Clemson will face NCSU tonight at 9:00 PM in Greensboro in the nightcap game of the first round of the ACC Championship. Clemson is seemingly a lock for the NCAA Tournament, with this year having what is being described as a “soft bubble.” Which doesn’t make a lot of sense to me, but whatever. A lot of people are insinuating that NCSU will be playing for Sidney Lowe as a loss here could be a tipping point for his job safety. I don’t doubt that they may be playing hard for ol coach, but I think NCSU holds off on him for at least another year or so.
Clemson should be playing with a little bit of fire after the absolutely lackluster effort versus Wake Forest last week. Trevor Booker was manhandled and should be out to exact revenge.
In other news, Dabo Swinney is ALL IN SOLID ORANGE CLEMSON DETERMINED SPIRIT SLOGAN SLOGAN SLOGAN for scrimmaging opponents in the spring. “Let’s go play Georgia,” Swinney told reporters at practice earlier this week. Hell yeah, let’s go play Georgia. State article is here.
Oh, and we’ll be doing some sort of big ass NCAA Tournament bracket pool pretty soon. What service (ESPN, CBS, Yahoo!, etc) would you guys like to use for the pool? Let us know in the comments. Thanks.

Happy Stalk the Fuck Out of Teen Boys Day. The best place to follow the minute-by-minute updates is probably one of the pay sites like Rivals or Scout, but Tigernet has a pretty decent update page of when kids sign on the line that is dotted.
We’ll be back with a wrapup this evening. STAY TUNED.

- Looks like Tennessee snatched up Kevin Steele, reportedly tossing three times as much as he makes now in C-notes. Not surprising with the recent heat between Dabo and Steele. Also, I’ve heard that this could be due to the long standing fact that TDP is notorious for letting coaches walk out the door and not giving head coaches in any sport enough money to run their teams internally the way they should be run. Stay tuned folks. The CUAD is keeping mum on the subject until ink is actually on paper. It is now being reported that Kevin Steele will remain at Clemson. Some say he was offered 800k a year at Tennessee, up from his current 375k a year at Clemson, and that the Tigers provided a suitable counteroffer.

All Tigernettish “Gaines had a big heart” mockery of the situation aside, the autopsy showed that he had suffered from cardio myopathy. It likely led to the heart attack he had early yesterday morning. Drugs don’t seem to be in the picture.

I thought I’d share some of his best moments at Clemson. Damn. RIP Gaines.
