Getting Bryant and Ferrell back is awesome. Getting Fields and Joseph back is simply more awesomer. :-)
This is not me being a Debbie downer cause I'm going to love every minute of another National Championship run. HOWEVER, next year at this time, while we very well COULD be celebrating our 2nd National CHampionship in 3 years, there will be a little sadness. Clemson's defense will be losing Ferrell, Bryant, Lawrence, Huggins, Robinson, Joseph, Fields, Yeargin, Register, and possibly Lamar, Muse.
That's a lot off one defense, even though we will be returning a LOT of the 2 and 3 deep.
On offense, Hyatt, Falcinelli, G. Williams, Richard, Renfrow, Fuller, Choice will all depart.
What I'm trying to say is. The beat goes on, players graduate, and new players come in. The constant are the coaches that are coaching and training these young men to go out better than they came in. Thank you Coach Swinney, Coach Venables, Coach Scott, Coach Elliott, Coach Bates, Coach Conn, Coach Reed, Coach Hall, Coach Caldwell, and Coach Pearman. The best in the land, bar none.
