With his boys on the team and budgets being devastated from COVID, I don't see this as the year to make the jump.

Yeah, tons of speculation about Texans too. Coach V would be miserable in the NFL and he knows it. Tyler and Jake coming into their own, think he wants to finish that out first.
Double his salary and give him lifetime contract with guarantee he's Clemson head coach when Dabo decides it's time. He's happy, stress free and has all the leeway to develop/tinker with schemes... What else would one want. Dream come true.

Dabo has already shown he will do things his own way. It

wouldn't surprise me to see him elevate Coach Venables to a true "Co-Head Coach" position, taking a corresponding pay cut to allow Venables salary to be increased, if that is what it took to keep him. He knows how good the chemistry between them is, and how rare that level of trust is in the coaching profession.

Now is not the time to be doubling salaries . He is a good coach but the defense's performance lately has been less than stellar considering the talent he has imo.
Skalski not playing much in the national championship game, unless there was some really solid reason other than scheme, was also very bad judgement. Maybe he was injured but if not, then you got to consider that as an awful move.
I have not seen the discipline or fire from the D this year like ive seen in the past. Not his best coaching year.

Hey Cornflakes,
Your point about increasing salaries is well taken. However, I disagree about CBV's handling of the defense. First, Skalski was playing in the NCG and was dismissed because of a targeting penalty. Also, the defense has been debilitated with many injuries this year. In addition, the offense has put more pressure on the defense in the last three games with two scoop scores and one pick six. And the inability to come up with a first down at the end of last week's game put the game in the hands of a weakened defense. Nothing wrong with CBV's coaching. Injuries have really taken a toll.

..some guys are not head coach material and he’s one of them. A defensive genius, but not much for interviews and all the soft stuff that a head coach must be great at.

Besides having his boys playing for him, his girls will be mad if he leaves Clemson before they finish college.
