"According to reports, Koenning will remain with the Tigers until after the bowl, but will not coach the team during the game."

He is getting paid his Bowl bonus and the money due through the game.

Kinda like Tommy was on the payroll for an extra month to cut down his buyout.

Its not that hard to figure out. VK came in this morning and said "so Dabo do you want me back next year?" Dabo said "since you ask Vic, we need to head in another direction on D". VK says "ok Dabo what about my contract?" Dabo says:"we will honor our contract and pay you until December 31st"
So he will officially be on payroll until Dec. 31 as DC but will not coach! Its not rocket science!

Koenning- would be a good DC at KState


Dec 2, 2008, 2:30 PM

Snyder retired once he isn't going to HC all that long. Maybe Vic will be coach in waiting. In any event I'm sure he will have offers.

I think it is a mistake to make this change in the staff. I hope Yabba-Dabo-do can get a solid replacement because Vic's defence has always been solid during his time here.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

This makes no sense


Dec 2, 2008, 4:13 PM

Clemson is 9th in total defense, allowing only 16.6 PPG.

Here's a link: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/stats/byteam?cat1=defense&cat2=Total&conference=I-A_all&year=2008

The one thing you can't do this year is blame the defense. Koenning did a good job and should get a raise. If he's let go, he'll get a better job based purely on the results he's gotten at Clemson.

Expect more changes now that Dabo has the job. He wants to play hard nose football and Vic likes that soft zone crap! Total defense of 9th nationally doesn't mean much. You have to make plays when they count the most and our D did not do a whole lot of that this year! Examples are the Maryland game, the Wake game and the GT game. All games we could have won if we played better on both sides of the ball, but we had the lead in all three games in the 4th quater and when we needed to the D to step up and make a big 3rd or 4th down stop they didn't and they ultimately gave up game winning scored late in those games.

Expect more changes now that Dabo has the job. He wants to play hard nose football and Vic likes that soft zone crap! VK will be fine and land a good job. But he is not the right fit for a Dabo Swinney team! I wish VK the best of luck and I'm all in!

Vic was a major step up from Herring. Bad move letting Vic

go.
Vic's D played a little soft sometimes but he always corrected the mistakes.
IMO.
