BRENT AND TONY ??

OU The Sooner's Your new Boss hired you to win games!! ??? you're already setting the wrong records.
UVA The Hoos's Your new Boss hired you to win games!! ??? you're going in the wrong direction also. Brennan was slinging the rock all over the field last year!!
Sometimes the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the fence. Good luck with your new Coaching gigs.

I can't blame either of them for wanting to be Head Coaches and giving it a go. Whether it works out or not, the decision to leave was the right move in my opinion. Seemingly, neither of them burnt bridges when they left so I am sure Dabo would welcome them back in some capacity if they ever wanted to return to God's Country.

It is greener on the other side. It's "greener" because their goals are to be head coaches.
Your comment would be like saying it would be better to go to the Citrus bowl and win than go to the playoffs and lose.

Many times the grass is "greener" on the other side because it has a lot more horseSH*! in it.

Check back in 3-4 years and we will know if the grass is greener or not as judging after 1/2 of their first season is folly at best

Posts like these are embarrassing. I'm not saying we should pull for Oklahoma or UVA to win every game they play, but literally pulling against former coaches as some sort of revenge for them daring to not coach their entire careers at Clemson is pathetic.

Ffs, Karen, calm down. No one’s wishing I’ll will toward either coach.

Yep, you're right. I'm the "Karen" in this situation and not the OP who is still salty about 2 of our assistant coaches moving on to take head coaching jobs at other schools.

May be hard on dabo...he was so good and supportive to them. He may have had very mixed feelings about them leaving...all,of the sudden they think dabo has lost the dream or they can do it better as a head coach! Don't know but dabo seems more business and less fun...may be the raunchy qb situation or the plethora of injuries or just getting older and wanting more wins...Dabo still has it and Brent and Tony are still looking!

They take it personally that a coach would dare leave Clemson, even if it’s to be a head coach and get a substantial raise.

clemson2003 100% in agreeance!
You can't be mad because they left. And, when has anyone did it in 6 games?
For both of them coming from Clemson and something they know works: "they have to have time to recruit kids who fit their culture and schemes"!
In year one; you are working with square pegs that have to go in round holes!
So, in no way shape or form is bad starts by their football teams a reflection of their knowledge or knowhow!
You can't be mad they left! Dabo and everyone close to the program were supportive and happy for them as should we all.

You seem mad that Brent and Tony took head coaching jobs. If so, why? They have both had the goal of becoming a head coach and were both extremely careful and patient about their decision. They didn’t rush into it all.
They also knew that they had some rebuilding to do. Many of you seem to forget how rough it was during Dabo’s first few years here. We got worse before we got better.
Using a handful of games for Brent and Tony to criticize them is shallow. We should want to see them succeed.
And no, neither regrets his decision. I can assure you that.

We had one - ONE - season that moved backwards under Dabo. You’re an idiot.

Virginia has a whole new starting offensive line and Oklahoma is playing what would be a 4th string quarterback. OU will be fine in a couple of years. Virginia hopefully sooner with that division be so weak

With the new dynamics in college football IMO it takes more time to build winning teams. Fans are going to show patience or continue to pay former HC’s a salary while trying to put limited funds into the football programs to keep of with the have’s like Bama, OSU, Texas, and schools like UGA. I believe they both deserve at least 5 years. Who knows what kind of problems Lincoln Riley left in OU and the fromer Virginia HC left for Tony to clean. If you remember it was about year 5 or 6 when things really started clicking for Dabo.
IMO inpatient fans hurt programs as much as anything.

The gas is greener if you look at their wallets. They made more signing these contracts than most of us in our lifetime. It is better to try and fail than to not try at all. It takes time to transition a staff and get the players. Some on the board complained when they were at Clemson too.

Both TE and BV had a lot of the players to transfer and add graduation to that and you have rebuilds by both coaches.
