Week 1 Game watch

heavily disagree. I would be legit STUNNED if dabo is the coach next year. And i don’t expect him to finish the year out but i recognize they may not want to cut him loose before the season ends outta respect

If things really start to implode, they might pull the trigger in-season.

We owe him a beatdown for 58-0 - full circle baby!

Dabo DID get Al Golden fired…..

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

Worst margin of defeat in Dabo’s tenure at Clemson (so far).

Cal #24 gettin hot

If Dabo is fired midseason I think they say it’s for health reasons.

I believe UNC will beat them in two weeks, so i have begun to question whether he will be on the field when we play them.

Yeah I can see Belichik beating them.

It’s crazy to me how Dabo is still a young guy but he’s so old fashioned

I gotta lot of respect for Lupoi on his Dan Campbell giving brothas an opportunity w/ both coordinator slots. Mfs are my age too

I believe this is because He’s literally been to two places his whole life. Well I guess 3. Birmingham Alabama, Tuscaloosa Alabama and Clemson.

Blessing and a curse cuz that old fashionedness also helped him be the second most dominant team of the 2010s

The thing that blows my mind about Clemson is the fact that people still believed they could be elite. Not as many, but they were still out there. People forget that those Clemson teams that won weren't just a quarterback show. They had absolute aliens on the d line and crazy talented athletes all over the field. They don't have anything close to that anymore. They are just another ACC team now.

Obviously dabo accomplished much more, but it’s interesting to look back at the circumstances at the firing of James Franklin which felt like the first domino.

A double OT, one-score loss to no. 3 Oregon, a 37-42 loss to a winless UCLA w/ an interim HC followed by an awful postgame presser, and lastly a home 21-22 loss to 1-2 northwestern (who lost to Tulane) which sealed his fate.

I write all that to say—these were some **** close losses to a team that made the final 4 the year before. Dabo went 7-6 the year before, including a loss to interim coach Terry Smith led Penn State in the bowl game.

LSU is snatching Clemson’s soul. I wonder if Dabo even makes it to our game. But i also just wonder how this firing goes down bcuz Dabo doesn’t want to retire.

The last time a championship coach was fired—at the school he won the championship at—was Gene Chizik at Auburn and Les Miles at LSU. Even Mack Brown fake retired. Urban Meyer and ed o are a little different to me because scandals were abound. Hard to find a lot of comparisons on how this will go down. Larry Coker is one of the more recent examples.

Dabo will be unique because he has two titles.

Ed O won a title at LSU and got canned like two years later. He’s the most recent title winning coach to get his walking papers

We should get Jarrell Chandler to flip before Tennessee does; and Seth Tillman may be the elite DT we need for this cycle.

PAC 12 after dark is back like it never left

 

[skyman]

Cal already breaking 20 year droughts with this offense

JKS is top 2 and he’s not 2 for 2028.

Michigan given a second left is almost as bad as Colorado’s fifth down back in 1990.
