Will Shipley with some praise for Beamer

[18IsTheMan]

"It stinks losing to your rival. It definitely does a little bit more than the other ones. It's one you're going to remember; there's no question about it. But hats off to South Carolina. Coach Shane Beamer's got great program brewing over there, and he's doing some really, really good things."

I'll say this for the Clemson players/coaches, they seem to be manning up after the loss. Haven't heard any excuses.

 

[TopHook]

You know Dabo has one in the holster just waiting to be used.

 

[princebombs]

He's definitely the least arrogant ******* on that team. They got dominated physically, but he did his part.

 

[18IsTheMan]

Maybe. What I saw is he said we flat-out earned it.

There's a ton of mutual respect between Beamer and Swinney, so I doubt either one gonna do/say much to disrespect the other. I believe Beamer said Swinney was one of the first to congratulate him after he was hired here.

I Don't believe a damn word that fool says

Then that says a lot more about you than it does him. It was a classy remark on his part. The sporting world could use more of it.

It means I don't forget.

 

[Cock-n-Lateral]

I sensed a much greater mutual respect and appreciation for each other both during after the game Saturday. Hell I think they appreciated finally having a really great game.

 

[Go Gamecocks]

There's a ton of mutual respect between Beamer and Swinney...

Don't think Swinney cared much for Steve.

 

[Section2Cock]

Every time Shipley carried the ball I was like “he was so close to being a Gamecock”. He’s where talent meets toughness.

 

[DrMickeySC]

Shipley is one tough dude. I still can't believe how few carries he got late in the game. He drove me bonkers every time he turned a two yard gain into a 7 yard gain, but I certainly appreciate the kind words.

I agree ... there is much more to life ... Dabo has evolved, so to speak ... I remember the "staged" interview ... I remember the speeding ticket received and how he and his brother defiantly stood outside the truck when the arresting officer told them to get back in their vehicle ... I believe he felt the pressure going against a legend in SOS and thus his actions and such ... he obviously did not care for WCM and had Trevor Lawrence attempt to run up the score against the Gamecocks ... but last year, he called off the horses and yes, he and Beamer definitely respect each other ... it is GREAT to see ...

That 5 in a row was hard for him to swallow. Steve didn’t forget and neither do I. Dabos rant after we beat him at home was something like: they are not THE University Of SC, we are. USC is in California and Carolina is up the road in Chapel Hill.

 

[StillH8FATBRAD]

Shipley is a good kid. Been dealing with him whooping my team's *** since my son played him in hs. He went yard on the opening kick off against my son's team when he was a sophomore

They wanted to run the score up this year if possible because they needed to impress the committee, which they definitely failed to do. I wouldn't blame them if thy had been able to.

How about "trust but verify."

Shipley can't believe how few carries he got in the 2nd half either. He was the ONLY offensive weapon they had who posed a real danger to us. He was pissed off during and after the game.

He should be. He was the only good thing on that team and they went away from him in favor of that qb.

Whoa. Whoa. Hold the phone. I was referring to the remark made by Shipley, the player. I got sways to go with Dabo after his written out, well rehearsed Carolina comments after he misconstrued Todd’s comments to be SOs.

More likely a planned, coined response that Dabo knew would be scrutinized. Dabo is a snake oil salesman.

I understand ... I mentioned that (as you read) and that is why I note he has "evolved" ....
