I thank the sec for doing this just days before they play us. I imagine the distraction and all the extra noise won’t help LSU.

ESPN will certainly make it their main talking point alongside Dabo’s comments. Agreed that this is only good news for Clemson.

Makes me want to root even harder for Clemson to pull out the win

ESPN and College Gameday are going to twist themselves into a pretzel trying to report on this without acknowledging the fact that they have directly contributed to the current state of the sport, Lane being their media darling, and running point for SEC propaganda at the same time. The hoops they jump through on Saturday morning will be disgustingly historic

I'm sure you can spin it as "look, everyone in the world is against us!", but I wonder if the locker room may actually go towards "why are you risking our season over this shit?"

This, and I could also see an element of "why do we need to bring these NFL guys in, can't we win without them?"

Also a healthy helping of "Who the fuck is even starting beside me Saturday?"

Can I put my tix on IPTAY?

Yes, but the name is misleading, we aren’t paying ten a year anymore

Twenties? Thousands?

It’s like the Balogun saga leading up USA vs Belgium. We probably would’ve been better off having to play without him rather than deal with all the distractions and drama that came with his reinstatement. The same might be true for LSU, especially given the consensus that they were already going to be a very good team without any of these guys.

Dabo can become the hero of r/cfb for the first time since 2018

We shall see. I haven’t watched much preseason hype about us because I can’t believe it’s already football season

Quite the opposite actually. We embrace villainy around here.
