FINALLY, something newsworthy. Our boys travel down to Myrtle Beach for Coastal's Regional. The tournament is set to last from June first through June fourth. Let's just hope that they'll at least be playing on Sunday. The tournament itself is set for double-elimination. We start with St. John's at noon on Friday and the winner will play the winner of the Coastal/VCU game on Saturday at 4pm.
The winner of this regional will go on to play the winner of the Tallahassee regional. Best case scenario for us is for Florida State to lose their regional. If this happens and we win out this weekend, we could be hosting the super regional in Clemson which would be huge. The team has really struggled this year and I'd like to see them gout out with at least a little bit of spark.
Again, sorry this is not funny or exciting, but hey... at least nobody's whipping their dong out on a golf course in this post.

CLASSING UP THE JOINT
Sure the photo is a couple days old, but we figured we'd spread it a little further as Tigernet has been zapping every mention of the photo. Why? I have no idea. We all know that one of the ways Sakerlina lures quality coaches to their school is to promise them a membership at Augusta National, courtesy of Sakerlina grad Hootie Johnson. Who knew they also give special privileges to said coaches like the ability to make their own water hazards? Yeah, you know it's a slow news cycle when all we have to post is some guy pissing. We'll get back to regular posting sometime soon.

JUST REMEMBER HOW BAD ASSED WE ARE
I've been doing nothing but watching all these highlight videos of our opponents all spring long. All our follies, stupid plays, and terrible game plans. I've fed off of our failures and bad plays that we made at the end of the season. Nothing but anger, just hatred running through my veins. Then, YouTube reminded me who we are. Up with hope, down with dope. Bring it on FSU.
Death Valley... 126 decibels... nuff said.
TIGERS FARE WELL AT THE DRAFT
All in all, five former Tigers were drafted in the seven rounds of the NFL draft last Saturday and Sunday. Five more of our guys were signed as undrafted free agents.
Drafted were the following:
Player........................Pos....Team......................Pick...Round
Gaines Adams...........DE.....Tampa Bay............4.........First
Anthony Waters........LB.....San Diego.............96.......Third
Dustin Fry..................C.......St. Louis................139.....Fifth
C. J. Gaddis................DB....Philadelphia..........159.....Fifth
Chansi Stuckey..........WR...New York Jets......235.....Seventh
Undrafted Free Agents signed are as follows:
Player...............................Pos....Team
Sergio Gilliam.................DB.....Minnesota
Nathan Bennett...............OL.....Carolina
Reggie Merriweather.....RB.....San Diego
Duane Coleman...............DB.....Buffalo
Marion Dukes..................OL.....Miami
So far, 10 out of 19 of the Clemson players that worked out for pro scouts were signed to teams in the NFL. Several others, mostly Roman Fry, Will Proctor (believe it or not, he had a very good spring), Jad Dean, and Thomas Hunter will more than likely receive invites to training camps and tryouts for various teams across the league.
Rumors abound at Fan Nation that Gaines Adams might hold out to get more money on his contract, but can you really blame him with what happened to A. J. Hawk last year? I'd get as much money as possible up front. The NFL is a cruel multi-million dollar beast that chews up players' bodies like tic tacs. Plus, who wouldn't want to swim around in millions of dollars like Scrooge McDuck?
