Wow. It sure is completely different than when I was a student there with Tommy West leading the way. Like comparing a new Ferrari to a Pinto.

I was there when Hootie Ingram and Red Parker were "leading the way." 'Nuff said.

Man reading those stats really makes me very happy to be a Tiger Fan. I bleed orange and purple and it’s so good to see us at this elite level. The stats are going to be even more impressive after this season. Possible 4 straight ACC titles and another Title. I can’t wait til they spot the ball!!! Go Tigers!!!

And Dabo's 101 wins
Jul 26, 2018, 9:14 AM
|

happened in 9 and a half years, not a full ten years. In '08 he was the head coach for only 6 or 7 games and won 4 of them I believe. So, Dabo really has the 100+ wins in less than ten years as head coach. Pretty impressive. Keep it rolling Tigers!

One of the best stats I have heard over the last few years .... 111 players nationwide declared early for the 2017 NFL draft. Only 8 of those 111 players had obtained their degrees and 4 of those 8 were Clemson Tigers. This is the class that included DW4 and Artavis Scott. I heard Dabo say this in an interview last year. This stat really exemplifies the culture of the program and what drives Dabo. Not just wins and losses. So proud to be a CLEMSON TIGER!!!!

Why do we...
Jul 26, 2018, 9:48 AM

Why do we still feel compelled to convince ourselves, and others, that we're elite? We've proven it over and over. We're going to keep steamrolling. Everyone knows it. The self-congratulation is getting old. Spot the ball, and let's win another one.

I don't feel that I have to convince anyone of our Elite status bc if they're that dumb to see it and notice it for themselves, I don't feel that I could be smart enough to convince them bc you just can't convince stupid. And they would believe that you're stupid at explaining it to them. Opening someones eye to facts is much harder to do than you would think!!!

Come on! The Commodores are really, really tough. Remember last year when they were smack talking before 'Bama? Wow! Embarrassing.

Well Bill, you would have to assume that every recruit is the sharpest tack in the box. Once people with good communicating skills puts something in these kids heads, it is truly hard to change their minds especially with the truth!!! Dabo would never lie to a recruit just to obtain a commitment like some of these coaches will. The big money that is being paid to coaches these days, the better at lying they become!!!!!

Saban has had much longer to perfect his head coaching skills than Dabo, but, I believe that he will!!!
