So I guess this game means Venables is a lousy DC?
- Thread starter wil-cocks
- Start date
He’s sure lost tonight. Doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing.
This is what happens when Clemson doesn’t get a full month to prepare.
He’s just lousy when having a tough time stealing signs.....
I notice when they’re getting their butt kicked he seems to have an easier time staying on the sidelines.
it honestly looks like OSU figured out how to keep him from stealing signals.
Certainly was a marked difference in this game.
He was pretty terrible at Oklahoma so I’ve always been amazed how he’s done so well at Clemson. I think it’s obvious right now the key to his success.
That’s zackly what I thought. He don’t ack like a friggin idiot when he’s gettin it handed to him, what a friggin fake!!!!!
They'll still look good against the OLs if the ACC, but when they play teams who can play in the trenches, the lessons learned today may make life more difficult.
I'll say this about Venables. The last 2 games on the big stage his defenses have gotten obliterated.
Venables is a dirty coach and I have absolutely no respect for the man! Dirty coaches allow dirty players (Skalski, Boulware, Wilkins etc.) whether in high school, college or the pros. Tiggers will tell me "Brent is a good Christian family man who really cares about his players, Dabo and Clemson." OK, I'll agree with that statement and amend mine: BV is still a dirty coach who has taught and allowed players to play dirty for the past 9 years and I'm so glad he was exposed last night as a clueless loser when he isn't playing teams in the All Cupcake Conference or successfully stealing his opponents offensive signals.
agreed, it’s ridiculous. Any grown man who says he can’t manage to keep himself off the field of play is a bi$&h drama queen fake.
Their defense hasn't been that great for most of the season and evidently it was relatively thin at a few positions because without that DB and Skalski they had no answer. Who knows what effect that hit is going to have on Fields in the NC. He continued to play last night and still play great even though it was obvious he was in a lot of pain.
It appeared to be a rib injury. Those don't heal quickly especially if there are any cracked ribs. Speaking from experience those don't heal up for 6 weeks.
He's never been a premier tactician, but he coached with superior talent against inferior talent at least 12 games a year. Last night, he ran into a physically superior and dominant team and the results were embarrassingly disastrous.
It means even the best coaches with inferior talent can get stomped.
Not sure I would say he is now bad. It does show a possibility hole in his armor
at OU he had great talent (maybe elite) and zero accusations of stealing signs but defense was not good. Come to cupcake ville and immediately have great defenses with great players. You cant make this chit up.
Clemson army of analysts made this possible.

Will be interesting to see if more teams huddle vs no huddle in the future. Not sure it matters if your line of scrimmage dominates like OSU last night.
Lol thats just exactly how dumb some of our fans are....you base an opinion on whether someone is good at their job by one game...lol....we would give anything we had and any amount of money for veneables...AND SO WOULD virtually every other college program in the country. Sometimes a coach doesn’t know what their doing very well and they aren’t good at their job...SOMETIMES a coach doesn’t have the right personnel and/or scheme for a specific game and gets beat(veneables) but they win 90%of the time.....how can anyone with just a LITTLE bit of football iq even think of saying veneables isn’t good at his job ...wow
We can WATCH all we want...but when we face them we will not have OHIO STATE four and five star d linemen...why don,t our fans understand this?...amazes me...
I do agree with alot of this....acc cupcakes for most of the season,but to say he isn,t a good d coordinator is ridiculous (you DO NOT get hired by these schools if you aren’t good,and the results at Clemson and the players he gets drafted in the first three rounds of the draft is inarguably top notch...and it makes me sick. I DO however love the fire he coaches with and i think defensive players respond well to fired up coaching,without question....its just part of defensive minded people/players DNA...we NEED that here,BADLY...
Yet, Urban hired an OL coach, that Day retained, that many of our fans would be wringing our hands over if we hired him. Studrawa was fired at LSU, landed at Maryland for a few years, before Urban found him.
Clemson didn’t do themselves any favors last night by not bringing pressure. I knew their DB’s weren’t that good but I didn’t realize they were as awful as they were. Leaving his DB’s one on one was a gamble but they also weren’t doing a thing when Clemson rushed 4 and tried to play coverage. To not go after an injured QB that was hurting was a dumb move on Venebles part.
Fields is good enough to find hot receivers. He would have gutted them like fish even more than he did.
He sends his players in on full out blitzes about 95% of the time, in conference play he just has the better talent always.... Hes ok, like Muschamp was ok.. Give him our defense the guy would look like T Rob.
