I know a lot of folks here don't like him, but this was classy on his part.

STATEMENT FROM HEAD COACH DABO SWINNEY:
“I am super excited for Brent and Julie and the entire Venables family. Man, he’s not only been a great co-worker and defensive coordinator, but he’s been a great friend.

“I’m so excited for this opportunity for him. He’s been very patient. He’s had many opportunities along the way. This was just the right fit for him and the right time with a lot of familiarity for him at Oklahoma. I know he is well-prepared. It’s been fun for me to watch him really grow since 2012, and I’m excited for Oklahoma because they’re not only getting a good coach, they’re also getting a great man who is going to do it the right way.

“His hiring is a great compliment to our program and to all the great players that we’ve had. I’m going to miss him, but at the same time, I’m also excited about moving forward here and the great opportunity ahead. Today is a great day for Brent and his family and a great day for Oklahoma, and the entire Clemson Family and I are proud of — and thankful for — his 10 years here and the lives he impacted in the process.”

He's a little dorky, but he has several rings and several more CCG appearances.
I like him, but might get tired of him if my team and his team were in the same conference.
I like him. I think he's genuine.

Who doesn't like Dabo? He's a class act imo. Gotta remember Brent as responsible for just as much of Clemson's success as Dabo was. Imo.

I can agree with that wholeheartedly. One thing I admire about Swinney is his unbridled enthusiasm. I think Brent has some of that same quality. This "BYOG" (bring your own guts) clip from Swinney is one of my all-time favorites.
