ACC SQUAD - The Clemson Tigers have FALLEN | Can Miami take their place?

·40 min·2 clips

Florida State's Mike Norvell deal still carries a $46.9 million buyout at the end of 2026.

Clemson gets the headline treatment. The football thread is plain enough: the Tigers' program has been called dead, and the squad says it needs to get into it. The setup sells a noisy ACC roundtable with local Locked On voices from Florida State, North Carolina, Syracuse, Miami, NC State, and California. It is not built for quiet, tidy radio. The intro promises scoops, breakdowns, an ACC weekend preview, and a conversation that might get loud, even though this excerpt spends more time setting the table than making the argument. The Miami angle comes through Alex Dono and the Locked On Canes setting, but the available transcript does not really answer whether Miami can replace Clemson. Nobody settles into a full football breakdown here. The useful thread is Clemson's status, ACC pecking order, and the group of conference voices ready to argue it out. The ads take up plenty of room. Every Dayer Club reads, a March Madness bracket-pool promo, Mazda copy, and Robinhood prediction-market language keep cutting into the football. Strip that away and the episode is mostly a setup for a bigger ACC power debate. The show wants fans leaning in before the hosts test the claim. Even the polished network close points back to the same hook: Clemson has been called dead, and the ACC squad is there to chew on it.
