In today’s environment, there’s just so much uncertainty.
If we can keep the nucleus of this team going into next year, I like our chances to make a deep run.

He seemed focused on next year with his answers.
But nothing would shock me.
Hope he and Cade and rest of returning starters come back.

Comfortable? He and his wife's family, his boys families, his boys future kids, his mom, and whoever else he chooses could live comfortable and not work another day.l unless there has been some major mismanagement.

Clay is a sophomore. Dabo is here for at least two more years.

His contract runs through 2031 and jumps to roughly 12 million per year on the back half of the 10 ten years. He's not going anywhere until all his sons are established as coaches or in some related enterprise. Sure all are aware that Will and Drew are with the team on a path to become assistants at some level.

At what point does the money stop being a factor?
By his own admission, he’s been smart with his money.
I don’t think that will factor into his decision.

It doesn't? Are you people just so rich that you have no concept of money? I keep hearing this crap. Money won't be a factor for Cade or Dabo. Bull ####### ####. He can set up generations of his family with one year's salary. Why wouldn't he keep taking it?

At this point, he’s probably making more money in invested interest than Clemson is paying him annually. I don’t think money is a driving motivator as he’s already set for life

I live for the day that Dabo tells the idiot fans to POUND SAND and walks away!!!!. This cry baby group would then get EXACTLY what they deserve …. 4 win seasons. Not meant for all on this board but the amount of fair weather fans on this board is pathetic. Rage about 10 win teams so will be fabulous to watch them with 4 win seasons!!!!

Bro are stupid? Dabo Swinney is not the only man on this earth that can win football games at Clemson.
I wish you knew how f*cking stupid people like you sound when you say moronic bs like this.

How many of those other coaches had the immense resources he has had?

Hatfield had boosters actively recruiting against him.
West and Bowden had to endure terribly outdated facilities.
Make no mistake, Dabo deserves tons of credit for what he has accomplished, but let’s not act like he fans had a ton of help and support that other coaches didn’t.

He only has resources because he wins not the other way around. Some of you are either dumb or just pot stirrers.

What are you talking about? Danny Ford won a title and had multiple ACC titles.
Plus we’re a different Clemson than we’ve ever been. We are now a national brand and we have money regardless of what some of y’all think.
Just bc Dabo walks away doesn’t mean we’re going back to cellar. They’re plenty and I mean plenty of big time guys that would come here for the money we pay and they would win.
My point is… Dabo is not the only guy in the world that can win at Clemson and some here act like once Dabo is gone then Clemson is dead and that couldn’t be farther from the truth.
It’s ridiculous how people can just assume we’d turn into Wake Forest just bc one guy leaves.
Clemson University is bigger than Dabo Swinney. Clemson was here before him and Clemson will be here long after him and the rest of us.
If Dabo hung it up tomorrow I promise you… we’re going to have our choice of top guys. There may be 10 guys in college football that we couldn’t get if that.

Of course he isn’t the only one.
But let’s not act like his tenure here is easily replicated here or anywhere. I f it was that easy to hire a HOF coach, everyone would do it

I would thank him for being an outstanding coach and leader of our program.
I would think about how we can best honor him (statue, stadium naming, etc.).
Then I would turn my attention to who our next coach will be.
No tears shed. No clutching of pearls.
Clemson football would be fine.

Dabo also seems excited about revenue sharing.
I thought his comment about not being good enough right now to win it all demonstrates his realization of where we are and his desire to get back to the mountaintop.

If it were only about football that's understandable.
However. I really think Dabo believes he has a higher calling to " develop young men for the future " And that's what keeps him around

Wouldn’t be surprised to see some changes on defense though. I just don’t see enough fire on that side of the ball.
