An excellent quote about "DECLINE"

A quote by Ernest Hemingway.
When asked how he went bankrupt, he replied: "Gradually at first, then suddenly".
I think we have seen the gradual decline in the last 2 plus years. Let's hope we are not going into the suddenly phase currently. I believe it can still be remedied. But I'm not sold Dabo thinks there is a problem. Or he is not willing to adapt because of morals or ethics.

QUICKLY!!!
however I DO think Dabo sees the problem.
I've said it before.........it's program NEGLIGENCE and he's doing it to prove a point b/c he knows he's Untouchable..........he's not stupid.......he sees the issue staring him in the face.

I assure you Dabo is not untouchable

He defied his detractors and rose right to the top of the hill. And always cared a great deal when criticized. I know this because he always responded. Always. So now he rejects changes in the landscape, and that may put him at a competitive disadvantage. And his detractors are out in force. The risk for Dabo is to be discredited by those who hated seeing him succeed. The narrative is already written and has been sitting in a drawer for the day Clemson falls and they can say Dabo got lucky with assistants like Morris and Venables and generational talent at QB and other key spots, but never really knew what he was doing. And the hatred is there for them to do just that. What he did to SEC Nation will be punished if they get a chance. The fact that no matter who was involved in our success, it wouldn’t ever have come about without Dabo’s vision and guidance, will be dismissed. I think this will hurt Dabo. No matter how much money he made.

Dabo can retire today and sit back and live a life of luxury and never have to speak a word to or about those people you're speaking of for the rest of his natural life. I've heard all my life that he who laughs first, he will also be the first to never have anything to laugh about again!!!

Judging Dabo through your own values.
If he is looking at the downside of the rollercoaster hill, there’s nothing there at the bottom that he hasn’t seen before, and so, unlike most, is much less likely to be afraid or react in a knee jerk manner.

I sure Dabo sees the problem, but even he thought he will have to bite the bullet and turn to the portal, I see no sense in him saying that now. That is the end of the season solution at best. For now he has who has, and has to develop, coach them up and encourage them to be the best they can be. We will see where it goes.
In the meantime Go Tigers!!
