Can't really blame him here

From Dabo's perspective there's no upside to speaking out on this issue. You either upset the students (who's support you need at every game) or you upset the administration who literally just gave him a generous (and well deserved) raise

I agree completely, but at the same time this is the first occurence where I find myself disappointed in Dabo.

Previously, He has always stuck to his guns and said what is right. Has greed turned another great man down the wrong road?

If Dabo really wanted to look out for the students, and not just himself, he would have stipulated that in his contract, or stood up when this news came out and said 'No'. He may not have the power to change the policy, but he could surely influence those who can. Realistically, Dabo could pay for all of the lower-deck student tickets with his new salary.

Apr 13, 2016, 2:24 PM

What are u talking about???? Not Dabo's job at all...besides, as he said, he doesn't know any of the details on the situation so he's not going to speculate, like someone such as you who is ignorant to the situation yet still chooses to voice an opinion....You should adhere to the old sentiment where you can remain silent and have people question your ignorance or open your mouth (or post) and remove all doubt!! You have NO idea how much Dabo has already done for the student body & the University as a whole! If you did, you wouldn't make such an ignorant statement.

And you're so enlightened on everything going on?

Please.

Re: And you're so enlightened on everything going on?

A #### of a lot more informed than the idiotic reporter who asked the question & I'd be willing to bet, way more informed than you, period!

That is such an immature response.

badge-donor-05yr.jpgmilitary_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Good answer by Dabo. Probably knows it could be detrimental


Apr 13, 2016, 12:37 PM

to our homefield advantage, but respects the chain of command.

Very Obvious trap set by idiotic reporter!! Dabo is


Apr 13, 2016, 12:45 PM

smarter than those morons!! Additionally, Dabo's job is to recruit, help train & educate excellent young men in the football program and win games. He doesn't need to get involved one iota in ticket prices & student policy...he's exactly right...that's someone else's job at Clemson! The reporter was exposed as a doooouche!

Apr 13, 2016, 2:23 PM [ in reply to Very Obvious trap set by idiotic reporter!! Dabo is ]

Yes, you are right, completely a trap. He gave the best answer he could.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

LOL...a trap? The very job of reporters is to ask


Apr 13, 2016, 2:27 PM [ in reply to Very Obvious trap set by idiotic reporter!! Dabo is ]

questions like this.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sure it is....


Apr 13, 2016, 2:32 PM

but when a reporter asks a question of that nature, a trite or predisposed response like the one given by Dabo should not be unexpected.

Of course.

Good job by Dabo, and the reporter.

BTW...I'm sure you've noticed the Braves are 0 - 7


Apr 13, 2016, 2:37 PM

and may not win a single game in April.

You still feelin' good about the likelihood of them winning at least 60 games?

102 is still a lot of games to lose, and it's rarely done.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

And Dabo's job to give an accurate answer which he did.***

Dabo's Job is to Coach a Football Team.....


Apr 13, 2016, 12:51 PM

This is the cost of big league football. I like being a fan of a problem that is considered among the elites...We have been out in the desert a long time and this is the nature of the beast

Great, as well as a smart answer by Coach Sweeney. His responsibility is to run the Football Program. He does a fine job managing the Players on the field. He also does a fantastic job ensuring the Players get an education and graduate with a degree. Clemson Football just announced, by the way, is once again in the TOP 10% of University and College Academics in the nation in Football !!! GO TIGERS !!!

Uncharacteristically for Dabo, he sounded very uncomfortable answering that question.
