REINTRODUCING D.F.I.G.

Welcome to Danny Ford is God, the best Clemson Blog on the internets. If you’re viewing this, chances are you saw our big ass sign at ESPN College Gameday. Thanks for visiting. Your hosts are myself; Chili, a recent Clemson graduate now working in Atlanta; and Willy Mac, a current Clemson student and lifelong fan. This blog was created out of the need to fill our free time, to be our mouthpiece on the internet, and to provide an alternate forum for Clemson information than Tigernet or Rivals or any of the other boards and blogs out there.

The name is a tongue-in-cheek homage to the great Danny Ford. It’s a play on Clemson fans’ rock-idol like adoration of the former coach. Danny represents a bygone era in Clemson football that we’ve since been striving to revisit, minus the NCAA violations. He was largely a personification of Clemson life. He’s a good old country boy who made it big, but never turned down a beer at the Esso. To this day he lives on a farm outside Clemson and rents a house on the property out to Clemson students. We don’t really think he’s God, but he’s a helluva guy and it made for a good and memorable blog name.

We criticize a lot, so if you want the family friendly Clemson coverage that always tows the company line, go to Tigernet. If you want senseless, poorly constructed rants, hacky jokes, and incessant hating, you’ve come to the right place.

Here's a number of our favorite posts over the last couple of months. Catch up, or not, that's cool too.
