Add Clemson coach to the list...

Add Clemson coach to the list... Down 3 with 1 timeout at 20 yard line of Miami on the road, 26 seconds left. Calls a run up the middle that goes to the 12 yard line. Instead of immediately calling timeout, he waits until 7 seconds left ticking on clock. Calls timeout. They reset the clock to 9 seconds. 2nd down at the 12.... After all of the fuck ups he made already.... He kicks the FG to tie it instead of taking free shot to win in endzone. How do these guys get these jobs?

im on clemmy cheesburger so i am not suprised they played for ot

amazing bad clock management

Add another to his stupidity... He has Miami defense absolutely GASSED. He wins the toss in OT. He lets the Miami defense get a break and sends his OWN defense out on the field first. I wouldn't let this guy manage parking my car.

If the kicker bricks the field goal, the kicker is the goat. If they lose in OT, then they gave it the ol' college try. $800,000 a year jobs don't grow on trees. [I][B]"Swinney to earn at least $800,000 as Clemson football coach Swinney's deal, released Thursday after open record requests from The Associated Press and other media outlets, guarantees him a base salary of $250,000 and outside income such camp fees and media agreements of at least $550,000. Should Swinney remain to the end of his five-year agreement, the school would pay him $750,000. Other benefits include a country-club membership, use of two fullsize cars and tickets to Clemson football, basketball and baseball games.[/I][/B]

He did mess up at the end of regulation, but sending his defense out first in OT is the right thing to do. You ALWAYS go on defense first. That way your offense knows what it has to get.

[QUOTE=chuck e;6908]amazing bad clock management[/QUOTE] Not really... He was at 27 yard line against the best defense in the country. This guy has his team at the 12 against a team he has scored 31 points against already with a young superstar up and coming qb...with a time out and against a tired defense. Yikes

[QUOTE=Shooter;6913]He did mess up at the end of regulation, but sending his defense out first in OT is the right thing to do. You ALWAYS go on defense first.

He didn't take advantage.

That's why you send your defense out first. I don't deny and I AGREE with you that he fucked up at end of regulation by not taking one extra shot. Sending your defense out in OT is the right thing to do. They hold Miami to 3. They get the ball at the 25. If they don't turn it over and gain zero yardage, then the worst case scenario is a 42-yd FG.
