No, he also had to make a 10 hour bus ride alone, was ejected from the game etc. What would you suggest? A guillotine?

Uh... Dabo Doghouse is a scary place to be. He's suffering in ways we don't even know about.

Proof of how how overblown this is

The NCAA rule is 1/2 game because it’s just not that serious - the only guy getting hurt in that situation is the puncher

Probably some other internal things as well that we dont know about. I trust the coaches to handle this. Good kid made a bad mistake. No sense harping on it.

Dabo has earned the trust of the fans...
Oct 21, 2019, 8:58 AM

...when it comes to discipline. He knows far more about the situation than any fan. Fans have no idea what other punishment he is facing this week.
When it comes to disciplining his players, one rule should apply: Trust Dabo.

I suspect that drawing the ire of Dabo and the corresponding internal consequences will be far more punitive.

I’ll get attacked for this but what the HeII, Tigernet Zoo is run by the animals so I expect it. I was embarrassed for my University, for the coaches and for the rest of the team. Someone mentioned that he was on “ national Tv and that somehow excuses his behavior? Being a member of a high profile, national Championship team and given a stage in which to perform is an honor most will never get. To much is given, much is expected. I was mortified to see him slam that guy on his back and took a swing at him trying to ram his fist near the throat. It was embarrassing and he deserve whatever punishment Dabo dispenses. To be honest, if this had been done to a Clemson player we’d all be up in arms wanting the harshest penalty for whoever did it. Just saying we need to be consistent.

You are embarrassed by the actions of an 18 year old that

you don't know just because he happens to play for your Alma mater?
It was no worse than Wilkins' nut grab except that he got caught.

HeII, I’m embarrassed by the action of grown men here on Tigernet and they aren’t on display on a national broadcast. Yes, I was embarrassed and I’m taking it that Dabo was as well.

What consistency are you looking for? ..
Dabo had always gone beyond the SEC minimum in his disciplinary actions.

I’m talking about consistency among the fans, us. Not Dabo or coaching staff.

That sounds about right to me. Also everyone is giving this man such a hard time. What was being done to him to elicit the response of throwing a punch. The punch is not justified however I don't the the Louisville guy is totally innocent either.

A fight occurred on a football field. The player was ejected, will serve at least a half suspension, had to ride the bus home instead of flying with his team. The seniors expressed their displeasure with him, and Dabo stated on Sunday that he will handle the rest internally.
It wasn't a good look for Clemson, but lets not make it into more than it was. He punched a guy in the helmet. It hurt him way more than the other guy. He will serve his punishment and move on. Just because he made a mistake doesn't mean that he needs to be crucified. Dabo is especially adept at punishing players in a manner that drives home his point, but also lets them know that he cares.
If it happens again... then we worry. Until then... trust Dabo to handle it and move on.

Raekwon got nothing for his three blows to the back of an LSU player last year.
