Blockbuster & RadioShack

I’ve mentioned this before but it’s the best analogy I know that fits our program.

Dabo is the CEO of Clemson football and should be treated as such. When a CEO refuses to correct course and follow market trend, they have to face their board and answer to said results.

Dabo refusing to adapt with the times (portal & NIL) is not different than blockbuster and RadioShack refusing to adapt to the digital world. Anyone been in a BB or RS recently?

Dabo has earned his chance to correct course and/or prove his method is working (past 4 years) but that time should be dwindling. S#it or get off the pot. This program is not Dabo’s to sink, no one is bigger than the paw. I do not envy Neff and the position he is in.

I previously got blasted by some of the Dabo cultists here for using a similar analogy.

Best horse drawn buggy maker refusing to switch to automobiles when Henry Ford started mass producing the Model T.

Both are about people refusing to adapt to paradigm shifts.

Radio Shack and Blockbuster had customers just like any 1 else.

the customers stop buying .. the business couldn't/wouldn't change and went out of business



Stop donating to IPTAY .. that may force a change.,


BUT

Clemson will NEVER go out of business.

Geville Tiger on Clemson football , "Dabo's only problem is he has to deal with turd fans questioning every move he makes.”


True. The Amish still make high quality horsedrawn buggies.

They don't, however, make the Car of the year. Ever.

Recruits are the customers in this scenario and they’re shopping elsewhere.

Be careful. If you are suggesting Dabo is too proud to change and adapt up the current times, he will climb back on the pedestal and reprimand you and no longer take your calls on the radio show.

I really miss Radio Shack***
