I would not be surprised one bit to find out Bates was...

actually fired by Dabo earlier today. He only played 2 years in the NFL, which is a major red flag, and he wasn't exactly burning it up on the recruiting trail this year. I wish him the best going forward, but if we're being honest with ourselves, we knew this was coming.

Just hope he doesn’t take anyone with him.

This killed me. You sir, are funny. His poetry came off with a hip hop Dr. Seuss vibe. Still hard to knock him too much for wanting to ensure more success under Brent. We knew he was an up and coming young coach.

Plus he's not a Clemson alum

And we all know that is a requirement to be employed by Clemson football these days. Either that or you have to be a child of one of Dabo's buddies. Or at least that's what I read on www.thetigernet.com.

What’s the big deal? You lose a D- line coach. You had never heard of him before Dabo brought him to Clemson. There are plenty more guys out there. Watch and wait for the next Big Thing. It’s coming soon.

Not signing a single DL in this class is a pretty egregious

FM clearly has an understanding on the pulse of something. We knew something was coming.
Another point. Did Bates introduce any recruits at Dabo's signing day program? I do not recall that he did. Another red flag?

So if these things we true, then it totally makes sense that Dabo promoted him to assistant head coach. What they call that, the Peter principle?

Dabo was going to fire the guy that he just promoted to assistant head coach?

Dabo DID just fire the guy he promoted to assistant head coach. I would love to see the new buyout for Bates after the promotion. Glad Dabo got out ahead of this and stuck it to OU.

Our program it’s not even debatable.
It’s clear Bates and Goodwin aren’t on the same page because they never played together. It’s as simple as that…
