You close practice for your fan base but ........

you have the coaching staff in from a major college program that you have a high probability of seeing in a bowl soon. As a matter of fact put up black block out on your fences to keep some interested fan of getting a glimpse of your practice but open your books, show your talent, and hell for that matter serve lunch to the coaches of Ohio State.
Crazy stuff happening in college football today. Not only at Clemson but some real crazy stuff going on.

I don't think it's so much so practice will be a secret

As it is that some fan will watch one practice and assume they know the players faults better than the coaches

You remember that time Hayden Fox showed his old mentor around Minnesota State; even shared his playbook. Came back to bite him when they met in the Pineapple Bowl.

It's a safety issue. If you open practice
Mar 28, 2013, 12:41 PM

To the public, you get the true fans but you also get the trash that wants free entertainment. It puts players and coaches at risk. You would have to boost security which is more money. It's ok to share ideas. Although it is the plays you may be teaching an opponent, if you don't have the athletes to beat the team that knows the plays, you have more problems. Yes it would be neat to view practices, but In the world we live in, you cannot let just anyone in your practices.

Coot practices are open because no one is going to spy on that offense and they are required to be open to the public. They are using state corrections money to get their players to the field.

What I mean
Mar 28, 2013, 3:06 PM
[ in reply to "In the world we live in"... What's that mean? "The horror.. ] |

First off, I am a history teacher, so I base a lot of my thought on what I deal with every day which is safety for children and trying to figure out why things happen in history. So what I meant by the world we live in is in the world we live in, you have to worry about the what ifs and what could happen. So I believe that could be a reason why they don't have open practices. I could be wrong, I just know that's what I think about when I think of reasons why practices are closed to the general public.
Makes sense to me...

Other schools are not having a safety issue. Two that come to mind are SC and Georgia. Their spring practices are open to their fan base. Are you saying Clemson fans are less competent. I don't think so!

Why would t-netters need to see the practices? We already know everything about this program. Besides, if they fixed everything like we have requested, then nobody would have anything to complain about. That won't work for me.

Other coaches don't typically tweet practice updates
Mar 28, 2013, 2:32 PM
|
|
or take pictures of practice like fans will.
When other coaches watch practice they are looking at things like practice organization etc. They've talked the X and O in the film room.
Just like every other profession, coaches know what to share and what is your competitive advantage that they keep to themself.

In the immortal words of Allen Iverson...........
Mar 28, 2013, 5:16 PM
|

Iverson: "If I can't practice, I can't practice. It is as simple as that. It ain't about that at all. It's easy to sum it up if you're just talking about practice. We're sitting here, and I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we're talking about practice. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we're talking about practice. Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game last it's my last but we're talking about practice man. How silly is that Explaint?
Huh??

Nobody has the talent to simulate our offense.

No matter who we face in our bowl game they will have 12 or 13 game films to review. I'm doubting our coaches would tell them anything that they couldn't learn by reviewing those films.
Yeah, I said, "NOBODY," including the chickens, injuns and leghumpers!
