  • Time to Rename

    Seems like it’s time to rename this podcast “Clemson and Those Other Teams. In a 17 team conference to fixate this much on a single program is to narrow the audience. I rarely listen anymore. I scan the transcripts to see of other teams are mentioned and then move on. I’m sure that’s not what sponsors want.

  • Solid ACC Coverage

    I like how often the episodes are and have no complaints. Of course fans of specific teams want more coverage but doesn’t deserve 3/5 stars. I think it’s a solid podcast.
