Somebody’s feelings got hurt..


Oct 27, 2021, 3:23 PM

Well I’m sorry, when you suck you get called out, no matter what you did in the past. He simply won’t admit the offensive staff has done a poor job and this offense is horrid! Rubs me the wrong way when he claims we are close to being undefeated, that’s simply stupid.

That's the frustrating part. We get it "we're this close to being undefeated" but we're not, and don't blame the fans. Just say we're not great, its on me and we are working hard to get things in the right direction. JMO

Dabo has to walk a fine line of being honest but not throwing his players/coaches under the bus. He admits the O stinks, needs to be fixed, and seems determined to do just that. After 2 Nattys and 6 straight Playoff appearances, I believe he will accomplish what he says.

You would believe people with even the slightest of common sense would understand this. If dabo took some of the messaging from this board to the media and said it we wouldn’t even have a team. No way I could follow a team loyally and act like I have nothing but contempt with everything about the team

Hey, while you're at it, have Sweeney show the media, his staff and the players:

....the 55 million dollar facility that was donated privately.
....or the 81K tickets that are privately purchased every year.
....or the 93 million dollar salary he has.
....the 2+ million that our OC makes to NOT know ### is going on.
....the value of a 100K FREE COLLEGE TUITION (that all these NIL pansies forget about)
....the amount of privately donated money that funds nation-wide recruiting trips to California.

....and then remind them that isn't a sport for p*ssies, pansies, social media wh0res or political activists of any kind (in case last years team and media forgot).

There's no contempt for this team. There is absolutely contempt for a coach who refuses to admit what fans/donors have been screaming....only to then later admit it.

If your offense stinks, you need to tell us why. If your QB sucks. Say it. If Taison (a 3rd-year player) isn't ready due to lack of coaching from Streeter. Tell us why. If the OLINE sucks b/c Caldwell isn't a good coach. Say it. If we lose 4 RB's in ONE YEAR, tell us why....and don't give us that "depth" crap. If the WR's all of a sudden can't catch a ball....how bout some info.

These are examples.....does that help? Or should we break out a box of crayons and draw you a picture?

Really? Is everyday, week, month or year perfect in your life? There are set backs and challenges for everyone and this is just one of those in Tiger town. If this converstation is still happening in 2023, then there is a reason to call out Dabo and everyone else involved with Clemson athletics. No one saw this coming, neither the experts, local reporters, nor fans. But if you think about, who was left from last years offensive team with experience? (Ross - missed a year and recovering)

In regards to the money spent, just how many $millions would you say the 6 consecutive years of CFP bowl and 4 championship games played (with 2 championship games won) and 6 straight ACCCGs won, brought back to the university in TV revenue? Not even to mention increased donations and ticket sales. It more than covers the football facility cost, travel for recruiting and enough to cover salaries for sure. Don't worry, your taxes are only paying about 12% of Elliott's salary and about 2.7% of Dabo's salary.

It sounds to me there are a lot fair weather fans and trolls coming out of the cracks like cockroaches and we all know where the upside down cockroach is located.

I get it, coach speak, but he’s taking it too far by stating we are almost undefeated. I love Dabo like most Clemson fans, and wouldn’t want anyone else leading the program! He’s a great leader and will get things moving in the right direction, but for now he needs to stop selling the bs. I admire the values of the program, but this staff is ultimately being paid to win games. There are a lot of anonymous people out there changing lives of young people and doing for free.

It’s called understanding the mentality of a young person. My son was really struggling in school last year, very bright kid, but had a hard time adjusting to the Covid world. His grades went from all A’s to C and D’s. So to deal with it I start to ask him questions about why he was struggling, help him set goals, encouraged him and reminded him he’s very smart he can do the work, he just has to get through this tough stretch. He’s a kid and his confidence was hanging by a thread.

The worst possible thing I could’ve done is say, “yeah your grades really stink , you suck at virtual learning and if you don’t get your act together you’re gonna end up dropping out of school and living in a van down by the river.”

Dabo absolutely should be defending his team right now, he may may not be right, but he needs to defend them

Dabo unfortunately has been drinking his kool aide the last few years. I don't want anyone else to lead our team, but on the flip side, he has to show a willingness to evolve.

His plan to get to the top was simply incredible. His plan to stay at the top ... not so much.

Things change and evolve. The defense has shown that with a willingness to flex with what your strengths are. The offense has not. There has been a rigid dictation to stay with "what works" instead of trying to make your team successful.

I just feel bad for DJ. The coaches have failed him. And this has led to him failing himself. And by Dabo saying he's gonna be the greatest QB ever at Clemson is just dumb. He's putting needless pressure on him by pumping sunshine.

If I had kids who were being recruited to play football at a major university, Dabo is by far the top coach I'd want my kids to play for.

I never like the "we are close to undefeated" talk either but he did admit the offense has stunk this year. He just asked for patience through one tough year after 10 straight good ones. I was fine with what he said.

Re: Somebody’s feelings got hurt..


Oct 28, 2021, 9:35 AM

Dabo cannot get up in the media and put the finger on the coaching staff. The only problem is that he does come off a little like he blames the players which just falls back on the coaching staff.

At this point whether it is injuries, play development, being synched or whatever you want to list it has to come down to coaching or recruiting. If a player for group of players suck who do you blame? starts with who recruited a sucky player? If they don't suck in their basic skill then who was supposed to develop them? If the offense is not in synch is it not coaching the gets them there? If the QB was super skilled in high school and actually performed well when he played last year, why does he suck now? Coaching?

No matter what it comes back to coaching, but a head coach cannot call out coaching in press conferences. the offseason will be telling.
