1st, this thread is only to have random discussion on Jeff Scott's past/future. No right or wrong. Just opinions and thoughts. Hopefully no vitriol.
Reading the comments about JS working the football camps as a counselor has got me wondering about his future.
I think he was a great position coach and recruiter while on staff here. I do think as a CO-OC with Elliot, JS brought the "big play" parts of our offense. He seems like he was willing to take risks where TE was more conservative. A good Ying/Yang.
I'm wondering if the South Florida situation soured JS on big time football. He certainly lived through his Dad's career and now he has experienced up's and down's in his short career. I'm sure he made enough money to live comfortably wherever he would like to live.
Reading the comments about his counselor work makes me wonder if wants to work behind the scenes at Clemson as he still loves the game of football. He obviously loves the area. He wants to spend time with his family. He can still make more $$ than the average American. He doesn't seem to want a big-time assistant role or head coaching role at this time. It makes me think he can be a Woody McCorvey/Brad Scott clone. Kinda a Chief of Staff. He can still influence young people, help build relationships (which he seems to be great at), but yet not put in Head Coach or Asst. Coach hours. He can raise his family as well as doing a job or involved in a business he loves and his good at. And I do think he can somewhat challenge Dabo. Every successful business has a "glue" guy that is essential to the business' success. JS might be this guy for Clemson for the next several years
I think it's a win-win for all involved, Clemson FB and JS.
