Did we "have another great week of practice?"

So this is my very first post and it has to do with Dabo. The exchange between Tyler and himself was certainly more explosive than whats been put on the field this year. I personally think they were both wrong and both right. There was zero reason for questioning Dabo's salary and quoting scripture to him but heres what i think Tyler and myself would like to know. And it's a very simple question. I wont even discuss last year's end games and the lack of development of CK. All I would like to ask Dabo is this .... the things we witnessed in game one against Duke, the turnovers, no kicking game or special teams, the lack of any explosive offensive play calling which Riley was here to do, the refusal to use the portal .... we are now entering game NiNE and none of those things have been corrected. None. Not only has there been no improvement but all those issues have gotten worse. Dabo has said he accepts responsibility and knows the issues yet nothing has improved over the course of ten weeks. Should correcting just one of those issues take nine games?? Thats all i would like Dabo to elaborate on. And to his credit yes we have become a very spoiled fanbase. The winning wasnt going to last forever. I will end with this. I was taught in the military to never question authority without bringing a possible solution to the table. Here's what i would love to see happen. Dabo is going to have to use the portal or else Clemson football will be the last team standing alone yelling "the portal is bad!!" My second course of action would be to give Riley the con. The full con. As in Dabo is the Captain of the boat but he trusts his leaders fully until they prove they arent capable. Why is the OC even on the sidelines and not up in the box??
Just my two cents on this year and this week's limericks. Always a Tiger.

Not sure Dabo is opposed to the portal. They just haven't had many slots to fill and have missed on a couple of linemen. Maybe it's better to say he's open to the portal, but hasn't embraced it fully (financially). Sorta like being on that first date.
I think as he moves forward and has some gaps to fill, you'll see him try to use the portal to bring in fifth year seniors or grad students. Certainly will need some additional OL help in the near future.
Enjoyed your post.

Dabo sure seems opposed to the portal.

Based on the fact that he hasn’t actually used it to address positions of need, and has even gone out of his way to criticize it.

I'm guessing Navy, subs? Just a hunch.

I'd like to see Dabo get asked about why we are still seeing the same issues this many weeks into the season. I'm curious as to what his answer would be.

I think he's the right man to correct the problems, but am I wrong to think we'd see some sort of progress during the regular season?

Not a seaman but thank you. Dare i say .... Air Force 😳 Let the bombing commence. I've only been called a coot once so far and im a little butthurt about it.

Well said, but easy answer to your question:

It takes actual coaches to correct mistakes and develop players. We have only former players on the Offensive side of the ball besides Riley who is hamstrung by the aforesaid extended family.

The defense has had problems this year and in the past, but you’ve seen many mistakes get corrected ala Coach Reed with Wiggins last year. Coaching occurs on that side of the ball. Dabo’s offense does not get coaching, just hugs and kisses.

Your reply is very well said.


Nov 2, 2023, 9:00 PM

ie. Dabo is soft.

Why will not one reporter ask that question?
Everyone that watches Clemson play wants to know why it hasn't been corrected.
I know everyone has their opinion as to why it has not improved, but it would be nice to hear it from the man in charge.
