First off, I'm in a dynasty fantasy football league so I pop around the internet looking for even random schmuks' opinions on the draft classes when I'm bored. Here's the link:

https://fftradingroom.com/680/2025-Dynasty-Rookie-Rankings-for-All-Positions-

For anyone that doesn't want to give him clicks for whatever reason here's the TL;DR version:

• Cade is the #5 QB and rising. He has a blurb at the end
• Mafah is the #15 RB
• Williams is the #9 WR and rising. He's got a blurb at the end
• Briningstool is the #8 TE

The balloon post got me wondering this question. There are a few gripes with things in the stadium during games. What is the main one you would like to see changed first?

From Rivals.com national analyst Adam Friedman this morning:

It’s been interesting to read recruiting updates recently and hearing that our coaching staff is telling kids we are full. Thought it would be a good exercise to run through the roster to determine what our numbers should look like from a fan perspective (yes I know the coaches get paid because they know what they’re doing. It’s still a fun exercise for me!)

QB: Klubnik, Vizzina and Pearman should all return.
Target Number: 4
Should bring in: 1. Hopefully we can make a move on Baker.

RB: Haynes, Adams, Green and Eziomume should return
Target: 5
Should bring in 1. Though I could see one of Green or Adams moving on. We are bringing in Davidson and it’s possible Henderson could still play RB here. So I think we are ok here.

WR: Williams, Randall, Stellato, Turner, Johnson, Kelley, Wesco, Brown and Moore should all return.
Target 9-10
Should bring in 1. Technically only bringing in Preston make sense. I think Johnson could/SHOULD move on and I think Kelley ought to shift to CB. I’m good for going all in on Murph or bust.

TE: OPH, Sapp, Dixon and Bentancur should return.
Target 5
Should bring in 1. Done with Brooking.

OL: Linthicum, Sadler, Sewell, Thurmon, Reed, Young, Pennington, Johnstone, Leigh, Wade, ROC and Miller (hopefully Parks) are slated to return.
Target: should be 16 IMO
Should bring in at least four. Not sure Reed comes back and it’s possible we could lose someone who isn’t getting the PT they want. I’d shoot for five. Currently have Jacobs, Ware and Byrne committed. I’d be going after 1-2 more for sure

Specialists: should be good at kicker for a while! Not sure what to think about punter next year. Hold open tryouts? This is where I’d utilize the 105 schollies the most if it passes! Bring in a ton of guys to compete for these spots!

DE: Parker, Lawson, Denhoff, Hoffler, Patterson, Mayo return.
Target 7-8
Should bring in at least 2-3 in my opinion. This is the main spot where I’m very confused. Davis being considered an oversign is crazy to me. I’m guessing Patterson leaves. Woods should not be counted as a DE and neither should Caden Story. We should be bringing in a couple more guys here besides Watford.

DT: Woods, Green, Burley, Shuler, Story and Thompson return. Maybe Page and/or Cape could? Not sure on that one.
Target 8
Should bring in 2-3 depending on Page/Cape. We have Adams and Williams-Lee. I’d be looking for one more.

LB: Woodaz, Brown, McCloud, Crayton, Anderson, Woodaz and Kubah-Taylor should return.
Target 6-7
Technically just bringing in Anderson makes sense here though I’d anticipate defections. I’d be looking for one more.

CB: Terrell, Lukus, Lewis, Hampton, Strozier, Oliver, Gipson and Feagin should all return.
Target 8
Technically we shouldn’t need anyone here but I’m guessing 1-2 will leave due to being passed up. Littleton is on board.

S: Barnes, Covil, Billings, Griffin, Jones, Dixon, Webb, Wilkinson and Hanafin should return.
Target 8
Again technically we are full here but I’d imagine 1-2 are lost due to the depth chart. Tae Harris will push for PT immediately.



So after going through it all, I’d say the glaring weaknesses would be we definitely need a QB and I’d argue a couple more slots at OL and DL for sure. But I can also see why Dabo doesn’t feel like we have a lot of spots left either. Will be interesting to see how things change when/if the 105 schollies actually takes effect.

Thoughts?

Idiots on both sides need to wake da fuk up to avoid this...

I was recently gifted a "Clemson Practice Experience" and was able to take 3 guests with me to watch practice. I figured I could share what I noticed and talk about the highlights.

- Cade Denhoff was the first player to come introduce himself and was easily the most personable player we spoke to. He checked on my nephew before and after practice and was an overall awesome person. Consider me a Denhoff fan for sure.

- Chris Rumph specifically came over and carried conversation with us and is a great representation of Clemson as well.

- After stretches the whole team ran few "suicide" type sprints. Not sure what they are called now, that's what we called them in sports growing up. And they kept saying it was due to one player? Not sure on the details of that but it was obvious team-wide accountability is something Clemson still holds important. Coach Eason ran every rep with the team. He's certainly worked hard on his weight loss.

- Noble Johnson made play after play during his reps

- Some yellow jerseys I noticed were Mafah, Wesco, and Tre Williams. Mafah had his arm in a sling and was not dressed out. Didn't seem like a huge deal though. More like extra help for healing.

- Tink Kelley and Tavoy Feagin both made noticeable plays

- Adam Randall made a few nice grabs

- Brayden Jacobs was at practice with his dad. Brandon Jacobs is still a very fit and large dude. Actually spoke to him briefly and I couldn't believe he carried on a conversation with me as long as he did. One of my other guests is originally from NY and a Giants fan so that was a neat experience for him.

- Tyler Brown was

How do I found out if someone is lying about being a Navy Seal? Surely there is a way to verify?

I think I know what our answer will be but let's get it out there.

Can’t be 82-0 without being 1-0!

Hope Brandon Miller and Josh Green get back soon.

3 Things Still On The Table For South Carolina After The BYE Week

Saw where Beamer was at Irmo’s practice yesterday, any idea if Dabo or Grisham plan to do the same or if they already have? Thanks

Former Clemson WR E.J. Williams, who is in his second year at undefeated Indiana ... reportedly is entering the portal again.

He has two catches for 49 yards this season, the seventh-most catches among their wideouts.

Fifth-year guy, so he'll redshirt and seek a final year elsewhere.

A familiar quote from his Indiana coach over the summer:

“Still waiting to get him on the field,” Cignetti told reporters during fall camp.. “He’s practiced three times since I’ve been here (in the spring). Pulled a little hammy the last week of summer conditioning. So hope to get him back. Keep him on the field.

“The best ability is availability. You got to stay on the field, and that’s been his biggest nemesis.”

Witch spells

'He seems to have some kind of protection around him'

By Bob Unruh
October 23, 2024

There's no doubt that a morality foreign to America's Judeo-Christian foundation and longtime adherence is afoot on its shores today.
The Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration has made transgenderism, including the bodily mutilation of minors, and abortion, the lucrative industry of killing the unborn, among its top priorities.
Further, the administration routinely has orchestrated attacks on followers of the faith, sending grandmothers to prison because of their actions in pursuit of protecting the unborn, and trying to force Christian ministries to fund abortion.

So it's not a surprise that President Donald Trump, who has promised to reverse many of the Biden-Harris agenda points, would be considered by some to be the choice closer to God's desires for America than the Democrat nominee, Harris.
But now some speculation by witches, who have made their presence known on social media sites, is spurring that conversation.
They, in fact, are complaining about "some kind of protection" around Trump, making it so they cannot cast spells on him.

Trump himself has acknowledged that circumstance, especially concerning his escape from an assassin's bullet weeks ago. The bullet nicked his ear, causing it to bleed. But he explains that had he not turned his head at that very instant to look at a poster on stage at his rally, he likely would have died.

Online, "WitchesVsPatriarchy" complained, "Some other witches have mentioned that doing spells directly against tRump (sic) are not as effective as we might hope as he seems to have some kind of protection around him."

So the recommendation is to do spells "to help Kamala & the Democrats."
A report at Modernity News said, "A post on the far-left website appeared in a subreddit called 'WitchesVsPatriarchy' and features one of the witches bemoaning the fact that their spells aren't working on the Donald."

Reddit "Witches" are trying to cast spells on Trump but they're upset because he has "some kind of protection around him."

The report suggests Trump already "lives in their deranged heads rent free" because they want no more attention given to him, while giving him more attention.

He said, "You don't hear about the American Dream anymore. We're going to make it possible for them to have that dream again. This is a very religious evening to me. It really is. It represents so much. My sister was someone who loved the (Catholic) Church and gave to the Church. The cardinal knew that.

"Having recently, myself, survived two assassination attempts—yes, I survived. I have a chart that went down to the right. Fortunately, I looked at it. It's my all-time favorite piece of paper. It went down, and I looked to the right, and I said, 'Was that luck? Was that God?' I think it was God that did that. I really do."
Further, columnist Wayne Allyn Root bluntly said Trump has been chosen by God.
"He's not perfect. He's not a god. He's a human, although I believe super-human. But Trump is clearly chosen by God for this role, at this time and place – to save America and make America great again," he explained in a commentary.
"Like the heroes of the Bible, Trump is a courageous warrior, with a killer instinct, perhaps you might call him a Barbarian, chosen by God to FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT! And to protect our country, our values, and our childrens' future."
Root is author of multiple books and has a television show, "The ROOT Reaction" on Real America's Voice TV, as well as a weekend program.
His comments, he explains, are being repeated from 2016. But they are never more true than now, he said.
On social media, Trump said, "There's something going on. I mean, perhaps it's God wanting me to be president, to save this country. Nobody knows."

In a surprising and unexpected development, the Wall Street Journal has given credibility to “Pizzagate.” For those who may not be familiar with it, “Pizzagate” is a theory that claims elites use coded “pizza references” to openly discuss their hidden pedophile sex ring. According to this theory, terms like “pizza” and “cheese” are allegedly used as code words for illicit activities involving children.
Like many theories that paint the left in a negative light, the Pizzagate theory was swiftly labeled a “right-wing conspiracy” and disregarded by the usual suspects, and anyone who dared to mention Pizzagate was quickly shot down and called a Q-kook.
But now, thanks to this shocking article in the WSJ, everything could be turned upside down. Apparently, Instagram, owned by Meta, has become a sanctuary for a large network of pedophiles who use hashtags related to “cheese pizza,” among others, to communicate and pursue their sinister and depraved intentions against innocent children.
Gee, looks like the “Q-kooks” were onto something after all.

The term “cheese pizza” is used by these perverts because it shares the same initials as “child pornography.”
These are sick and demonic people.
Wall Street Journal:

The pedophilic accounts on Instagram mix brazenness with superficial efforts to veil their activity, researchers found. Certain emojis function as a kind of code, such as an image of a map—shorthand for “minor-attracted person”—or one of “cheese pizza,” which shares its initials with “child pornography,” according to Levine of UMass. Many declare themselves “lovers of the little things in life.”

The bombshell WSJ piece has rocked social media; as if so-called leaders like Mark Zuckerberg didn’t realize this was going on right under his nose? Perhaps he was too busy trying to punish Trump supporters for posting anti-vaccine memes to notice an expansive pedo-ring operating on his site.
Washington Examiner:

Instagram has taken down 27 child pornography networks and intends to remove more, Meta said. It has also blocked thousands of hashtags used to sexualize children and restricted the platform from recommending search terms associated with sexual abuse.
Twitter is also a standard tool for promoting child pornography, Stanford said, but the platform is more aggressive in removing those accounts than Instagram. The response has reportedly improved from Twitter. The platform struggled to keep up with child pornography accounts, according to a February New York Times report testing the website’s content moderation efforts.

This was all playing out on Instagram – this widely known “conspiracy” was unfolding every day, and no one took any action to stop it. It’s mind-boggling to think about what could have happened if those left-wing officials who quickly, and without proper investigation, dismissed Pizzagate as a hoax, had actually paid attention to the “conspiracy theorists” six years ago. Just imagine the countless children they could have saved from trauma.
Speaking of that, what’s the score now?
Conspiracy theorists: one million, and the Regime: a big fat zero? Something like that. As horrific as this story is, it’s a good reminder to keep fighting the good fight, because the truth always finds its way out.
