We are less than two weeks away from kickoff of the 2018 college football season with this year’s version of the Clemson Tigers looking to avenge a disappointing season ending loss last year to the Crimson Tide in the college football playoff semifinal. In doing so the team will return with what is shaping up to be the most dominating defense of the Swinney/Venables era and quite possibly the best defensive line the sport has ever seen. In this ep the guys are back with part one of their yearly installment of player position group breakdowns, focusing on that defense and what they may have in store for opponents this upcoming season. Though depth may be a concern at certain positions the roster is loaded with elite talent that will look to improve upon its #2 ranking from 2017 and continue it’s run of dominance its enjoyed over the last few years. But will they be able to match last year's 11 sack game vs. Auburn (probably not)? Will a lack of depth cause Christian Wilkins to make a move to safety (no)? Does

As fall camp rolls on for the Clemson football team several true and redshirt freshmen are making their cases for earning significant playing time on what could be the most talented team in Tiger history. Whether avoiding a redshirt or cracking the two deep this veteran laden team will see its fair share of impact freshmen this year as both the depth and lack thereof will provide opportunities for them to see the field. In this ep the guys give their take on whom those standouts may be and, of course, that includes the quarterback battle which looks to continue on into the season.

The Clemson Baseball Team wrapped up the regular season and ACC Tournament with 45 wins and as a regional host, earning the national #10 seed in what has been a terrific season on the diamond. The boys of summer finished the season strong, winning 19 out of their last 22 games, but were unable to get past FSU in the tourney. Heading into regional play it will be interesting to see how this team stacks up against quality competition in what is a near mirror image of last year’s regional. We touch on the highlights over the past couple of weeks, including the supernatural play of Logan Davidson, and preview the Clemson Regional. Not to be outdone, Christmas came early this year for Clemson Men’s Basketball coach Brad Brownell and the team as starting guards Marquise Reed and Shelton Mitchell announced that they’ll be returning for their final season. This is huge news for a program that took a big step forward last year in advancing to the Sweet 16 for the first time this century and with 3 of 5 starters retur

Recruiting and Spring Headlines with Quacking Tiger by Clemson Pawcast

Not only did Clemson’s spring football game bring about a QB controversy of sorts it also brought out the stars as the Tigers inked 6 new 2019 recruits in the past week, bringing their total to 10. In what will possibly be the largest class of the Dabo era the coaching staff has begun to bear down on what should prove to be an exciting summer on the recruiting trail. In this ep we take a look at the newcomers and discuss Clemson’s needs for the recruiting cycle. On the diamond the baseball team showed up in Winston-Salem struggling as of late but managed to pull off a three game sweep of the Demon Deacons. The bats came alive over the weekend and the Tigers will look to keep that up in their march towards hosting a regional over the last 16 games of the regular season. Enjoy the show and Go Tigers!

Nick and Cody break down the Spring Game, gush over Trevor Lawrence, and consider Spring practice implications on the Fall depth chart.

The Clemson Men’s Basketball Team ended an incredible season and run in the NCAA Tournament with a close loss to 1-seed Kansas in the Sweet 16 in a game that saw the Tigers down by double digits for most of the action, only to pull within in 4 late and ultimately losing by that margin. It was a season of exceeding expectations for Brad Browned and his team as we now go into the offseason with a level of excitement leading into next season that this program has not experienced in some time. On the diamond, the Tiger baseball team rebounded after getting swept by N.C. State at home, going 7-2 over their last nine games as the bats start to show signs of coming alive again. There’s a lot of baseball yet to be played but still some holes to fill for Monte Lee’s team as they make a push towards the post season and vie for a Super Regional Bid. We cover it all in this ep and will look to transition back to football talk in the coming weeks now that basketball season is over and the spring game approaches. Enjoy t

How sweet it is, how sweet it is!!! The Clemson Tigers Men’s Basketball Team is dancing well into March after two dominating performances against New Mexico State and Auburn in the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament and is now on their way to the Sweet Sixteen for the first time in more than two decades. Clemson's three-headed monster guard trio of Gabe Devoe, Shelton Mitchell and Marquise Reed have been an unstoppable force early on as they’ve combined to average 54 points per game through the first two contests with Elijah Thomas dominating down low. The Tigers now turn their attention towards a talented but flawed Kansas Jayhawks team that was tested by 16-seed Penn and escaped 8-seed Seton Hall with a narrow victory. However, this experienced squad and storied program should pose the greatest challenge the Tigers have faced all year but, as we’ve seen so far, no team is safe in this tournament. Virginia says hello. In this ep we look back on the tourney run thus far and preview the Jayhawks as Clems

The Clemson Men’s Basketball Team is breaking out their dancing shoes for the first time since 2011 as Brad Brownell and the boys cap off a fantastic season with a 5 seed in the NCAA tourney. After battling Virginia to within 6 points in the ACC Tourney the Tigers face another defensive minded team in the Aggies of New Mexico State. Clemson looks for its first non-play in game win in the tournament since 1997, when they advanced to the Sweet 16, and to put an end to a drought that has persisted since the Rick Barnes era. On the diamond, Clemson baseball continues its hot start, improving to 15-1 and 3-0 in the ACC after a weekend series sweep against Georgia Tech. The pitching has remained dominant and the bats are starting to heat up in what could be Monte Lee’s best team yet. We’re back with an update on both sports in what is turning into a very exciting Spring for Clemson athletics. Enjoy the show and Go Tigers.

Spring is near in Clemson, SC, but Tiger sports fans are already budding with excitement over the success of the men's basketball and baseball teams as well as the potential of the 2018 football team as it is revealed in Spring practice. On the hardwood the men's basketball team bounced back from their first losing streak of the year by finishing the regular season 2-1 and tied for 3rd in conference play. The Tigers enter the ACC tournament as the fourth seed, securing a double bye and a match up with the winner of NC State vs. Boston College. Currently projected as a 4-6 seen in the NCAA Tournament, Brad Brownell's team looks to regain the momentum they had for most of the year. On the diamond, the baseball team sits at 11-1 after taking the season series from South Carolina for a fourth year in a row. Monte Lee is now 3-0 against the Gamecocks and has only dropped one midweek game in now his 3rd year leading the Tigers. Finally, on the gridiron, the QB battle heats up and several ncoming freshman stando

It may be March, but this is a 100% football episode, featuring an interview with Shakin the Southland's Alex Craft. We discussed the 2017 season, spring practice, and roster composition for the 2018 season. Enjoy!

Spring is near in Clemson, SC, which means it time to start talking about tournament basketball and the 2018 Tiger Baseball team. First, after a scintillating start to the season the #15 Clemson Men’s Basketball team has come back down to earth, suffering their first losing streak of the season as they’ve dropped their last three in tough fashion. The loss of Shelton Mitchell to a concussion late in the loss to Florida State has crippled an offense that has resembled Brad Brownell teams of old in losses to Duke and Virginia Tech. However, all is not lost as they hope to get Mitchell back for the last three games of the regular season and return to form in an attempt to make a deep tourney run. On the diamond, the #11 Clemson Baseball team takes the field under 3rd year head coach Monte Lee as the Tigers look to advance to a Super Regional and possible trip to Omaha for the first time since 2010. This years team is loaded with power with the return of Seth Beer, Chris Williams and Logan Davidson, among others
