1. He can succumb to his ego and refuse to adjust to the changes in the reality of college football -
in which case he may continue as he has at Clemson and they will struggle to fight their way into the Top 25 for years to come. This will hinge of the strength of Clemson University and fans' desire for championship caliber football versus continuing to turn out fine student-athletes, ie Clemson Gentlemen.
(or he could go to a smaller university and be allowed to continue to put his own spiritual mission above his football mission)
OR
2. accept that the landscape of college football has changed and that he has to deal with that. This path may allow Clemson to compete at the championship level, but it will challenge Dabo's spiritual mission of creating the type of young men that HE (Dabo) deems to be proper. Can he manage his personal vision and ego enough to still guide young men through this new landscape ? Can he re-calibrate a balance between his football mission and his spiritual one ??
Personally, I am supportive of Dabo's spiritual mission although I worry that it is too strongly based in his christian religion than it should be in a public institution. I believe that Clemson University could continue to graduate fine Clemson Gentlemen (and women) without proselytizing unfounded christian mythology to our young men and women.

Really seemed well thought out til I got the end… never miss a chance to take a swing at organized religion? Or is it just Christianity? Either way, God bless you. I’m glad Dabo has the determination he does to lead these kids towards Christian principles. The world needs more of that, and at the end of the day, football is always temporary.

Yeahh never fails, but I bet he doesn't have an issue with teachers throwing the rainbow flags and trans stuff in kindergarten classes and forcing that loony behavior on young kids. Those Christian values Dabo has pulled a lot of kids/parents to this school too.

crocker,
Could you name some of these christian principles of which you speak ?
Oh, and the entire post was all well-thought out. You just disagreed with the end because your christian mythology is not well thought out.
And finally, all of life is temporary.

I have faith that there is another life. Faith, by definition, is holding a firm belief or conviction despite a lack of tangible evidence. Refusing to believe in another life is not due to a lack of evidence, but to a lack of faith. I have read enough of your drivel on here to know that you are fairly well-versed in Christian doctrine, so I'm not going to waste my time sharing the gospel with you. You have chosen your beliefs and must live with the consequences of that decision. As to your last question, I do not fear death. That's what faith does in your life. I know that when I take my last breath on this earth, my next breath will be in heaven. Pack your shorts, Tobias. It's going to be hot where you're headed. Now go pick a fight with one of the other kids

Nothing about this post is in any way related to scholarship limits. And there are no scholarship limits.
Reading between your always blurry lines, I assume you are talking about the roster limit, which is 105. That is 20 more people than we've been able to recruit at any other point in Dabo's tenure. That means you are the one that does not understand the current limits.

That is not true. The school can offer anywhere from 0 to 105 scholarships.
What they can't do is have 105 on scholarship and 10 walk-ons in addition.

Partially true. Current players are grandfathered so the roster can exceed 105 until these players graduate over next few years. This has an important impact as a head coach can choose to allocate a full scholarship to a former walkon instead of acquiring a scholarship transfer or additional scholarship high school athletes. I’m willing to bet Dabo will maintain former walkons within the 105 roster limit for as long as possible.

I'm not talking about the grandfathered-in players. Put that aside. I'm talking about the new rules. There are NO SCHOLARSHIP LIMITS in any sport. There are roster limits (football is 105). Schools can decide how many scholarships to offer to their players...all, none, or anything in-between. It is not required for every rostered athlete to be on scholarship.

Dabo's loyalty and overvaluing of his "roster talent" has clouded his judgement on how "good" we were.
There have been PLENTY of opportunities for him to address needs through the portal.......PLENTY.......and he's failed to even try (except lightly this past year.......and wouldn't you know it......2/3 have looked the best when given the opportunities).

It’s really simple. Dabo will be aggressive in the portal this season. Through our guys entering the portal and recruits decomitting, he will have no choice if he wants to field a team. Either that or we go to battle with a bunch of 2 stars and walk ons. Ironically, Dabos own stubbornness has forced his hand.

We haven’t signed portal guys because there hasn’t been any room or need for them.
We arr nationally prominent in NIL.
Nothing needs to change unless you want to talk about having that great QB.
You pOrTaL champions will likely get your wish this year considering the attrition, but at no point in the last 4 seasons could we have brought in more than we did.

Says the guy that can not post without bringing the QB into the conversation.
Oh, because you believe things to be fact when it’s not. It’s your opinion. Nothing more. You parrot “we would be 3-1 or 4-0” and say “QB effects the whole team” but refuse to take into consideration that opposing teams could and would change their game plans in the 3rd quarter if Cade is playing well. Refuse to see the defense is rated way lower than last year’s unit (29 vs 74). Allllllll of the evidence points against your theories. Yet you spew them as fact and stick your head in the sand. THEN tell other people to stop with their theories that line up more with logic?
You’re a special one. No doubt.
Still waiting on you to admit that the 2020 passing game was not, as you’ve stated 37 times, the most prolific in history.

He can still mentor portal players vs. non-portal players, and those making more money than others. There is no conflict with his faith or his values there. Before, he thought it would ruin a culture built on loyalty to the players he spent a lot of time getting to know before he offered them a scholarship. Now, I think he realizes he has to treat the portal as just another recruiting tool and opportunity to fill needs and keep it in balance with developing a comprehensive roster of the best talent available, no matter where it comes from.

There’s actually quite a bit of evidence of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. It’s fine if you don’t believe it. Certainly not everyone will. I’m sure you believe all the stories of Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and George Washington even though you never met them or anyone alive ever met them.

walked this earth, followed the law of God, overturned the religious establishment that oppressed the common Jewish person, showed and demonstrated unconditional love while calling people of faith to repentance, was crucified on a Roman cross because the Jewish religious establishment did not view Him as their Messiah, even though He specifically came to redeem them first, was buried in a tomb of a Jewish Pharisee who did believe He was the Messiah, and left an empty tomb. This is not only corroborated by disciples who walked with Him, but by historian Josephus and Tertullian.
But, don't let that fact get in your way.

See beyond black and white. If it were easy we wouldn’t have to pay such high salaries to these coaches. They are where they are because they’re trusted to find solutions in the gray area.
Dabo needs to find this in the new era of college football. I sincerely think Dabo can find a way in this gray area without fully selling out his beliefs. However, it’s naive to believe he can make us relevant again without making compromises on some of the ways he’s done things up til now.

That seemed like a lot of words and effort to get to “unfounded Christian mythology,” which seems to be the only thing you really wanted to post.

You could have ended your post after the word "proselytizing", but you didn't. You chose to add "unfounded Christian mythology," which has nothing to do with Dabo's proselytizing. Let's not pretend you weren't trying to be provocative.

Based upon my experience with non-believers/seekers/other religions:
- pride in themselves thinking they control their life - guilt - hypocrisy of a few people who claim to be a Christians (but aren't) - going to church weekly or a few times per year does not make you a Christian. - Christians believe in three gods - Father, Son, Holy Spirit. - Belief they are good by their standards (or societal standards) and that their good outweighs their bad in the eternal scales of justice. - They believe that this life is all there is.

I certainly believe that my life is fully my responsibility.
I have seen no evidence for any eternal scales of justice.
I have seen no evidence for a life beyond this one.
BTW - what am I feeling guilt about ??

fans deem so important about our coaches like Bowden and Dabo. Now, I understand it's very important to them personally, of course, no problem with that. But it's totally irrelevant to the jobs they perform. Dabo is making the equivalent salary of a Fortune 500 CEO. And I can promise you that religion doesn't come up in those interviews or the hiring process. Because it's immaterial.
How about John Wooden, was he a good Christian man? Vince Lombardi, Bear Bryant, Red Auerbach, Woody Hayes, Chuck Noll, Phil Jackson, Tom Osborne, Dean Smith, etc? What were they? ... Catholic, Protestant, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Atheist, etc? Nobody knows, and nobody cares. They coach sports teams for a living. Their personal religious convictions are simply not part of the job description.

In Christianity and "callings" there are "phases of Ministry", and perhaps God called Dabo Swinney to Clemson, for only for a time. Perhaps the reason for his declining success at Clemson is God sending a message to him. No phase of ministry lasts forever, and it's ironic that after 2020, things seemed to regress in the program, this isn't an accident or aberration. He could be entering into a new phase of his journey as a Christian, a transitional change in his walk with the Lord. It seems it's time for him to move on from Clemson and enter a different phase. He has been at Clemson for 17 years as an assistant and a Head Coach. The implosion of the Tigers progress and seeming decline is speaking volumes, and maybe he's ignoring it. It's been a 5-year gradual slide from elite status to a "very average" to almost lowly football program. This season (2025) is the pinnacle of the program's deterioration, and a losing season (5-7 or 6-6) appears to be possible. He loves the Lord, but he needs to allow the circumstances to speak to him and listen. Next season could be worse than this one if he doesn't take heed to it. Paul Finebaum and the rocks on the ground are telling him to move on from Clemson, and he is ignoring those voices. Maybe he should leave coaching altogether, or move to another school, because it seems to me something is awry in his career path. Just speculating. When a new transition is in order, it's wise to take heed and move in that new direction.

I’m an independent voter and a never Trumper. The problem I have with Christian nationalists is that they are trying to force their religion on everyone else. I can’t speak for others but it’s a total turnoff for me. You have an obvious heathen leading the MAGA party which btw is very different than the conservative Republican Party we all knew.
As for organized religion and the Bible, there’s really no way to know if everything or any of the Bible is accurate since none of us were alive then. That’s why belief is called faith. You have faith that what is in the Bible is true. To say you know it’s true is just your belief and faith that it is true. I’m a see it to believe it kind of person so that’s why I’m not sure. I’m not saying it’s not but I just don’t know.

Tater, what is a 'Christian nationalist', and how do they relate to Christians? I have heard the term, but really don't know what it refers to. And, more perplexing, what do Trump, MAGA, and the Republican party have to do with Christianity? By tying all of that into religion, I can see why your faith in the Bible could be compromised. Trump may or may not be a Christian. I have my thoughts on it, but they are purely guesses. But, by my faith in the words of the Bible, I know that God will use the saved and the lost to do good works for His people. Are all of Trump's works for good? Absolutely not. Are they all for evil? No again. The point is that God is not Republican or Democrat. And neither should we be. Dr. Tony Evans said that we are to be 'Kingdom Independents' and vote for the policies that most align with the teachings of the Bible. I pray for your clarity 🙏

Tobias, if you live in the upstate, I would love to buy you breakfast and talk about the overwhelming evidence for Christ. Let me know. Everyone has faith or worships something. Christianity is the only thing that makes sense in the end. In the end “every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord”. I prefer doing that with joy and reverence instead of terror and compulsion, based on the evidence I see and have seen personally. Maybe I can put some water on the seed.

Everyone has a right to believe as they see fit. I don’t like one’s beliefs forced on anyone. I would like to think that the way I live my life is a statement of what I believe. The problem with our society today is that if you push back against anyone’s beliefs, morals, etc. you are labeled as antisemite. I believe what I believe and will continue to do so. You believe what you believe and live your life. I can like all of you because we do have one thing that binds us together: We are all CLEMSON TIGERS 🐅🐅

So glad you have it figured out. Basically you are saying we need to lower our standards of young men that represent the university so that we can compete. Maybe you should send Dabo your phone number so he can check in with your well thought out philosophy. It is so refreshing to hear from those masquerading as head coaches from behind their keyboards that obviously have everything figured out and the solution includes less values.
Bet you're fun at dinner parties
