What Clemson has, needs, and did. Duke recap.

With the Duke game in the record books, we can look back at what Clemson should focus on recruiting, what Clemson already has, and how amazing they did. Well as any Clemson Tiger fan knows, the one thing we have is Wide Receivers. The last two years, the Tigers have had some of the best receivers in the league. In the Duke game, "Nuke" had three touchdowns...in his first three receptions. Sammy had 98 yards and a touchdown. These clues lead us to believe Clemson is obviously a offensive team (Duh!), which is why the recruiting staff should focus heavily on the defensive side of the ball.
While the Tiger defensive looked above average on Saturday, I would say that was more of a Duke lack of offense. Through the season we have watched countless offenses get behind our linebackers catching a long pass for a touchdown. Even Duke was no exception to the rule. This should be one of the coaches and recruiting staffs primary concerns. Without a semi-decent defensive, Clemson will never be able to run with the big dogs.
