Dabo learned this early on and hired great coaches. During this time, Clemson thrived and won two National Championships. He then got the big head and replaced those coaches with former players. Clemson is nowhere near what they were.

We used to joke that Dabo was just a big cheerleader. That's what we're stuck with now.

Dabo is a cheerleader but knew what was necessary. It started going downhill when he forgot. Dabo without great assistant coaches is Bill Belichick without Tom Brady.

We followed Arkansas lead from a year earlier and hired someone who had no proven Head Coach experience nor ever been a college OC nor DC. How did that work out for Arkansas?

That might work in a basketball-first conference like the ACC when you are one of the few football-first schools in that conference. It takes guts and stupidity to try it in the SEC.
