one of the best DL in college football history, not just for us. That's a huge loss.

Definitely wondering who we replace him with. I'm sure Dabo has someone in mind. Not many schools have two DL coaches but it seems to have worked well for us recently with Hobby and Brooks

Maybe we should reach out and see if Chris Rumph may be interested in coming back. I think he left Clemson for Alabama.

if indeed dan retires, look for either mickey conn or lemanski hall to move into that slot.

Hobby could just coach the entire DL
Jan 13, 2017, 9:05 PM
|

and Dabo could hire a full time LB coach like Hall

I expected his retirement. Robbie Caldwell OL 63 on 1.26.1954 won't be far behind.

Brooks has been the best DT coach for at least 15 years, if not longer than that. One may be found to be similar but better is not happening.
Huge loss!

I'm not loving this post-natty party at all right now! Losing 8 to the draft, 2 transfers & now our revered DL coach is retiring?! Let's hear some good news! Y'all are killing my buzz!

You know he's a traitor that bailed on us for Alabama and started telling recruits not to goto Clemson because "you can't win there." Screw Rumph.

Will be the same when others take head coaching jobs in the future as well.
Also, a tenth assistant coach was approved by the NCAA, so we should be adding two assistants if Brooks is indeed retiring. Probably DT and special teams

Won't happen. He kinda threw Dabo under the bus when he left. Said, he "Didn't like the direction the program was going.".

One think that I'd bet my season tickets on is that his Rumph won't be back at Clemson.

Does not surprise me to hear this news. Dabo should immediately hire another DL coach and especially a Special Teams/Recruiting Coordinator so our staff otherwise can focus for 2017. Brooks did a superb job and wants to enjoy the fruits of his labor! I don't blame him.
Go Tigers!
