Dabo is the problem

Myself and a few others have been saying this over and over and getting blasted and called coot and all the other lame names the pumpers have.
People can blame Riley/Cade/Wes and whoever else but they are the issue… Dabo is the issue. I’ve read so many threads with people saying they’d rather lose with Dabo than use the portal with somebody else.
How do you feel now? It’s not fun getting smoked like this. Just think… 5/6 years ago this type of performance would have been unimaginable but with each passing year and refusal to use NIL to acquire talent and not use the portal it’s getting consistently worse.
I’ve said it on here and I’ll say it again… we will never sniff another national championship with Dabo at the helm. He flat out refuses to play this game the way it’s played today.
Also… Georgia is absolutely not the #1 team in America. They will lose 2 or even 3 games this year. Mark this post and watch.
Appalachian St next week will be a full 4 quarter fight and it won’t shock me at all if we lose and honestly that may be the best thing that could happen.
It’s time for Dabo to go. His pride is destroying this program day by day. You have to use the portal to compete with the big boys you just have to. You have to use NIL to acquire the 5 star QB to compete with the big boys.
If you are happy with 8/9 wins a year then yes you’ll continue to be happy but anytime we get matched up with an opponent who’s better than us we will lose and lose badly just like today.
A lot of you buy that BS from Dabo that theirs nobody in the portal better than what we have yet Georgia took a transfer WR from VANDY and used him to scorch us. So a guy from Vandy is good enough to play for Georgia who has had the #1 recruiting class for like 5 straight years but theirs not a single guy in the portal that’s better than what we have?
Dabo is the problem. He’s been the problem and will continue to be the problem no matter what he’s done in the past. He is not worth 11 mill a year and it’s not close. The game has passed him by.
Look at our recruiting class for right now. It’s all guys on defense propping up the ranking. We have no elite skill players committed to an offense that can’t crack 200 yards of total offense. You have to pay for the offensive skill talent.
That’s why we’re recruiting and taking 3 star QBs like Tait Reynolds and the other kid from Alabama I believe. It will continue to get worse with each passing year under Dabo until even the talent we do have is gone.
Dabo is done and his time is over. It’s time to move on and hire somebody that will do what it takes to effectively use every resource available to win. For 11 mill a year… we can d@mn near pick the next HC.
The greatest era of Clemson football isn’t ending today… it ended 3/4 years ago and it’s just taken everybody else time to truly let reality set in.
Dabo is the problem… bottom line and I really don’t care if you disagree.

SOMEBODY........our 30 year old AD needs to have a serious conversation with Dabo about how he needs to adjust to the new era of CFB...........Dabo at least deserves that. If he doesn't like it or refuses then he's welcome to walk away.

TLDR but you took the time to respond?
This coming from the guy that swore Alfred was making his commitment video to Clemson while the kid was selecting Ole Miss.
lol bro you are part of the problem. You are the moron that refuses to admit what you really know deep down.
Dabos time is over bc he has flat out refused to change.

Bro he was, ole miss bought him last minute. Cade is the problem, he waits for a player to be open to throw it Vs throwing to a spot. Waiting to see them open and throwing, then they are not open. We need a QB, plain and simple.

Ok, I'll bite. If Cade is the problem, then why doesn't Dabo say so. Either way, he's the problem right now because he wants to be stubborn.

We’ve had a QB.
DJ was a 5 star… never got better. Cade was a 5 star… isn’t getting better. We’ve changed coordinators assistants personnel. We’ve changed everything except the one common denominator… Dabo.
Blame Cade all you want but we’ve been running this same offense for what 15 years? Everybody else has caught up and knows what we’re going to do.
Dabo said himself out of his own mouth last year that Riley was brought here to run the Clemson offense… that’s not Riley’s offense it’s Dabos.
Riley and Cade aren’t the problem. Dabo is the problem for refusing to fill gaps in the roster. He refuses to use NIL to recruit the 5 star skill talent required to beat the big boys like Georgia.
You can say what you want about Alfred but he was never coming here. He used us to get Ole Miss to increase their offer which they did. That’s why we have 1 little 3 star nobody WR committed and nothing else.
Gideon Davidson may be a good one but other than him? No skill talent in this class worth a d@mn. It will gradually get worse with each passing year.
If you want to follow Dabo and go down on the sinking ship then so be it but for those of us that spend tons of money on this program… it’s not good enough. I will not give another cent to this program until we start using NIL and the portal the same way EVERY OTHER PROGRAM IN AMERICA except the military schools are doing.
I’m not alone in this I promise you.

Why did he get every snap today?
Oooooh, because Dabo refused to give Vizz or Pearman a shot.
Ergo, Dabo is the problem.

How much do you donate to the nil collective? All the people that want to blame dabo for not getting in the bidding wars need to put money where there mouth is.

Clemson already brings in a lot of money. No need for more. One of the highest paid coaching staffs in the country and they put this crap show on the field.

Same question to you? If you not willing put your money up. Let others decide how they use their money. Clemson does not have deep enough pockets to compete in the bidding war. Maybe you will get your wish and we fire our complete staff, bring all new coaches on the cheap so we can buy a couple top transfers seems like Colorado has it figured out.

We do not bring in NIL money to compete. We are starting to climb up but look at our recruiting classes and you’ll see we don’t have the money to pay big players nor the money to get them through the portal.
ACC is one reason and our fundraising is behind a decade now

Hire me for 10 grand a year and I promise I’ll put a better product on the field than what Dabo has allowed.
Our coaches aren’t the problem. Dabo is handcuffing them completely. He is the problem and I guarand@mentee I and many others on this board could not do worse for a lot cheaper than 11 mill a year.

Haha… I see your one of those guys that thinks football coaches are smarter than everybody else just bc they coach football.
So you must think that only the police know the law and not regular citizens. You must think only a chef knows how to cook right? See my point?
Just bc Dabo is the HC doesn’t mean he knows football anymore than anybody else that’s been watching playing or coaching this game their entire lives.
A coach is only as good as his players. It’s about the jimmys and joes not the x’s and the o’s. And now with NIL in place and Davis refusal to use it to acquire talent… it’s only going to get worse.
I promise you this is going to get worse before it gets better.

I see you are one of those guys that has never coached a game of football but has played madden. Thinks he can out coach paid professionals that do it for a living. You should probably apply for a head coaching job Im just guess a crappy coach like Dabo gets paid more than your current salary.

Response is every person has to be trained or have years to learn from mistakes to be good at something. You believe people do not need experience or need to be trained. I do not understand what response you want other than most people in the world would disagree with your belief. You are NOT on the same level as Dabo as a football coach. Are you smarter I have no idea but with your responses I have lots of doubt.

I would hope a trained police officer would know the law better than most citizens. I would hope a trained chef would how to cook better than a McDonalds chef. But I guess the whole world has been wasting time and money to be trained at a profession. Every post you make proves your ignorance.

Disagree. It’s the OC and play calling.
Recruiting hasn’t been a top priority either. Especially for the O-Line which has needed help even when we had better players across the board.

“How do you define commitment? Not a value of yours I see. I’m all in all the time”
I can understand posting this if you were some kind of PR bot. I can’t grasp how you could post this and think you made a point.
Your response will determine if you’re a bot or an idiot. Here’s how:
1. If you double down you’re a bot.
2. If you ask me explain it then I know you’re an imbecile and I’ll actually have to explain it to you (lol.)
3. You come up with a third option because I knew what you would think and how you would say it.
Ps: You will either go with number 3 or not respond at all. I don’t care either way

Yeah, I only started watching Clemson in 1978 and been a diehard since, and I am still a diehard and after today it is clear we are no longer in the top tier. If we are happy with 8-4 or 9-3 seasons then we can sit back and talk about the old days and how we were elite. NOT ANYMORE.

Garbage is hyperbole. 6-0 at half and then you get beat straight up by the number one team in the country who has arguably the deepest roster in college football. It’s morons like you asking for mass changes anytime something doesn’t go your way that have ruined program after program the last twenty years. Saban redefined everything and it’s a standard that is not sustainable. To think dynasties should be the norm is absolutely ridiculous. Coaching overturn has never gotten immediate results. Why not just enjoy the ride we had, and live with 8-4 to 10-2 seasons until all positions fall into place? Especially when we can improve over the next 3-months with a team motivated because they know they could still make the 12 team playoff. If you respond, tell me what you want the administration to do honestly. Who would you hire and what is your expectation? If you can’t give me an honest answer, you’re clearly just running your mouth looking for this type of response.

He’s considered untouchable and no one wants to risk offending him.
Dabo has publicly threatened to leave if he doesn’t feel appreciated. No AD or president is going to risk the backlash that would ensue if Dabo got offended by what one of his bosses said and left.
Unless, of course, things get so bad that Dabo’s grace period from our elite run from 2015-2020 ran out. Then the risk would at least be calculated.
I don’t think it’s worth it yet. Too many fans think he is the best coach for us and don’t desire any change. And I certainly don’t want him to leave, but he absolutely needs to make some major changes in how he runs the program. That’s obvious to anyone paying attention.

Bingo. Let Dabo stay and completely destroy his name. We can let him go and rebuild is quicker today. I'd make sure his reputation ensured he never earned another head coaching gig. His arrogant and trying to deflect his own short comings on his fan base that pays a lot of his salary. #unethicalman!!

He will lose a game like this by 30, but will find a reason to say the fans are the issue because we demand too much and he has done soooo much for the university. It’s like he wants everyone to believe no other coach can come here and do better than him. We have incredible fans, facilities, and an outstanding university. We can get any coach we want and we deserve one who can win at the elite level.
Changes are needed if this team doesn’t go at least 11-2 with an ACC championship with a trip to the playoffs. We need to demand to be Elite. If Dabo doesn’t want to be Elite, nothing is stopping him from going to a school that doesn’t demand that. Remember Terry Don fired Tommy Bowden for the same reasons and it’s time to give Dabo the same ultimatum.

I'm still processing what we saw today, and honestly, I think I'll need a couple more games to form an opinion comfortably. I did see a few things that looked better, but obviously there is no overstating the outcome. All that said, I do want to believe that if the trajectory of the program is in trouble, those admin/AD's would atleast have a frank and honest discussion with Dabo about changes they expect him to make. At minimum, he's owed that from respect. From a practical standpoint, maybe he is willing to take that directive, follow it, and use it to improve Clemson.
And somewhere, nagging at the back of my mind, I'm like "is there something to this portal view" that the entire world is missing but Dabo has it figured out. I don't know. But I don't want him leaving anytime soon, especially if he's willing and able to make changes that get results.
Frustrated and confused, but still a grateful Tiger.

Agree, but Dabo is treated like a god by the local media, the administration, and the majority of fans. He knows it. He’ll just use his “I’ll just leave if you don’t appreciate me!” And everybody will shut up and keep ground hog day going that is Clemson Football.

You Dabo is the problem guys are out of control. Dabo is the only one that can get us back into contention. We do not have the money to compete with the current model of college football and it is what it is. Yes, Kirby only uses the portal to sprinkle in (11) new transfers in the 2 deep lol. What do you think that 11 new guys but also the #1 class in America cost? More than our Alumni can afford to match for sure. We have missed on our last two QB's for sure. If we flipped the #1 for #2 Cade vs Stroud we are in the final 4 the last 3 years.

Go away cult follower. Fans like you are quickly becoming outnumbered and you know it. Dabo Era is ending and it isn't going to be pretty. For 8-4 or 9-3 he shouldn't be making 11 million a year. Cut his pay by 2.5/yr and put it towards NIL. watch the program rise again. It's a business now. He isn't willing to play the game so go away and he can take his sheep with him!!

Dude I have been on this site since 98 and a fan since probably before you were born so I wont go away but I will disagree and say that to run off the most successful coach in Clemson History because we went 9-4 and trying to figure out the landscape the right now probably not.

You my friend are absolutely correct. 4 years of this junk and people will blame everyone but Dabo. Dabo made us great, but that was a different game then. The game has passed him by. He didn’t adapt, gambled on doing things his way and it failed. Now we look like a Tommy Bowden program.
Dabo can still rectify this. I 100% believe that, but he has to start accepting his way hasn’t worked and make big changes in how he approaches this off season. Portal use for starters, coaching changes and player development need to be his top focus. If he doesn’t, we need a change if we want to be an elite program again.
If we like being “little ol’ Clemson” , going 9-3 and getting blown out by elite teams, Dabo is a perfect coach for us. So, it’s time to decide what direction we go from here. Try to be elite and make a change or accept being average. We have had 4 years of this and we aren’t close to competing at the top level anymore….we are average, plain and simple.

You think using the portal would have made the difference today? Seriously? Unless you're bringing in Patrick Maholmes and the Kansas City Chiefs, how much money are you paying to not only match but to get better athletes and players than what Georgia has right now???
A portal player or two might be the difference in beating Florida State and winning the ACC (how did the Seminoles look by the way last week?) but it would take more than a portal player or two to beat Georgia.

Where did I ever say that not using the portal is the ONLY problem?
I never said that. It’s just one of the MANY problems Dabo has created by publicly acknowledging he doesn’t need the portal.
Dabos own mouth is what has backed him into this corner and now he will look like a total hypocrite if he starts using the portal and that will be used against him.
Dabos pride and mouth are what have helped to create what we’ve become. An above average football team that happens to play in the weak ACC which will allow us to keep winning 8/9 games a year and Dabo can keep pointing and saying see… we’re close… without ever actually being close to national championship contention.
If we do win the ACC and we very well might bc it’s just that bad… we will get destroyed in the 2nd round of the playoffs no matter who we play.

Yes, the portal is only a part of the problem, but his attitude towards it shows the big problem.
His ego, arrogance and refusal to adapt sunk the ship he did such an incredible job building.

TigerRag since you spend tons on this program I assume you are fighting mid town traffic on your way home. I do disagree with you and glad you don't mind. Dabo was given time to build the program, and boy did he build it. Frustrating as it is, I am willing to give him more time to re-build the program.
