Clemson Blues Brothers


More and more impressed with Dabo. Right or wrong, one of

the knocks on CTB was his 'perceived' failure to embrace former players, a move that only galvanizes the "One Clemson" ideal.

Jeff Davis is one of Clemson's great ambassadors.

Fantastic hire!

a wrong perception I might add

It wasn't uncommon to see maybe 20 former players on the sideline at any one game in recent years.

Goodness, one of the more touching things that Tommy Bowden has done at Clemson was to bring Charley Pell back to speak to the team, before Pell died of cancer a few years back.

He had Danny Ford at practices. Levon Kirkland, Davis, lots others were involved in the program, including recent NFL guys like Whitehurst or Leroy Hill have been involved. If anything, Dabo is furthering a trend, rather than starting something new.

To bring Davis over is important, lest we forget, everyday is something new as a head coach for Dabo. He needs all the help he can get. I'm glad he is asking for help, which lots of folks won't do.

I don't think that is exactly right. Bowden was not interested in seeing anyone from Ford's era..even former players a part of the team. TDP and Billy D asked Coach Ford to come to a practice and that was the only one he ever went to. He said it in an article not too long ago. Jeff Davis is the only reason old players came around and he caught *&$# for it. Did anyone else ask Pell to come before he was on his death bed???

poppa, a lot came out in the late 80's & 90's about

Coach Pell which was very telling.

There is a video on his trials with depression, etc.

I think it wasall class that he was asked to speak with the team.
