8 plus years later, this did not age well

Just reviewing some HOF posts and I remember when this was posted. I am sure I agreed. My how our views of those times have changed.

This almost sounds like some other team.

Well, Barker and TDP are gone. DRad looks to have aged 20


Jan 14, 2019, 4:03 PM

years since he got here. He's aged like a President. They're working hard and we have everything in place for a good run. Enjoy.

Idiot. I never doubted Dabo.


Jan 14, 2019, 4:27 PM

I guess I could have been wrong, but he had a vision and a plan and was the first coach in a long time to have been given the keys to the program.

Re: Idiot. I never doubted Dabo.


Jan 14, 2019, 4:29 PM

I started doubting after losing 3-4 in a row to the coots. I thought he was gonna get fired after the 5 peat

I'll not very proudly admit to being on the "Fire Dabo" bus

after loss 4 AND 5 to U5C.

People who ##### about Barker


Jan 14, 2019, 5:01 PM

weren’t there during the Atchley and Lennon years.

Atchley was pretty pro student, he used to eat breakfast in Harcombe a couple of times a week, even sat at our table 3-4 times, but he was sooooo jealous of Danny Ford it got him fired.

Don't get me started on Lennon


Jan 14, 2019, 5:52 PM

Don't EVEN get me started.

"...favorite now having done what no Clemson coach in the last 40 years has done, and lost back-to-back games to South Carolina..."

How many times did Dabo lose to USC?

must have been a good poster.

To be fair, Dabo changed the culture. This post was accurate for the time.


Jan 14, 2019, 8:04 PM

Becky Bowman, TDP, TB, etc. were WEAK AF when it came to vision. They played defense not offense. Trying not to screw up rather than taking risks and winning. Dabo knows what's up.

Never has a university owed one man so much.

Or a town. Or local businesses.

Dont ever moan about betting coots by 21


Jan 14, 2019, 10:07 PM

Appreciate how very special these last 4 years have been and how extraordinary Dabo Swinney is as a leader, coach , human being.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I'm probably one of the oldest and most obstinate SOaBs..


Jan 15, 2019, 5:09 AM

on Tigernet, maybe in the world. If your library skills are excellent and you are so motivated you'll find barely a handful of post with my name on them which discussed what I believed to be Dabo's one and only flaw. Rather than anyone having to spend half a day searching for an example I'll restate the only negative thing I ever had to say about the man's coaching.

In the beginning Dabo had trouble controlling the emotional pulse of our football team. I didn't consider it a natural deficiency but something born of youth, ignorance and his adolescent efforts to motivate the players. I have always held the belief that he'd grow into the role but I admit, he may have exceeded my expectations when he built this present dynasty.

Before you ask...

I concur. I also will add he has changed his own emotional


Jan 15, 2019, 7:14 AM

pulse.

I hope he never loses all of it, because it is was he is.

I bet the only person who does not think he exceeded expectations is Dabo himself.
