Confused with the coaches responses


Nov 25, 2018, 6:36 PM

Dabo blasts the media and fans for critsizing the game. Venables himself was 'disgusted' and 'embarrased'. That is a bit perplexing. I'm excited as heck that we won! I was never nervous during the game about the outcome but was certainly frustrated with the defense. Bottom line is the fans and media noticed the amount of yards that other team put up and with potential foes Bama, Oklahoma, etc to come, there are two takeaways: 1. We clearly understand there is a weakness on defense and 2. Venables will more than likely fix it (or at least cover it up). We as fans are also excited about how many yards our offense put up. The defense is still exciting with the players we have. To me the reactions from fans are that of a mature fan base with higher goals than beating a crappy Coot team although we should relish in what the team has done to the coots in recent years (which im sure is dabos point). We understand what is ahead and are pulling for our team to be as good as they can at every position. Go Tigers!

Just my thoughts.

Are there really fans not happy? I haven't spoken with any. Everyone I talked to is happy, just also mentioned the defense was particularly off. Pretty much the same thing we're hearing from the coaches.

check with me know playcalling had DB's & LB's looking to the sidelines when USuC was putting the ball in play and he will straighten it out. Dabo was talking about idiot fans and internet blogs like this one. Pretty easy to figure out ,unless you're one of the fatboys buttthurt over it .

Re: Confused with the coaches responses


Nov 25, 2018, 6:45 PM

You are exactly right. Nobody in their right mind (IMHO) would or should or has, from what I have heard, criticized this team for the hard work that they have put in, their dedication, their effort in winning 5 straight from the Coots, eight 10 win seasons in a row, etc. and to suggest because they didn't like our defense giving up 600 yards that they somehow do not appreciate what these fine young men have done is ridiculous. I bet even Dabo wasn't pleased with that. However, it is two different and distinct issues!

Nov 25, 2018, 6:49 PM

..."Maybe it's time I looked elsewhere" response. I think that was a little bit of a defense mechanism that kicked in as he knows he has a some goodwill capital to burn there. Actually I believe he was just as frustrated as Venables and WE were with the defense...he just chose to defend the program and the win as a whole.

Dabo clearly states that if a 1 point victory isn’t good enough then “it will be time for me to look at other places”.

He say “...isn’t good enough then it’s time seek other places”. Meaning the fans who think that need to find a new team. He’s not saying he is leaving.

That’s what I thought, that he was saying fans need to find a new team if they are disappointed in a 21-point victory.

Dabo and his coaches are doing a great job. They get paid a lot of money to do it. We need to shut up and let them coach and enjoy the wins. If he needed our help we would be on the sidelines with them. Keep running your mouths and run them off and see where that gets us. Go tigers and go Dabo

“Everything is perfect and if you question or complain about anything, you’re a coot” is such trash. Me being happy with a 21 pt win over the coots (even though I had a nice chunk at -25) and saying there are issues that need to be (and I believe will be) fixed are not mutually exclusive.

I agree that the “feels like a loss” crowd need to look in the mirror but pointing out issues we all see doesn’t make you a coot

Wow! This fans unhappy with the blow out win myth sounds


Nov 25, 2018, 7:53 PM

just like the same one the media started when Kelly was benched. You know, the one where the media hosts kept saying the fans didn't want Kelly, didn't respect Kelly, didn't like Kelly....and the only people I ever heard stating any of that were the media hosts themselves. The media in this state would like nothing better than to create wedge between Dabo and the fans so that he would pick up his marbles and leave....IT IS THEIR ONLY HOPE TAHT THEY WILL GET SOUTH CAROLINA BACK ON TOP. I don't care what they do, they are not going to build a better mousetrap than what DABO has at Clemson. So, they will attack any way they can....
