As someone who hasn't been following closely ... what the hell happened to Clemson? Specifically the offense? They went from championship caliber to wet noodle.

Clemson was so consistent for so long because, unlike most successful teams, they kept their staff together. But then one OC left, then the other, the DC all within a couple years and they started going down. Then DJ played like ass (which could’ve been coaching but still) and they bottomed out. They replaced a lot of coaches and are hoping to come back now.

At least I think that’s what happened.

We kept promoting internally despite continued failure on the field. We had Tony Elliott and then Brandon Streeter as our Offensive Coordinators. We also haven’t recruited well for OL due to hanging on to our OL coach. When Dabo fired Streeter and hired Riley (and our OL coach retired) the entire Clemson fan base rejoiced. Even if we take the L here we at least have some hope which we didn’t have under Elliott or Streeter.
