I think Dabo may have gone overboard stating that the worst
Jun 12, 2012, 5:59 PM

thing Clemson could do would be to join the Big 12. What happens if we actually do join the Big 12?
So they bash us in recruiting because we're going to the Big 12, and they bash us because we're in the ACC.
Seems like a dilemma really. I feel like in the end, it would even out as far as the "bashing" goes.

Has does Dabo make the BOT look stupid if we end up in
Jun 12, 2012, 6:05 PM

the Big 12? Dabo just gave his opinion, the BOT has to make their decision. But this doesn't make the BOT look stupid.
Now one could argue that Dabo made them look stupid the last three years against USC and the Orange Bowl last year, but I actually like Dabo so I won't make that argument.

no i actually agree that the statements will be used against us if we end up moving.
the funny part was that a couple of threads ago Caddie's name was thrown around as somebody always against whatever Dabo does and then on cue he shows up with this post.
Just ironic that's all.

I am not shocked at all by this and pleased that Dabo came out and bashed a move to the dust bowl conference. Where ya at york tiger? where ya at? GO TIGERS

we overcome what has always been a credibility problem by virtue of being in the ACC. That problem is about to get a lot bigger.

If the SEC new TV deal gets them $30 million/yr. to the ACC
Jun 12, 2012, 7:00 PM

$17 million, not to even figure in the lucrative new SEC/Big 12 bowl game money, is Clemson going to sit still for that kind of monetary gap? If not and we then move to the Big 12, Dabo will look like a DA. And then he will have to sell recruits on coming to Clemson after making, what Dabo is quoted as saying is, a very bad move.
Sometimes Dabo, it's better to keep your mouth SHUT!!!

why he needs to shut up and coach the team. Just because Fl, UGa, USC, and others are whipping us to recruits he has to find a scapegoat...stop quacking...start coaching....

Even ESPN is saying what the recruits are telling them about both CU and FSU.

2. Let’s all forget my recent prediction that Florida State and Clemson would leave the ACC for the Big 12. Not just because the Big 12 has said it wants to stay at 10 members. From what I’m hearing, recruits in SEC and ACC country have made it clear that they aren’t interested in playing in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, etc. Did you notice the news release last week about Tigers coach Dabo Swinney's new contract? Both he and the chair of the Board of Trustees mention succeeding in the ACC for years to come.

So, all the best recruits want to play in the elite ACC..
Jun 12, 2012, 8:19 PM

and don't want to play in the Big 12? C'mon coach. The only real benefit of staying in the ACC is that Clemson recruits SEC-caliber talent, but for the most part, doesn't have to play against SEC talent.
