Beau on That man is old enough to remember when Florida State was all-girls, and apparently some Nole fans carry on that proud tradition by continuing to be whiny bitches.
The other day, Deadspin picked up on this hilarious photo from Rivals of the Dabo Swinney Fantasy Camp or whatever it’s officially called, we mentioned it on our Twitter feed (I WILL NOT SAY THAT I “TWEETED” IT), it was seen in the forums and around the web. This morning, Tomahawk Nation took their turn with it, and couldn’t help but continue their completely unsubstantiated claim that Clemson coaches lied to FSU recruits with this caption:
About the 12 player thing, never mind that scholarship numbers wouldn’t have prevented more signees without a loss of scholarships for existing players (a not uncommon practice at some *cough SEC cough* schools), Clemson only signed 12 and that doesn’t seem like many so let’s not look into it any further but to mock them for their small class. Ha, see, we mocked you for your small class. Also never mind a mid-season coaching change or the inevitable recruiting shakeup that is bound to occur because of that, they only signed TWELVE it’s hilarious, they couldn’t even cop a baker’s dozen.
Anyway, back to that whole claim about lying to recruits, if you recall from the earlier situation detailed in this missive from Willy Mac and myself, TN used a bullshit anonymous source to claim Clemson coaches were waging a systematic misinformation campaign against Florida State by lying to recruits about the possible ramifications of FSU’s NCAA sanctions. Then, desperately grasping at straws in an attempt to legitimize their claim, they tried to use a single nebulous line from an ESPN interview with a recruit to prove their claim. Then they whined like fucking babies that Clemson should issue a formal apology to Florida State.
What is hilarious to me is that, not only did they essentially fabricate a situation, then use a quote from a recruit off an ESPN article with absolutely no inference of where he got the idea in his head that FSU’s sanctions might be big ones and attempted to use that quote to tie it back to their original messageboard gossip-level claim, they now look back on that situation and somehow in their Garnet colored glasses Dabo was “caught with his hand in the proverbial cookie jar.” Seriously? They’re reflecting on the supposed situation of several months ago as if it were an actual event. Really? If by “caught” you mean “not seen anywhere near or documented by any reliable source,” and by “cookie jar” you mean “complete fabrication of your imagination” then sure, I guess you’re right!
The commenters on that site are really something special, too. Usually that kind of gathering of backslapping, guffawing bufoons ends with a cookie covered with cum, here it just ends in comments that remind me why I’m glad we don’t write for SB Nation and why I wish crib death was far more common in the Florida panhandle.

Anger, i see, is your strong suit.
I disagree with most in saying that this “fantasy camp” is a bad thing. It might not be someone like Tom’s cup of tea, but there are many of us that would give our left testicle to suit up.
But I also agree that it looks terribly silly to the internets.
However, I have no idea what a Deadspin is and couldn’t care less what TomaFawn Nation writes. They’re obviously gay (and i mean that in a “they sucked my cock through a glory hole” type way).

@1 I’m glad you learned to count that high in Southern Alabama (Tallahassee)…Also, FSU is a bunch of whining babies, maybe if they filled up that craphole they called a stadium and actually started to care then maybe I would respect their fans, but when I was down there this year I was treated like crap, their fans were a joke, and all they did was taunt us(Clemson fans) instead of cheering on their team.
Classy? No! FSU is full of redneck morons who couldn’t get into the good Florida schools…At least you have hot girls there to fall back on, but hotness only takes you so far…

@4 Fill up the stadium? Not this year, on top of raising prices, they’ve also fucked a select few of us out of our seats and are moving us (to comparable seats) since they are moving the visitor sections and some of the student sections. Last I heard sales were down another 6,000 tickets.
Oh and we had to renew blindly since “seating assignments won’t be made until June.”
We’ll see if I like my new seats, but if not, I’ve got an HDTV, no lines to my bathroom and whatever food I want in A/C in 2010.
As for the rest of your argument, I’ve met plenty of jackass Clemson fans too, every school has them. As for rednecks, not so much. Jackasses sure, but not rednecks.

@6 That’s a shame y’alls prices are so high, I’m getting sick of Clemson’s prices going up also. Until we actually have a great season I don’t think price hikes are in order.

@5 Thanks for commenting, first of all. Overreacted? Clearly I was aiming for that, as I tagged the post under “overreacting.” Also, I’m perfectly calm. Calmer than you are.

Florida State fans are ripping on Clemson for allegedly cheating when they’ve been CAUGHT cheating year in and year out? You know its December when ESPN starts putting up headlines for how many FSU players are suspended for whatever lower level bowl game they’re in that year. God, you beat a team 4 out of 5 years and they finally get one and look how cocky they get. Let’s just hope you can field enough players and you’re aging head coach can get ‘em fired up enough to duplicate last years success against us. Also since we’re just throwing out insults about things that have happened in the past…DILLARDS.

@9 – Come on. From here on out, if you’re a Nole fan and want to comment on this post do me a favor: Stop. Think it over. Is it really worth the time? Come up with something better and with actual thought to it. You should have just hit us with, “Nuh uh, you’re stupider.”

Am I the only 1 that remembers what happened in ’93? That’s when they acquired the nickname:Free Shoes University.Not to mention how hilarious it is to see them on probation for cheating after the way Papa Bowden’s fat troll of a wife took cheap shots at CU in the media after we finally wised up and canned her son Tammy.
