It feels nice seeing Dabo correct some of his recent hiring decisions. The best is yet to come.

Maybe the "Friends and Family" Plan is being canceled?

"Being"? Only reason Grisham is still here is we don't want to lose any recruits before NSD.

Screw Calford.

Weird that it works so well on Defense but apparently only is a negative on the other side of the ball. It's almost as if that statement doesn't really hold any water and is simply a lazy take.

Yeah, maybe Dabo would’ve finally gotten over the hump and won a championship. Oh well.

poor hiring and talent evaluation led to the last 3 years.

the friend and family program didn't work as well as hiring qualified coaches for a top 10 program.

Its always interesting when fans see a problem then assign something to blame. FWIW most issues have multiple causes...

If you're attributing the problem to talent evaluation, then that problem started prior to the last three years.

It's stupid to think about that now, just be happy that moves are being made.

He's mostly made great hires. I trust Dabo to bring in great coaches to replace Austin and Hall.

Agreed Leon. At least he's making changes. Been stubborn, but he's loyal to a fault. Some coaches just go down with ship.

Again, feel bad for all these guys. Think Hall will be able to find another gig--I know Dabo will help him & Austin

Not quite. The process that built the greatest era of Clemson football is simply evolving. The greatest head coach Clemson has ever had is adjusting his position. You have to play the game to find out where you’re coming up short in recruiting and development, and post-championship team slump is real. After our first championship it was over 3 decades; under Dabo you can count the seasons on one hand. And yeah, we’ve had truly unsuccessful seasons since the mountain top. Under Dabo, that means four losses and missing a couple conference title appearances. We should be nothing but grateful for what we have been given

He took too many inexperienced guys at once. All these guys may become great coaches but they needed more time in the oven so to speak. Can't have an entire staff of potential with no expierence on one side of the ball.

Look at Napier. That was a bet Dabo made as he saw the talent. Sometimes it still takes experience to fully realize the talent.

but correct, it is nice to see him continue to adjust his staff as he feels necessary.

Anyone that has hired a few people has made mistakes. The interview and references all checked out, but somehow, they ended up not working out.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

correcting hires that he shouldn't have made is refreshing to see from Dabo

He hired a bunch of unproven coaches in a short time frame. He's fixing it.
