I don't think there is a plan to have TD play again this year unless it's back to full time starter. I don't think it's HCDB's choice either.DeVito must feel like he’s in purgatory.
That’s why I’m still shocked when people say Td will play a role outside of an injury to shredder. He won’tI don't think there is a plan to have TD play again this year unless it's back to full time starter. I don't think it's HCDB's choice either.

Yeah, I was all like - it’s Tommy Time now!! Just like back in the day against FSU or UNC.
TotallyAnd then Shrader & Peña had that HUGE scoring play, and I was like -
OK, maybe we don’t need Tommy here after all.
While it is absolutely, unequivocally, undeniably true that Tommy is a vastly superior thrower than Garrett will ever be;
HOWEVER-
what he’s not, is able to avoid a rush and extend a play, and then MAKE A PLAY.
Shrader s ability to virtually always make the first rusher miss, AND then still keep the play alive and have a chance at positive yards, is what separates him from Tommy, like they are on opposite sides of the Grand Canyon.
Being a good thrower is nearly irrelevant IF you can’t make a throw because pressure causes you to go into survival mode.
Exactly... Tommy would have gotten killed yesterday.Yeah, I was all like - it’s Tommy Time now!! Just like back in the day against FSU or UNC.

If he plays another game would it prevent him from being a redshirt candidate?I don't think there is a plan to have TD play again this year unless it's back to full time starter. I don't think it's HCDB's choice either.

He already had a redshirt year, so it doesn't matter how many he's played in.How many games has Tommy played in? I don’t think he reached four.
I don't care how many great athletes they have, put 4 WR like Estime, Philips, Etta, and Ishmael on that Syracuse team, it's a blowout.I think Shrader knew how well Clemson was spying/containing him. It wasn't like with other teams where they had to overcommit to keep Tucker in check, requiring Shrader to make only make one guy miss to get into space. When he did scramble he rarely had room to turn upfield. I think I saw him throw more passes away today than any other game so far. Clemson's athletes are just a different animal than anyone else we've seen. For all the problems they have on offense, their defense is the same as ever.
What does that have to do with the OP and my response to it?I don't care how many great athletes they have, put 4 WR like Estime, Philips, Etta, and Ishmael on that Syracuse team, it's a blowout.
