I’m just gonna go ahead and state some obvious things

1) Venables is the best DC in the country. 2) Lawrence is the best QB in college football, and the best player at any position in the country. I venture to say that if all the current players were to be entered into a draft any coach with the first pick would choose him to build a team around. 3) Dabo had reformed the mold on what it means to be a successful coach. I’m not gonna argue against Sagan and his track record, but it certainly seems the path forward is Dabo’s style. 4) Skalski may or may not have an amazing NFL future, but his understanding of defense is one of the deepest of any player in our history. 5) Etienne should have his number retired the day after he graduates and leaves for the NFL. 6) We, as fans are simply spoiled. No matter how much we guard against it, we must stay vigilant to simply enjoy these days. We are blessed beyond measure.

Naaah don't retire the number - that tradition should be stopped.
We'll run out if numbers in the next decade if we retire numbers ?? retire the game jersey

Not sure I get the humor of this if it’s supposed to be?

Retire a jersey, never a number. Use the number to recruit great players to uphold the legend of 9

Great take .
Can't retire the number though ... these days jersey numbers and their availability are in actuality a recruiting tool ....as silly as that sounds to some of us .

I think no numbers should be retired, unless it just symbolic and some other great player can use it again.. Maybe there is another way to honor.

Very true we’re are so spoiled now. My Freshman daughter only knows the winning Clemson tradition where a loss is so rare she cried after we lost to Pitt. We need to really enjoy these days. Heard a stat from Packer Saban at Dabos age had not even won a Natl Championship.

It's easy for me to admit that the past 10 years of Dabo Ball has spoiled Me, but, being spoiled is much better than the hurt and anger that I felt over many games before Dabo Ball. I'll take spoiled anyday over 6-6, 7-5, 8-4 seasons!!!!

The ACCCG being in CLT and not going stinks. Looks like it will be the same for the next two. Did I say it stinks?

Two comments:
1. #3. Dabo's style is not the future. Coaches can try to copy his style, method, process, whatever. But, they can't be Dabo. Dabo's style works because of the character and integrity of Dabo.
2. #6. Yes, you are. Never, ever take it for granted or think of it an an entitlement. It is not an entitlement. It is a blessing.
