another school. When Clemson looks for coaches it seems they only look at coordinators or unemployed coaches. It is ok to aim high.

Great hire? What a joke he just went 7-5 in the worst football conference this year. That was a awful decision by Arkansas.

The sagacity of this hire will not be known until 3-4 years down the road, when he can implement his system. He has a bunch of spread players trying to fill his pro set until then.
IIRC, we had a pretty #### good team and one of the benefits to going with Dabo was keeping everything the way it was, but I am not melting down like many are on here.

how have Clemson's hires been so far?
Dec 4, 2012, 4:30 PM

Does anybody remember when Clemson went and hired the DC away from Oklahoma?
I guess you could complain about Clemson hiring those two nobodies for head coach and OC who have led us to an ACC title and two consecutive ten win seasons, along with a top ten offense.

also hired this clown to fill in for Petrino, how did that work out? Also they knew he was in all this legal trouble, yet still hired him. Yeah they get it, about as much as you do

go read their message boards. I like the guy, but he isn't a top 10 coach. If they wanted a great coach, they shoulda went Patterson or Peterson

to try to compare seems to reflect your unhappiness with Dabo. that rings on deaf ears. most everyone sees the progress of the program.

Tommy Bowden wasn't a coordinator or unemployed
Dec 5, 2012, 10:10 AM

He was the hottest coach in the country in 1998 after going 11-0 at Tulane.
And Hatfield was extremely successful at Arkansas.
