Clemson Football Bear Built


Jul 23, 2022, 9:55 PM

I was watching a video of Dabo and Gene Stallings and it got me thinking of how Paul Bryant's fingerprints are on this program. From Frank Howard to Danny Ford and by way of influence to Dabo the Bear's legacy lives in Clemson maybe more so than in Tuscaloosa.

As a little kid, I was a big Bear Bryant fan - so I’m ok with that.

Bear Bryant never

coached Coach Frank Howard, nor Frank, Bear. Frank played at Alabama under Wallace Wade, who later coached Duke, hence the name of Duke's stadium. They were friends, however.

Bryant and Coach Howard were teammates and roommates at Alabama. When Coach Howard got the head job at Clemson, Bear talked to Coach Howard about coming and being one of his assistants. That never materialized but Bear came close to being Coach Howards assistant at Clemson They were close friends and shared coaching philosophy throughout their careers.
