No...it was just two uncles. Dad made the trip for the spring game, and he wanted his uncles to see the campus. No dad this trip, which was still kind of surprising to me.

I still think he looks like a young Charlie Whitehurst***

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

prompting one coach to do a little dance and proclaim to everyone within hearing distance that “that cat can play!”

Sounds an awful lot like Dabo to me.

The definition of awesome!


You gotta remember that

these camps are for the players, not for the media.

So everything that is done is designed to leave an impression with the recruit, even if it sounds strange to those reading media reports.

But also, our head coach is known to be, ahem, somewhat enthusiastic. So, you may be on to something...

Idk why people have a problem with it.


Jun 15, 2011, 3:31 PM

Dabo is an enthusiastic guy and I'm sure a lot of the players enjoy that about him.

I remember there was an old line some friends told me about a Dale Carnegie course years ago. "If you act enthusiastic-- you'll be enthusiastic." Over the years we've had a few good laughs over that one. Sounds like a Holtz-ism or something

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-74tiger.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I tend to agree that


Jun 15, 2011, 3:46 PM [ in reply to Idk why people have a problem with it. ]

enthusiasm is fine so long as it doesn't approach the 1980 University of Miami kind of enthusiasm, which some people call taunting.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I agree. Good call.***

Could have been Dabo, but I remember a very enthusiastic assistant coach we had at Clemson, albeit he was ony there for a brief time, who woke up a really dead Clemson defensive line. That carried over to the LB's and then to the rest of the whole team. It was Jimmy Johnson, and his antics woke up the entire team and staff. He was the most charismatic guy I ever met, and I wish he had stayed at Clemson. He left to go back to be Head Coach at Oklahoma State when their coach was killed, but he was inspirational. Enthusiasm is contagious.

Hope we get Kelly, but also interested in the Rowe kid***
