"I hope Dabo never leaves", they said during their little streak.
Well Coots, you got your wish.
BOOM!!

They also made the statement that they would even help to pay Dabo's salary if we needed them to. I don't think they're poor AS$ES have come up with a penny yet!!!

LOL, dream on Aggies, even before this contract, he would have approximately ZERO reasons to leave for that job.

I was thinking the same thing , I love Dabo the coach, but a 20,000 square-foot house to me is absurd . I have a wealthy friend who has a 6000 square-foot house for a family of four , and they use maybe half of it . My house is 1/8 the size of Dabo's future house, and we are happy as clams in it

rent a first class movie honey wagon
I just don't get a 20,000' house.
There likely is NO one to take over that if Dabo were to expire.
Maybe he will bequeath it to the Clemson Univ at the end of times.

I have a 2000 square ft house, and it's more than enough for me and the wife but, if I would have won the lottery, I would have a 10 to 15 thousand ft home with all the luxuries bc I could have it.

Dabo is using the house to recruit. Gotta have room to entertain that number of people at one time. Ten bucks says that was the motivation behind that size of house.

He said it before and expressed his commitment in a way everybody can understand. Even Tnet fell into the trap it's all about money. Nope, he's worth the investment in our football future, but he wanted us to know the commitment to the Tigers with his buyout insistence. Classic Dabo All in.

After we win Natty this year how will be restructure again?
Aug 25, 2017, 5:11 PM
|

A great run by Dabo and our Tigers, and love the man, but if every success will lead to upward revision of the contract (even before the ink has hardly dried on signatures of the last revision), my questions are:
1) how will we be asked to upgrade again in spring of 2018 as a Natty this year is a real possibility? 2) and when we have a down year, and Dabo himself says it is just a few plays from the penthouse to the outhouse, will that automatically trigger a downward revision in the contract?

Amazing how Tiger fans consider all discussions and raising of even legit issues by "coot calling", shameful really. I am proud of my Clemson University and my fine education and of my Tigers, I won't stand for every idiot fan calling me a coot, whatever that is.

Never understand if when people say this... 54 million reasons... doesn't make sense. 1 dollar wouldn't get him to stay at Clemson. Not even 2 million a year. Not even 3...

Jim Harbaugh has done zilch to deserve that sort of compensation. He hasn't won his own division , or conference or appeared in a NY6 bowl game .
I'm not a fan , if you were gonna ask.

And he's done so much for their program that I'm sure they think he deserves it. Wait! What has he done for their program, or Florida's or Auburn's? I couldn't think of anything either. He does have a really mean look about him all the time. Maybe that look is what is carrying him.

That's a nice way to give Alabama a sure and clear...

middle finger. Bama strung Dabo out for about a year according to what Dabo told Finebaum after the Bama/Clemson first national championship game.
On three separate occasions Bama either led Dabo to believe or outright promised him a job then screwed him over. It was nearly as bad as a man leaving a bride-to-be standing in the lurch waiting on his arrival for her wedding. It wasn't quite that bad but nearly as much a heart break.
So yeah, David, this was all about letting Bama fans know that the best coach in college football is beyond their reach. In 40 years of doing construction contracting nothing satisfied me as much as saying no with a number to bosses I just didn't like and want to work with. It's truly a gentleman's middle finger.

Seriously? Because $4 million a year is just testing the waters, but $5 million is turning up the heat? Now, $6+ is the pressure cooker? The whole idea is 'no pressure'...just 'grow where you're planted'...which he continues to do.
