Since he's the co-DC, I assume he's responsible for 50% of the problems.

One would assume. But he is part of the friends and family program, so he might be safe.

Hall definitely does. He was on the 92 team with CDS
Wes has been here for 13yrs, Austin was one of his players and Streeter was a internal hire that was a Clemson grad. By all accounts they were part of the F&F plan

I still feel like Dabo would create a position somewhere within the program for Conn.

Give him a pretend job and an office right next to Robbie Caldwell and they can both laugh all the way to the bank.

It comes with the territory of the role of which he is in. That role is Co-DC if you aren't aware.

Everyone has always complained about Conn and what his true roll really was...He's a grifter and needs to get gone...his lone job was to deliver Nkemdiche and he couldn't convince his fat crooked politician momma while she was playing politics over in the bush...

How are these guys that helped Clemson win 2 Natty's all of sudden clueless and part of the problem. But instead you would rather replace them with coaches that have never helped lead a team to such success. At the rate we are going in a couple more years we will have an entire staff that have never achieved that level of success.

Depends on who we bring in

If it's someone like Banks or Leonhard - who's also a safeties/DB coach - then I think Conn will be moving on as well or getting reassigned to off-field role.
Need to make sure land a great hire for coaching LBs...Woodaz & Brown would be a heck of 1-2 punch on that level w/ right coach.

I would think his future is tied to the new DC hire..

For example, if Jim Leonhard is the hire I would assume Conn will move positions to a support role or be let go as JL is a Safety/DB coach and we would then bring in or promote someone for LB coach.

Yes, thats his title. So is co-DC.

But what does he actually do? Dabo never mentions him. When was he last interviewed by anyone in the media?

Conn is not going anywhere. Let me repeat...Reed will be the fall guy. Just look at what's happening. All of a sudden Dabo wants a DC with DB experience. I think we can all agree with certainty that Reed is one of the best CB coaches in the game and prior to the hiring of Conn, he coached CBs & Safeties. His last year coaching that position he had 3 of the 4 players in the secondary drafted (MacKenzie Alexander, TJ Green and Jayron Kearse). The only players Conn has gotten drafted were Muse and Wallace who both were originally Reed's recruits. We can all pretty much agree the problem with the defense last season was DE's unable to set the edge and LB's and Safeties with no speed who took bad angles that couldn't stop the run. But all of a sudden you want a DC with DB experience but the run defense is the problem. Does this make sense? Why not hire a proven DC who coaches LBs like Charlie Strong? This really doesn't make much sense unless for some reason Dabo wants Reed gone because he's unwilling to accept be passed over again for DC. My point is the you can bet $500 to a penny Reed is out and the chance of Conn being let go is about as much chance as a 1 legged man in an @ss kicking contest.

Not saying he isn't going anywhere but he was in Fort Mill recruiting today. So obviously that decision has not been made yet.
