Clemsom

Maybe he has more depth of character than I credit to him, but IMO, he is a man who failed to change with the world. Imagine a world in which Clemson had invested in NIL rather than Dabo. Aren't you glad that world doesn't exist. (Or if the parallel universe thing is true, aren't you glad you don't live in that one?)

On the other hand, noboby is a bigger believer in NIL and the portal than Beamer and here we are.

It doesn't work that way. To be a great coach, you need to be able to be the CEO of a major organization that recruits high school students, recruits experienced players, develops their strength, builds their mental toughness, relentlessly demands improvement in football skills, hires good coaches, manages his roster, does good game-planning and holds everyone accountable. I think Dabo is a good CEO, but I question if he understands all of the pieces or just caught lightening in a bottle.

Dabo missed a major change in the landscape and failed to adapt.
Beamer saw the change and took his eye off the ball in a lot of other areas.

Dabo just said, “I just want to see us fight” going into the 4th quarter. He knows it’s over. No hope to win in his voice, just wants to avoid a blowout.

Clemson seems to have a locker room problem. The players have packed it in for the season and the only hope is to play younger players. Time will tell how that will work. Cade Klubnik talking about the Syracuse players faking injuries is exceptionally tone deaf and immature so we know he isn't a leader.
