I want to believe its happening but I wouldnt doubt if you are correct. Maybe Dabo cuts Riley loose and some of the nepo hires. Maybe not. What im the most terrified of is getting the same result as this season. IDC what happes this off season if we beat LSU at their place and get rolling.

You kids talk about "change" but never what that change could be. Dabo is our coach and either you accept that or you don't. Compare our record since Dabo took over to other schools during that time period and than look at our record and ACC Championships of the 15 years before Dabo took over and you may have you eyes opened.

— Look at how much money Dabo and staff earn (even relatively speaking) compared to previous coaches and that might open eyes too.
I use this analogy all the time: Just because you spent every Friday night for years paying for Outback doesn’t mean you can’t complain at Ruth’s Chris when you get a raise and increase your dining budget.
Clemson has had unprecedented success under Dabo, but the school has absolutely paid for it too.

What you and others somehow are not able to comprehend is that this is not the same college football it was 10 years ago. This version of college football is completely different, where roster management is among the most important roles for a coach. Dabo was excellent in the old-school “raise those boys to men” “dance after an embarrassing win against Troy” era. Dabo does not know what the #### he’s doing in THIS ERA and everyone without a sunshine pumper infection can see that.

then you would FOR SURE have seen "WHAT CHANGE COULD BE"..........EVERYONE has said what the change SHOULD be.
Nobody's questioning the accomplishments of Dabo, but what's RIGHTFULLY questioned is his ability to COACH/run a program in THIS ERA OF CFB b/c the 5 year falloff has been DRASTIC, our record OOC has been PATHETIC since 2021 and our overall record vs "decent" P4/5 teams since 2021 has been ABYSMAL.
you're the one with your head in the sand w/ your eyes closed.

If Clemson was a stock it would be down 35% - 45% and the shareholders (in this analogy Clemson Fans) would be hounding the BOD (in this analogy the Clemson BOT) for a change in leadership. Dabo is in a perform or perish business and for the last few seasons he has been in a downward spiral. I am rooting for Dabo but honestly think he is too stubborn to change to fit todays haphazard NIL/professional player model.
I would explain the changes needed but you are too old to understand.

The logic behind all that can follow one of two lines. 1. Dabo really doesn’t think there are big issues and this season is just an aberration. 2. Dabo is ultra comfortable, not feeling any risk of losing his job. Or both, perhaps. IMHO, either leads to failure.

I agree. A couple of changes in assistants and maybe 6/7 portal players is all we are getting. 1 qb that's a 3-star for depth, 2DB's 2 DE's, and 1 DT. I would be pleasantly shocked if its anymore that that.

Sadly 😥 I agree with you. Clemson actually needs double the 6 or 7 amount of portal entrants you alluded to.

if Dabo doesn't make any significant changes during the offseason and next year is a repeat of this year (or worse), I think he will be asked to take his talents elsewhere.
We will probably end the season at 7-5 and possibly end up 8-5 after a 3rd-rate bowl win, but that still won't change the fact that we lost to some very weak ACC teams this year and struggled to beat others. Our best win will probably be USC or FSU. Not too bad if you are Wake Forest, but unacceptable for one of the highest paid coaching staffs in the country.

I don't see beating SC unless SC implodes on its own. Very possible, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Could have told you that after game 2. Been saying Dabo needs to leave ever since and nothing has proven me wrong, including his most recent comments

Dabo %100 doesn’t need to leave, on the other hand, he needs to fix the problems within this program, wich are many , or he or the administration will make that decision for him.Not us on Tigernet. I love this school and football program as much as or more than most people.That will not change because of who coaches this team. Go Tigers

In Dabos eyes there is nothing to change just a little bump in the road this season. He’s not changing he’s already letting us know in his press conferences. It’s done rinse and repeat next season
