Dabo is 161-38 in 14-1/2 seasons at Clemson. That's an 81% winning percentage. Over the last 10 years, that win % goes up to 88%. 7 Conference championships. 2 national titles. 8 top 10 finishes. 6 top 5 finishes.
Now, following 5 disappointing losses over the last 2 seasons, T-Net is scattered with haters. Any comment by Dabo is met with "SMH" posts. All of a sudden, Dabo is an idiot. It's one thing to disagree, and we are all free and should be welcome to express that. I disagree, based on available information, with the way Dabo handled DJ this season. I talked about it on here. What's happening now is different; everything about Dabo is wrong. Everything he says or does is more heavily and vocally criticized. Dabo mentioned God. He talks about signing Bear Bryant's great-grandson. He doesn't like the transfer portal. He sucks.
What exactly is going on here? We will probably have another top 10 finish this year. We have a great QB coming back, we signed another top 5 QB, we have an excellent RB duo returning, a solid defense, and we should be looking at another top 10 finish or better next year. Dabo has almost single handedly built this, and spoiled us with this enviable level of success. Now we're shaking our heads out of puzzeled disappointment, or shame, or embarrassment, or disgust, with everything he says or does.
Do we have more dumb fans than I ever realized? Do that many Clemson fans not like Dabo, or not trust him? Or is it just Coots coming out of the woodwork?
