Let’s get this trending. Distractions appreciated!

Dabo Swinney: I haven't talked to Deshaun Watson, not thinking about Texans job

Before the Texans drafted Deshaun Watson, his college coach, Clemson's Dabo Swinney, said Watson's potential for greatness was akin to Michael Jordan.

I heard the only reason they fired O'Brien is because Dabo told Easterby he'd do it if they could hold out until after the championship without saying anything.

Which happens first? Dabo to the NFL or Dabo to Bama?

i know we’re here for the giggles, but that response is pretty odd for a simple question like that. Maybe I’m reading it out of context, but why would dude get defensive like that? Idk, maybe I’m just rooting for the distraction...

LOL after the championship? That's some ****yness by Dabo assuming he'll make it.

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Can't see it happening.

Dabo is a control freak, and the pros are a different animal.

I kinda scoffed at this.


But Urban went from UF to OSU LMAO. It's possible..

Yeah no way yabo dabo goes to the league. He’s a college guy through and through and will be at Clemson forever unless he wants the bama job after tricky nick

Texans would have to pay Dabo A LOT of money to get him to leave Clemson.

Maybe he's going to parallel Saban. Go to the NFL and be a failure, then go to Bama and live out his days.

Money talks, and **** like Dabo, walks to the Bank....

They have a lot of money. I wonder what Rileys buyout at Oklahoma is though. He's not off to a good start this year

NFL, I see him staying at Clemson over going to Bama.

Wait...what???

Pretty sure Nick Saban said he will not be the coach at Alabama, so how does this even make sense?

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Saban lite.

You ever hear the Zach Thomas Nick Saban story?

Dabo would get it 10x worse.

Doesn't Dabo already make $10M/year? Only NFL coaches paid higher would be Carroll and Belichick. Texans have no picks and are cap strapped. The Jets would make more sense. Lots of picks, take Lawrence #1 and keep it going

I don't know. This is my first made up rumor. Am I doing it wrong?

I’ve met quite a handful of ex Dolphins players and every one of them wanted to kick Saban’s ***. The day Zach got in his face it was all over for Saban.

Coaches Salary doesn't go against the cap so being cap strapped means nothing. I assure you the Texans aren't hurting for money
