I don't necessarily think that. That's not what I said. But based on the Venables comment the OP referenced, Venables must think that.
Venables' sly dig at Gamecocks postgame
- Thread starter bdblack
- Start date
Did he give an update on his “get back guy”? As much as CU was on defense that dudes gotta be sore.
That’s exactly right. I was fully expecting Klempsun to show variety and balance on offense, out scoring Georgia and pulling away in the 2nd half. Not only did their QB look rattled, the play calling was not effective or creative.
Michigan has a central Michigan , eastern Michigan, etc. They are smaller schools. It’s a pejorative to indicate they are not the main school.
BTW, we are not a directional school since SC is the state. I have said that so cal is a directional school since it is the southern part of California. No one else would say that. Ha.
He's contradicting his team schedule. They play SC State next week. CU will try to bash them by 50 plus.
Aren't taters playing SC State next week. Guess they won't learn anything.
I was just thinking aren't the taters playing SC State next? LOL
Agreed. Usually clemson opens with a 70-10 cupcake game, and this was very different. He's trying to spin it as any coach would.
Kind of funny to hear someone try to spin it as he's insecure about Beamer too. Talk about reading way too much into a generic coach speak comment.
This whole thing seems very meh to me. If he was directing this at us, so what, it will be decided on the field later this year. If he wasn't then.... well..., either way I get back to who the hell cares what that arese clown thinks anyway???
I know.
But to be fair, will clemson really improve, or learn anything meaningful about themselves with a romp over them?
No I would have asked the same if the team would have been team X. I was just curious as to why one could improve but the other can’t.
Correct! And the year before that one we passed for 510 yards and 5 TD's against St. Venables' defense.
Wrong, my 'delusional' friend. Watch the entire Venables postgame interview, then get back to me.
Vegetables also recognizes he lacks the personality for a head coaching position. Can you imagine this guy with his own TV show?
If this truly was a dig at the Gamecocks... that means one of the first things he did after their game was to find the Gamecock final score.
Could someone be more specific about the quote? This sounds like fiction. Was he watching our game at halftime?
For all of you "Gamecock fans" (taters always hide themselves below ground until they are pulled up, lol) who believe I fabricated Venables' remarks, or actually have convinced yourselves that he wasn't referring to the Gamecocks win more than an hour and a half after we won, just find his interview postgame and watch it, all of it. No need for an apology, just live and learn.
I don’t know if that was a poke at Carolina. Or bragging about opening the season with a tough opponent.
But I bet Dabo and staff are behind the scenes politicking tooth and nail to keep from having UGA on their schedule in the future. lol

Um, yeah, has he seen the rest of Clemson's schedule? It's not exactly murder's row.
You convinced me. Not only was Venables comment completely about the gamecocks, bit I think he was speaking directly to you, to make you mad.
I never get angry, my friend. Just doing my part to lift you from the bonds of ignorance, lol.
It helps when you have that direct link to the inner thoughts of people you see speaking on TV. Does the tinfoil hat really focus those signals?
His comment doesn't bother me one way or another. People who want to be offended will never have trouble finding something to be upset about.
well, the irony of his statement is that most of his opponents couldn't beat one of those directional teams and one quality opponent a year doesn't cut it.
Finally someone with balls who doesn’t get their feelings hurt at every comment made by those i media who don’t care for us, thank you for posting
I will wait to see him get a Head Coaching job. But I will not hold my breath.
Did you actually watch the Venables postgame interview? Thank you sir, that's what I thought .... I rest my case, lol.
Did you?
I googled it and read it. Maybe you should have before prematurely "resting" anything. And maybe you need to get some fresh tin foil.
"The way that you’re defined as a champion is how you play throughout the year,” he said. “You’re not anointing anybody anything right now — us as a defense or certainly this as a football team, or in the other locker room. It’s a long year, and the best players and the best teams, they find a way to continue to get better and they grow from the adversity, and that’s where real growth happens – not through going and beating somebody’s brains in 50-0, some directional school."

Agreed. Their defense was as good as any elite team in the country. You allow 3 points, you SHOULD win the game.
