I dont know how good this guy is but Bama got Steele so there is that working against them.

I would think this guy could dissuade kids from visiting Auuburn so that could be helpful

The Turnipseed name is an old state of South Carolina family and does have some history with Clemson. You would think this man does have roots in SC even though it may be long agao. Welcome home!

More late breaking news--Will also oversee 'The Rock"....

put that degree in geology to something useful

I kind of figured Brad Scott would get this job***


May 30, 2013, 11:22 AM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I would hire any man that knew something about Beaver


May 30, 2013, 11:25 AM

construction.

Just sayin'...

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Does Brad Scott not currenly have this position?


May 30, 2013, 11:39 AM

Or is the recruiting coordinator different?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Jeff Scott is the recruiting coordinator


May 30, 2013, 11:50 AM

Brad is an administrator on the football staff but is well known for his recruiting prowess

All I can say is .......................

if Dabo likes it, I like it!

we've taken the state of Ga. and now he's got his sights on


May 30, 2013, 12:07 PM

the state of Alabama.

The statement from CDS says he will be head of recruiting "operations." Usually operations jobs deal with logistics so Turnipseed will probably be taking care of scheduling visits, activities for the recruits, assigning player hosts, etc.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Bama DABO is setting out to get Clemson a NC no matter what!


May 30, 2013, 12:45 PM

Go DabO & Go TiGERs!

I was wondering about that, too, since I thought Jeff Scott was the head recruiting Coordinator.

I'd rather have Jeff Scott spend more time connecting with recruits and their mama's than acting as a travel agent. Seems like a good idea to have someone else handle some of the logistics to me.

Agreed, but what we've been doing has been working pretty well. If it gets better, then look out. We are going to be very special.

Maybe he can build us that nice weight lifting facility! ??

Anyone read the comments below?

Glad to see most Alabama fans like Dabo, but I don't want them to like him too much! Don't come calling for him later! We like him!

Re: Anyone read the comments below?


May 30, 2013, 5:11 PM

It's inevitable. Dabo will coach at Bama someday. You can't blame a man for wanting to go home and give back something to those from whom he's gotten so much.

Re: Anyone read the comments below?


May 30, 2013, 6:29 PM

True, but can we keep him for several more years? 10-15 at least?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Dabo isn't going to jump ship to Alabama anytime in the


May 30, 2013, 7:17 PM

next 10-15 years, regardless of whether or not Saban retires.

Swinney has already proven that he isn't about money. He seems very loyal to the University that gave him a chance and besides the pressure cooker at Bama is about 10 times stronger than the one in Clemson.

If Swinney keeps winning at Clemson, he will retire at Clemson with the most wins in program history.

So does the crying about recruiting end?***

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

Dabo probably wants to free up some of Jeff Scott's


May 30, 2013, 8:40 PM

responsibilities so Jeff has more time to learn under Chad Morris.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You may be more right...

than you are wrong and realize.
