First Impressions: Dabo Swinney stood out, even in loss to Boston College

They say first impressions are usually the right ones. My first impression of Dabo Swinney? Well, that is a story in and of itself. Full Story »

Ok, who did write that title? Also shouldn't that be, "has shown" rather than, "has showed" ?

TigerNet editors do, Crump probably at that time...***

OH man do I remember that game. Seemed back then

Bowden & Co. just couldn't get us over that proverbial hump in big time games.

Who wrote the headline?

Pretty sure Crump was the editor at the time.***

The best loss in Clemson history. Ultimately got us Dabo.


Apr 14, 2020, 9:36 AM

Second to that (could argue it had a better impact) was the WVU Orange Bowl. Got us Jimmy Greenbeans.

There's something in these hills.


Great article, David. But if you were so impressed with Dabo


Apr 14, 2020, 10:54 AM

then, why did you write that article later about being against him being our head coach?

I can't believe you chose that title for that article then.

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.


I was at that game. I’ll never forget it!***

Spence mostly ran vs BC's #2 run-D despite Harper's success.


Apr 14, 2020, 8:04 PM

Cullen Harper was successfully picking apart BC's mediocre zone pass-D but the "mad scientist" OC, Rob Spence used most of his play-calls running into BC's #2-ranked, brick-wall run-D full of future-NFLers (like Brice & Raji). With Clemson in game-winning field goal range, Tommy Bowden should have called a timeout to pick a safe play-call and remind Harper that the ball needed to come out of his hands right away with NO SACK. Instead they called a 5-step-drop pass play where Harper was sacked out of field goal range. Tommy took his timeouts into the locker room with his "L".

Fortunately Dabo fired Spence ASAP.

My son and I were at that game

Cullen Harper hurt his shoulder on that touchdown.
Got hit about the one and dove in and landed on it.
Seems he was never really the same after that, kinda
like with Willy Korn and in 2010 when Kyle Parker got
the dirty late hit at Auburn. A shoulder injury seems
to almost end a good player's QB career.
