Who is Venables main protege at Clemson ?


Nov 27, 2017, 8:51 PM

Dabo usually promotes within ... just wondering

My guess is Mike Reed given the other defensive guys are new.

your guess is a poor one

Reed is probably the weakest link on our staff

not saying fire the guy. he's ok as a position coach and a pretty good recruiter I just don't believe he'd be the guy to turn the defense over to should Venebles leave. if a team is going to beat us, they'll attack our corners. it's the weakness of our team (still not horrible, mind you). Dabo gave him some help by putting Mickey on the safeties and that area has improved despite having some youth back there.

If Venables does take a HC job I wouldn't be surprised if Mike Reed is named the DC.

mickey conn is the correct answer. lets hope he gets a few more years of grooming

Dabo isn’t going to leave to coach at Alabama.

I also think it is highly unlikely that Venables leaves yo become head coach anywhere - Kansas State included.

Coach Snyder, given how Venables feels about him(and pretty much all his former players feel about him), it may be hard to turn down.

I really think we hire a proven DC not somebody within. Not sure who though but many would love the talent we have to work with. I doubt BV leaves though but maybe he wants his own team. I know he and Dabo think differently in some things. I do think he prefers to just coach D though. Being a head coach is completely different I would imagine.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

^^^If we had used that mindset in 2009,^^^


Nov 27, 2017, 11:22 PM

CDS wouldn’t be our Head Coach now. Venables said he was looking for a place where he could feel like part of the family when he came here. He found that place. He’s not leaving any time soon

Re: ^^^If we had used that mindset in 2009,^^^

If Dabo used that mindset Chad or Brent would have never came to Clemson. You cannot hire within for every position.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I don't know who it is, but Dabo has already said he knows


Nov 27, 2017, 11:30 PM

who he will hire when, and if, the time comes to do so.

Just a thought here, but Chris Rumph was DC at Florida, and is looking for a new job. Would not be a bad hire.

That one would be an absolutely atrocious hire. Rumph has stuck his knife in Clemson's back repeatedly on the recruiting trail. It wasn't one episode or five or ten. Rumph is a self-promoter and a scumbag about on the same level as old Whammy Ward there at South Carolina. Trust me, Rumph isn't coming back to Clemson; those bridges are well and truly burned. Actually I'm pretty sure they're burned at most all of his prior stops too....

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Likely Conn, but Dabo won't promote him this soon.


Nov 28, 2017, 7:22 AM

He will go outside hire unless Coach V stays another 3 or 4 years.
