Whole Team Traveling to Alabama..

Do you guys think Coach V will pack up the whole team and travel to Alabama to support Dabo during his fathers passing? Would be a huge gesture & example of Clemson family. #allin

something in the NCAA rules that forbids such common sense gesture.

of the team.
no players allowed where Ministers show up, and Coach Swinney's going to have to watch what he says in respect the passing of his Father - he is a "government employee" after all.
you know how it is, those funerals have always been real hotbeds for "hate speech" against non-religious folks...

Not a chance. Dabo never would hear of the team missing one of the limited number of practices and added travel fatigue for that, even though it would be a nice gesture.

I'm sure a few Clemson faculty will attend if nothing else.

Probably a large expense too....but man what a statement of family that would make. It would be chilling!
Prayers for Dabo & his family.

So instead of resting, healing up bruises, getting their bodies recharged and the mandatory therapy many are undergoing they should just forget about that and spend all that time to attend the service. I don't think for a moment Dabo would allow that, even if he thought it were a good idea. Dabo knows how important this day is for the team. I admit it is a nice thought, though.

Guess they could rest & heal on the 5hr bus ride, but with the start of 2 a days tomorrow, don't think it's possible anyway.

I would think Dabo would do best to return and see a team 2 practices better than before. But I agree it's an extremely nice idea.
Nice username by the way!

Don't we lease the busses anyway? A very nice Iptay donor surely wouldn't mind taking care of that for a day.
