My dream is to one day be retired from football and have enough time to be a sports writer. Football is where my heart is at. I love writing about the sporting news from week to week. I started out writing about English class and my points and views in there, but I decided that wasn't for me. It has been interesting watching this years college football season and expressing my views on here. I hope that one day I can express them in a newspaper. I hope that my writing has maybe help tell someone what is going on in sports. From Clemson University this is Landon Walker signing off.

Football Season almost over

The Fall seems to fly by with football season every year. The first kickoff of the season seems to fade very fast into the bowl game. The cold weather really starts to let you know it's coming to an end. As the NFL playoffs approach and the college bowls start, it was a good one to talk about. You can't really explain the happenings of the 'o7 season. It has been one to remember for years to come. Although it's over their is always the promise that next year will be just as exciting.

Pressure

Any sports fan knows how much pressure a coach is under when they take a Clemson job. Clemson fans expect you to win the games that you have to win no matter what. Clemson fans don't like putting up with a coach who can never get them to the promised land. They want to be returned to the Danny Ford days again. So when selecting a football coaching job, Clemson is always one of the scariest.

Tommy Bowden

Clemson fans don't know really where to stand on Tommy Bowden. He finished this year with nine wins and a peach bowl game. They still expect him to win the big one no matter what. I think that he is under pressure every year and maybe he is getting tired of it. He is scheduled for an interview with the Arkansas Razorbacks. Tommy Bowden's future is in the air. Will he sign a extension with Clemson or finally move on.

Clemson Community

I feel like I fit in great with the Clemson Community. It is a great community that cares a lot about its football. Clemson is one of the most upbeat College towns around. I feel like I am at home when I am in Clemson. The atmosphere is unlike any other, and I will continue to enjoy it for four years.
