Who You Got Now?
This could be the saddest post yet written on this blog, which is really saying something considering how the last five years have gone for the basketball program. But here we are. For the sake of this exercise, let's assume that what we all read between the lines in yesterday's letter from Debbie...
Back To The Drawing Board?

Clemson Game Grades
Offense Why am I putting myself through this exercise this week? I don't know. State's offense was dreadful in almost every respect on Saturday and put together just three decent drives in 12 possessions. The first, a 7-play, 58-yard march, led to the Pack's only touchdown. The second, 10 plays...
