mountains, not large hills. That is what I meant. I get that your hills actually meet the dictionary term, but they are nothing like what we have.

Good for you and your proximity to the coast. You belong where you love and want to be!

Haha! I'll pass on Atl and Charlotte.
To each their own.

Don't try to shine that turd bro. We all know Calfornians, which are slightly worse than Ohioans, are infesting your neck of the woods every second. Hell, y'all will be a blue state shortly. Fuck that shit lol.

I'll tell you why and there is only ONE reason why...

HE IS A FUCKING CHEATER! He cheats at life, he pays recruits and their grandparents, he buys them those electronic scooter things, he gives them lunch money....he is a POS

You can smell the off-season in the air with how these threads have devolved today.

Clemson is surrounded by white trash. Tillman knew that when he started Clemson University. Y'all still have a building named after a man that openly murdered black folks.

You can keep repeating that lie as much as you want, it still isn't going to be true.
