The rarity of that working out is what makes Dabo's story so compelling. It's not a blueprint for success in general.

Well, to be fair, CJ hasn't been given a shot as HC yet. And the jury is still out on Tony.

what happens when you don't have great talent on the field.
Scott failed.
Tony is on the fence, struggling
CJ has not been impressive as a position coach.

Goodwin was proven. He had lots of experience, he did a better job while at Clemson than most all his peers did at other colleges. At the time, he was the best candidate for the job (unless you know more than Dabo).
Coaches (except for a couple) get hired and fired and re-hired every year.
Some improve and become a Saban, some don't.

Brandon Streeter is more "Clemson" than 99% on this board.
As a coach has "earned" more $$ than most.
As he develops, might again coach here.

Streeter did the best job with DJU of them all. Including QB whisperer Norville.

Look at his progress from his flop Soph year to his Junior. Streeter had DJU on a Heisman watch list when we were 8-0 and programming the best for him. DW4 and TL16 had their best years as players period under Streeter's guidance. Only Lincoln Riley had a better QB pedigree going for him over that stretch than Streets.

If you are impressed with Wes's resume, and think that it warranted being selected as DC you really need to look at the resume of Eason, Reed and Rumph. If you think Wes deserved to be DC ahead of these 3 men I just don't know what there is to say. We've seen the results of this idiotic decision of hiring hungry over hiring qualified.

Wes was a pretty good analyst, and that's about it... he wasn't the best for the job, Dabo never did a search for the best like he is doing now. Do I think I know more than Dabo? Well yes, on some things, if Dabo truly thought Wes was the best available. But something tell me he didn't think Wes was the best but would do and be a yes man. I knew Streeter was a bad hire, or promotion. Yet people like you told me the same thing, Dabo knows more than you. Funny, how did Streeter work out?

Including “and be yes man” marks this as drivel. You don’t just think you know more than Dabo, you think you have better character and would be a better coach. Which is, of course, moronic.

With defensive coordinator, you’ve painted yourself in a corner now. You cannot follow up a questionable hire that was a bust with another questionable hire. You have to go experienced coach route. You can’t throw a headset on Mike Reed and say “ look, I fixed it!”

-- of course you can. Dabo has a plan, a back up, and a back up.
Most overlook he was a high IQ kid in college.
He received his bachelor's degree in commerce & business administration in 1993 and two years later, he earned a master's degree in Business Administration.
He knows football, and has a high IQ beyond most here on Tnet.
I trust in DABO !

Please stop with this high IQ foolishness. He tried to tell us the same thing about Wes. Wes never played football at any level, never coached any position, no kind of record with recruiting or developing players , but somehow, he was blessed with some magical football IQ that made him smarter than defensive coaches on the staff with decades of proven experience? C'mon man!!! Give it a rest. Yes Dabo has made great accomplishments educationally and professionally as a football coach but let's squash this notion about him possessing some great knowledge because if he did he never would have made such a idiotic decision on hiring an analyst with no playing, recruiting or player development experience and try to pass him off as a DC at a major college football program.

“World class coordinators”
The one being demoted or the one barely removed from high school. It’s not just differences of opinion, you guys have no idea what you’re talking about. And for some reason you’re loathe to give Dabo the credit he has earned.
