I love Dabo but it feels like Groundhog Day. Same thing, another season. This is 4 in a row now. It would be easier to take if we played more than 2/3 decent to good teams a year. It sucks to say, but it’s the truth.

Ohhhh but that man has a way with the words and make them sound like they were handed a special gift by losing that game Saturday night. If he was to ever get into trouble with the law, the prosecutor would have his hands double full with trying to get a conviction on Dabo bc he could make the jury believe that that the police started setting him up years ago by getting people to lie on him, and he would be found not guilty, and the jury wouldn't even know why they found him not guilty!!!!

Some great points Alfred… Too many little things offensively and defensively to name but I’ll say I’ve watched the boulder coming downhill every game this year…no it absolutely was not just the reserves struggling…it’s 1s & 2s also.
But I dearly love and respect Dabo…I believe he is the right head coach and takes us forward…
I think there are some coaches who aren’t our best option (not an expert but I have played ball) but he’ll get around to it…I believe in Dabo!
Go Tigers

I think that he will eventually get things back to working the way they should, but I truly believe that before that happens, he will have to let 3 more people that he loves look for a job where they can fit in with other coaches that have years more experience than they do so they can learn from them and get better as a seasoned coach!!!

Agree. There were so many bubble screens Saturday night, that I thought they were honoring Rob Spence! That scheme seldom works. It seems the shine is wearing off the ball at Clemson and Coach Swinney or the AD are about to have to face some harsh realities. I think Josh pate has the best take currently on the state of affairs with Tiger football.

The headline doesn't reflect what Dobo said. I was expecting real details, and it was just more lessons in life. Good lessons in life, which Dobo is good at articulating, but void of football or football lessons learned. Still love our university and the Tigers, but I've adjusted expectations for the program in terms of wins and losses, and playing for championships going forward. I can't lie, it's a bit depressing.

I agree that coming down from where we've been just a few years ago, it has been really depressing. But good fans will suck it up and try to be more patient bc I believe in our HC, and I hope that he understands how we're feeling right now, and he will make the necessary changes that need to be made in a hurry bc, these past 3 years have been really painful to watch!!!

He loves to talk about what was. For 4 years in a row now, he can only talk about what was.....
A. praying he stops using that veiled excuse. It's starting to sound a little juvenile. B. praying her gets us back to the "we are" statements, and away from the "we were" statements.
I love Dabo, but when half his presser is filled with the past, what does that tell you about our present?

The hardest part to take is when we were at our best, that is when we started hearing the best is yet to come. Please give us a hint to when that best is to come

Some Lessons Learned
Nov 7, 2024, 3:06 PM
|
|
1) Poor and predictable Offensive play calling, 2) lack of preparation, passion & effort from coaches & players after off-week, 3) nine weeks into season still not playing the best young players (e.g. Sammy Brown), and 4) disrespect for the Louisville program and Clemson alums & fans ...

The frustration is that this vulnerability (DE depth) was identified in the preseason. The only thing done to address it was by looking around the locker room and moving your best DT to DE. Pretty sure there were some player(s) available in the transfer portal that are better than what's currently available on the roster (0 - 2 star or walk-on). The skills to roster management has changed and it's becoming apparent that Dabo's not adjusting well. Maybe it is his lack of experience in this type of semi-pro system (we hypocritically call college football). All he has done is coach and played in the college level. Having never played, coached, or been apart of an NFL (professional program that pays player some type..of salary) system appears to be one of the factors making him resistant to change. (Maybe I'm wrong...IDK). Unless a miracle happens, there will be another season with no CFB appearance and another 9-3, 8-4 season. The BoD, President, AD or major boosters/alumni will have a big decision to make in the next few months. If in there eyes 8-4, 9-3 seasons (at 11mill annual salary for a head coach) are an acceptable standard, then so be it. Time will tell.
