Swinney 'saddened and disappointed' by Bryant transfer
by Brandon Rink
Staff Writer
Clemson coach Dabo Swinney addressed senior quarterback Kelly Bryant’s transfer intentions Wednesday after being demoted to a backup role this week.
"Obviously, saddened and disappointed that he has chosen to leave the team," Swinney said. "But I have absolutely nothing bad I can say about Kelly Bryant. He is one of the best young people I have ever been around. even though I don’t think this is a great decision. I certainly respect it, and it doesn’t change anything I feel for Kelly. I love him and care about him. I wish him nothing but the best.
"All I can say another program wherever he decides to go going to get a quality quarterback and a quality young man. We appreciate everything that Kelly gave to this program while he was here. He is a graduate. Like I said he is one of the best young people you could ever be around. It’s disappointing, but that is where we are. Something that he decided that he felt like was best for him, so you have to respect that. As far as the decision as a coach sometimes you have to make a tough decision that are in the best interest of the team and this is one of those decisions.
"And I would make it all over again because I believe it is what is right for our team. I felt like Kelly would have helped us continue to win and play a lot, but that is not what he wanted to do. I certainly could have started him this week which would have limited his options, but that’s not how we operate here. That’s not who we are."
Bryant announced his decision in a report by the Greenville News on Wednesday morning, saying that “I just don’t feel like I’ve gotten a fair shot.”
“They asked me how I felt about it,” Bryant told The News about a Monday meeting with Swinney. “I was like, ‘I’m not discrediting Trevor. He’s doing everything asked of him, but on my side of it, I feel like I haven't done anything to not be the starter. I've been here. I've waited my turn. I've done everything y’all have asked me to do, plus more.’
“I've never been a distraction. I've never been in trouble with anything. To me, it was kind of a slap in the face.”
Swinney addressed those comments.
"He’s entitled to his opinion," Swinney said. "I think we’ve given him a fair shot. I’ve tried to be as open and transparent with Kelly in the process, as I am with all players...I definitely think he's been given a fair shot. I don't think there's any question about that. At the end of the day, this isn't middle school."
Taking over and leading five touchdown drives in six possessions at Georgia Tech, Lawrence moved ahead of Bryant in pass attempts this season (60 to 54), throwing for 600 yards (to Bryant’s 461) with nine touchdowns (to Bryant’s two) and two interceptions (to Bryant’s one). Bryant was fourth on the team in rushing yards (130) with two scores, and Lawrence has nine attempts for 24 yards
Days after being moved to a backup role, Bryant was confirmed by the school to have missed a second-straight practice Tuesday. Per Swinney, he had been given Monday off after shortly after an “emotional” meeting.
Bryant started 18 games, with Clemson winning 16 of those, and he had improved his passing efficiency numbers from last season in the small sample size, but Bryant faced stiff competition from the five-star freshman Trevor Lawrence, who is now in the top-10 nationally in passing efficiency and yards per attempt.
The Upstate native Bryant is blazing a new trail of sorts as a grad transfer with the new redshirt rule, where a player can see action in up to four games and keep four full seasons of eligibility.
Bryant is a fourth Clemson quarterback to transfer since Lawrence has arrived on campus, joining Tucker Israel, Zerrick Cooper and Hunter Johnson.
Bryant and Swinney discussed a possible transfer on Monday, but at the time Swinney indicated that Bryant wasn't planning to go that route.
"We talked about a lot of things," Swinney said. "I’m not going to get into the details of our conversation. We talked about a lot of things. Like I said it was emotional. A lot of things we talked about. If I was worried about that or I was deceitful in some way or something like that. I could have huddle the coaches and said hey let’s make sure we start him for Syracuse that way he has got no options.
"That’s not how I operate. I don’t think like that. I don’t operate that way. I’m just trying to do what’s right. I’m not ever doing to apologize for that. We talked about lots of things. It was a deep, long, emotional conversation. It was something we needed to talk through and go from there."
Swinney said he expects the locker room to handle the decision fine.
"I don’t think it will affect us at all...These players understand competition," Swinney said. "Players play. Coaches coach. You don’t always agree with the decisions. You get back to work. You take what you’ve got and make the best of it. At the end of the day, this happens every year. A sophomore beats out a senior. An unbelievable freshman...beats out a veteran guy. This is not something that never happens. It just so happens that it’s quarterback this year. That’s just where we are. I don’t know what else to say.”
Lawrence will make his first start in No. 2 Clemson's Saturday noon home kickoff (ABC) versus Syracuse (4-0).

Welp Clemson's downfall is on track. That was some shady shyt Dabo did. He knew he had his tongue up Gay boy Trevor's ass soon as he got him committed. He went through the preseason. Saw how he looked. He could have been straight up and told him. I'm going to start him and let Kelly get his transfer own before the season started. Cacs gonna cac though.
This is sooo true. We ALLLL saw this coming when he said he was coming to Clemson. fukked up

Do you not know how the new transfer rule works now?
And how could the coaches have assumed TLaw would've been this good out the gate? They saw him outplay KB and I'm a fan of KB's game. shyt like this happens every season and now everybody can move on
Yo I guess there are some real young black men out there. I guess I don't need to give up on them. Most are so feminine and let shyt slide.
I love how Kelly told them fukkers the real and didn't do that take the high road BS. He got fukked over and let them know.
fukk Dabo country bumpkin p*ssy ass. Once FSU O line is fixed they won't be relevant anyway.

Conflicted on the whole KB thing but he felt pissed on so he said fukk it. Personally, if he think he good enough for QB in the nfl he need to dead that shyt. Tahj Boyd didnt do shyt and Kelly is a lesser version of him. Probably will be turned to a safety or corner.
He's a senior that has to take a redshirt. He could have been told after the spring game and went to another school. Learned their system for a year and then started next year. Or he could have went to JUCO like Cam did an kept playing.He fukked him on that option

And I know you can't be that lost to not know that when white people see a white QB that is tall and white they get their panties wet.
Dabo knew he was going to start him regardless. It's fukked up.
Clemson ain't going nowhere this year with this cac. So they might of have let dude start. He wasnt hurting them. They made the playoffs with him. It's not like this cac is going to take them to the Championship.
