Home from a humbling and cold night at the DV. 6 thoughts:

1) Billy Napier should be thanked for his services and sent on his merry way. Dabo needs to hire someone who does not run a Rob Spense finese offesnse but someone who runs a power forward (not side to side) offense. Worst I saw out there since Bama game in 2008.
2) I think you have to give Dabo 3 years to see what he can do. I will still support him in his 3rd upcoming season BUT I would say that he has GOT to produce this coming year. I will be less and less inclined to support him in the 3rd year if his teams continues to play uninspired and mistake prone football.
3) Thanks to the loyal fans who showed up last night and supported your team to the end. Shame on you who decided to sell your tickets to a bunch of Coots. SHAME! Not sure what to think of some Tiger fans these days. It's just not like the old days in more ways than one and it sure sux.
4) 7:00 kickoffs at the end of November in Clemson are not ideal for football games. September and October are another story but late November is a bad time for a 7:00 kickoff IMHO. They are real dark, real cold, and this game could have been kicked off with a little sunlight and still had a night element that made it exciting but also helped everyone get home at a decent hour.
5)The piped in music is horrible. Does our band have any say in this monstrosity?
6)I agree that we need some real leadership from the very top of our university--President/BOT--in regards to our football program and I don't think we have or are getting it now. It was lost over 20 years ago. Clemson needs to change direction before we lose what made Clemson special in the first place. Very unhappy with the committment from our administration. JMHO.
To better days, Tiger fans.
GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!

Question for you about #2
Nov 28, 2010, 4:14 PM

I hope you see this, but I have a question about #2.
What is a successful season next year? Is it 7-5 with a SC win? Is it 8-4 going to the ACC championship, but losing to USC for a 3rd time?
This is what I'm going to find interesting next year. What is acceptable?

Personally, anything less than an ACC championship appearance and beating SCAR will be considered unacceptable. We hired Dabo to get us over the hump, not to rebuild. I'm ready to win the ACC, but I will take an appearance next year as a sign of progress as long as we don't lose to SCAR again. Also, win fewer than 9 games over the season and it should be considered a failure when we are talking about 14 games.

I tend to agree

I think the minimum requirement for Dabo to keep his job at the end of next year is, winning the Atlantic and beating USC. I don't care what the record is, those are the requirements.

not necessarily a certain win #, but an improvement in on field attitude, effort and exicution by our offense. Our recievers give up on routes too easy. Coaches can call the greatest game in the world, but if players don't exicute, it won't work. And exicution is probably 90% desire and 10% coaching
